India Women and West Indies Women are set to clash in the second ODI on Tuesday, December 24, at Reliance Stadium, Vadodara. India leads the three-match series 1-0 after a commanding 211-run victory in the opener.

Batting first, India posted 314/9, powered by Smriti Mandhana’s stellar 91, debutant Pratika Rawal’s composed 40, and Jemimah Rodrigues’ quick 31. Zaida James impressed for the Windies with a 5/45 haul, while skipper Hayley Matthews and Deandra Dottin added three wickets between them.

In response, West Indies were bundled out for 103. Renuka Singh Thakur starred with a brilliant 5/15, supported by Titas Sadhu and Priya Mishra, who took one wicket each. Afy Fletcher’s unbeaten 24 was the only notable contribution as India sealed a dominant win.

In the previous game, the pitch at Reliance Stadium in Vadodara proved to be favorable for batters early on, as Smriti Mandhana and debutant Pratika Rawal stitched together an impressive 110-run partnership. However, as the match progressed, the surface deteriorated, leading to a steady fall of wickets. By the time the Windies began their chase, the pitch had worn down significantly, resulting in their collapse for less than 100 runs.

Traditionally, this track has been a haven for spinners, offering grip and turn that makes run-scoring a challenge. However, in a recent twist, pacer Renuka Singh exploited the conditions brilliantly, wreaking havoc on the West Indies lineup. This suggests that fast bowlers may also enjoy some assistance, particularly during the early overs.
