India and the West Indies are scheduled to meet in the fifth and deciding T20I of their series at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on 17 October 2026, with both sides currently equal at 2‑2. Held eight Twenty‑20 International matches, the venue shows the hosts with a record of four wins, three losses and one no‑result at M. Chinnaswamy.
A clear pattern emerges across those eight contests: India batted first in every single one and converted all opportunities into triumphs. Although they clinched the toss only twice out of eight, their legacy when marking a target at this ground remains strong.
What are India’s notable victories at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in T20Is?
The standout performance was on 1 February 2017, when India defeated England by a commanding 75 runs. Facing a target of 202/6, Suresh Raina made a century (63) and MS Dhoni added 56 before Yuzvendra Chahal unleashed six wickets in fifteen overs, sealing the victory.
Another tightly contested match took place on 23 March 2016 during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, where India edged Bangladesh by a single run. Hardik Pandya’s death‑benders kept Bangladesh within 11 runs, and Rohit Sharma anchored India’s innings at 121* off 69 balls before Ravi Bishnoi closed out the chase in the second super over. India ultimately won by 11 runs.
The most dramatic match unfolded on 17 January 2024, when India and Afghanistan could not be separated after a drawn main session and a first super over that also drew. Rohit Sharma steadied India’s innings at an unbeaten 121*, and Ravi Bishnoi’s success in the second super over delivered the win.
What are India’s losses and the no‑result at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium?
The ground’s inaugural Twenty‑20 International on 25 December 2012 resulted in a Pakistan victory, where India conceded five wickets. Further defeats arrived in 2019: Australia overwhelmed India by seven wickets on 27 February behind a brilliant Glenn Maxwell century, and South Africa crushed India by nine wickets on 22 September. All three points were taken while India defended first, reflecting a persistent hurdle.
A match against South Africa on 19 June 2022 was aborted without a conclusion, making it the sole incomplete game among the eight venues recorded so far. With the series paused at 2‑2, both sides know the pitch favours sharp, tight contests, especially regarding India’s unbeaten record when facing the first‑innings advantage.
