After clinching the Test series by 1-0, Rohit Sharma and co. will now take the Shai Hope-led side in a 3-match ODI series. The series will commence with 2 ODIs in Barbados while the last ODI is scheduled to play in Trinidad. Meanwhile, broadcasters like Star Sports and Sony Ten are televising the matches of the tour and fans are asking on which TV channel the live broadcast of IND vs WI can be watched. Here, you will know where to watch India vs West Indies ODI live telecast in India. Also, find out which streaming app will provide the IND vs WI action for free.
The series will commence on July 27 at 7:00 PM (Indian Standard Time). One of the reasons, top broadcasters in India are not keen to purchase telecast rights is the time difference between India and Caribbean regions. West Indies’ home ODI matches conclude around 3:00 AM in India, while most viewers are asleep. So, these matches generally get low viewership during the 2nd innings.
During midnight, most of the viewership comes through digital streaming. So, Dream Sports-owned Fancode has acquired the digital rights from West Indies Cricket, and the deal between the two spans from 2021 to 2014.
