This match marked the first time in ODI history that the West Indies scored three centuries in a single inning. It is only the sixth instance overall, with South Africa achieving this feat three times. The team's collective effort propelled them to their highest ODI total, surpassing the previous record of 389 against England in 2019. By the end of their innings, the West Indies posted 405 runs for the loss of 7 wickets, leaving Indian bowlers Gurnoor Brar (2/96 in 10 overs), debutant Auqib Nabi (0/84 in 8.5 overs), and Ravindra Jadeja (2/75) struggling against the onslaught.

This match also marked the third occasion where India conceded over 400 runs on home soil, following South Africa's 438/4 in 2015 and Sri Lanka's 411/8 in 2009.
