WI vs IND 2nd ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips
The second ODI of the three-match series between West Indies and India gets underway on Saturday morning in Barbados at the Kensington Oval. Although the winning margin was only 5 wickets on Thursday, West Indies were completely outplayed by India and never looked like winning the opening match of the series. Read on as we preview this ODI. The match begins in Bridgetown at 09:30 local time.
West Indies were the strong underdogs ahead of the opening ODI and their batting was very poor. However, they showed fight with the ball and will need plenty more of that in this game if they are to be competitive.
India got on top early in the first ODI and never let West Indies back into the match. There were some disappointments with the bat and India will want to be more ruthless in this game.

WI Team News
Only Brandon King, Alick Athanaze and Shai Hope emerged with any credit with the bat from the opening game of the series and we expect the team management of West Indies to keep faith with the same group of players ahead of this match.
WI Key Players
- Shai Hope - The skipper scored 43 runs from 45 balls on Thursday and would have batted for much longer but was dismissed as he took the attack to the bowlers with his batting partners running out.
- Alick Athanaze - Once again, the left-hander looked very comfortable at this level in the first ODI. He hit a six and three fours in his 18-ball innings.
- Jayden Seales - The right-arm fast bowler showed his skills by taking 1-21 from 4 overs in the opening game of the series. He got the big wicket of Shubman Gill and caused others problems as well.
WI Team Form
West Indies have extended their poor run in this format and have now won one of their last six ODIs.

Who will win West Indies vs India 2nd ODI Match?
West Indies do have some strong players in this format but they really are no match for the quality in the India line-up. We have the visitors as the top team ahead of the second ODI.
🏆 West Indies vs India Prediction
After a one-sided contest was ended with only 45 overs bowled in Barbados on Thursday, we expect a closer contest on Sunday. There are some experienced players in the West Indies side and they will need to step up with the bat. However, India’s bowlers, particularly the spinners, were yet again at the top of their game and we are predicting another victory on Saturday.
