Player Of The Match
  • 19.6

    FOUR! Blessing Muzarabani to Sherfane Rutherford. Off cutter length ball, off stump on the front foot Slog, thick edge in the air uncontrolled past third man for 4 runs. The West Indies have posted a mammoth 254, the highest total of the tournament so far. Shai Hope and Brandon King provided a solid start before Shimron Hetmyer produced a sensational knock, tearing apart the Zimbabwe attack. Rovman Powell chipped in with a composed half-century, and handy contributions from the middle and lower order lifted the total to a commanding score. The question now is whether Zimbabwe have already conceded too many or if they can mount a spirited chase. Join us for the next innings shortly.

    OUT! Caught. Matthew Forde to Brad Evans. Slower length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, top edge in the air uncontrolled to short third man, caught by Hosein. That's the game. Brad Evans provided some late fireworks, but it was far too little, too late. West Indies have outclassed Zimbabwe in all departments, setting up a dominant win. Chasing a Himalayan total, the Zimbabwe batters soon faltered, losing wickets in clusters and never looking in the chase. The West Indies spinners made full use of the assistance on offer from the pitch, with Gudakesh Motie and Akeal Hosein sharing seven wickets between them to dismantle the batting lineup. Only Evans five sixes in his defiant 43 reducing the margin of defeat, but West Indies still gain a major net run-rate boost to start the Super 8s. Shimron Hetmyer was named Player of the Match for his outstanding performance.
