The Ghana international has now made five goal contributions in the English Premier League, scoring three and assisting two.
Meanwhile, in an explosive start to the game, Bournemouth opened the scoring through Brazilian forward Evanilson after the striker pounced on a mistake from goalkeeper Alphonso Areola.
However, after the break, the hosts levelled through second-half substitute Niklas Fullkrug before Jarrod Bowen connected to a Kudus cross to give the London outfit the lead.
With 15 minutes remaining, Evanilson netted his second to level the score for the Cherries at the London Olympic Stadium.
The draw leaves West Ham United without a win since beating Leicester City on February 27, 2025.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth have seen their European ambitions slowly slip away after a run of poor results since March.
Graham Potter pleased with draw
Despite letting their lead slip to draw 2-2, manager Graham Potter expressed satisfaction with his team's performance.
He said in the post-match presser:
"It was a game that went back and forward and changed.
"I thought the start of the game, we were OK without being brilliant against a tough opponent that you're always on a bit of an edge against because they've got such physicality and speed on the transition.
"We weren't brilliant first half and I think the second half of the first half tailed away from us too much. They were probably better than us there and then obviously to concede, you're filled with a disappointed feeling.
"And then second half, after the substitutions, we scored and then it was a fully committed, fully focused performance.
I was delighted for Füllkrug because I think he had a real impact. You can see what he brings to the team.
"And obviously, I was happy for Jarrod as well to score, and at 2-1 you hope that you're going to stay there, but a soft free-kick, I think it was, and then we haven't defended the action very well and then it's a point like I said."
Kudus shares role of family in career
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that Black Stars midfielder Mohammed Kudus has shared the remarkable role his mother played in ensuring his dreams of becoming a footballer came true despite growing up in a tough neighbourhood.
Born and raised in Nima, a slum in the Great Accra region of Ghana, Kudus survived various difficulties to make it to the biggest stage in football.
Not many have achieved what he has accomplished as a footballer from Nima despite the avalanche of talents in the area, mostly considered a ghetto.
