In a thunderous chase of 406 in Guwahati, Shubman Gill punched his 200th run in just 117 balls, becoming only the second batter ever to notch multiple double-centuries in ODIs. The West Indies were pushed into the last over as India pressed on, with Gill's explosive innings turning the match in the 39th over.
Gill’s blistering 200 came with four boundaries and a six to seal the floodgate, and India completed the chase in 91.4 overs, a record‑breaking effort.
Earlier, Rohit Sharma had joined him with a brisk 101 off 75 balls, and together they forged a 255‑run opening stand that laid the groundwork for the mammoth total.
The Indian captain said, "I just kept going straight," adding that the innings felt natural after his 208 against New Zealand in Hyderabad.
With this landmark, Gill joins Rohit Sharma in the 12,000-run club and India now looks ready to carry the momentum into the upcoming series against Australia.
