After clinching the T20Is 2-1, India Women head into the ODIs as the team to beat on home soil.

TEAMS PREVIEW
India Preview
India Womenβs team enters the ODI series with a blend of new talent and seasoned campaigners, led by Harmanpreet Kaur. After a disappointing 0-3 series loss to Australia, the captain will aim to inspire her side to a much-needed victory.
All eyes will be on Smriti Mandhana, who has been in exceptional form, cracking three consecutive fifties in the T20I series against West Indies. Moreover, the opener has smashed four centuries this year and averages close to 60 in ODIs. Mandhanaβs track record against West Indies is exceptional and makes her a key player to watch.
Jemimah Rodrigues has been in solid form and could add valuable runs, while Richa Ghosh and Harleen Deol will aim to stabilize the middle order. Deepti Sharma, with her all-round abilities, will be key to finishing innings on a high note.
West Indies Preview
West Indies Womenβs havenβt been in great form in the 50-over format, losing three out of their last five games. Earlier this year, they were defeated 0-3 by Sri Lanka in similar conditions, suggesting India could pose a comparable challenge.
Hayley Matthews will be key for the team. The all-rounder has been delivering outstanding performances with both bat and ball and is expected to take charge in this series.
Shemaine Campbelle, who has shown good form in the middle order, will also be crucial. Batters like Qiana Joseph and all-rounder Deandra Dottin add further depth to the lineup.
In the bowling department, Chinelle Henry and Afy Fletcher have been consistent wicket-takers, while Karishma Ramharack, Deandra Dottin, and Matthews strengthen the unit further. Together, theyβll need to step up to challenge India in what promises to be a competitive series.
Weather Conditions
The pitch at Reliance Stadium, Vadodara typically plays true with consistent bounce, making it good for batting. Early moisture might help seamers early on, but it tends to ease out as the day progresses. The outfield is quick, and batters can trust the bounce to play their shots. Spinners could find some grip in the middle overs.
The weather in Vadodara will be hazy but cool.
