HARARE, Zimbabwe- West Indies Women head into the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup Qualifier on a winning note, after defeating Thailand women by 151 runs in their warm-up match at the Sunrisers Sports Club ground in Harare. West Indies Women posted 230/6 from their 50 overs, with Thailand Women finishing on 79 all out in 36.3 overs.

Head Coach Courtney Walsh was pleased with the outcome ahead of the first match on November 23 against Ireland, “It was good to get in a practice match in Zimbabwe to get accustomed to the conditions. The ladies went out and did what was required. Deandra and Hayley had good knocks, so it’s good to see the runs continuing from over from Pakistan. We gave all the bowlers a chance to get a feel of the pitch here in Zimbabwe. It was important to get match practice as Papua New Guinea pulled out so we are short one game.”

Need to see Williams getting some scores at the top and Campbelle in the middle against these lower tier teams.

I agree, well played by the ladies, especially Dottin and Matthews who have been in good form of late. Other players will need to step up in the batting department. This will put less pressure on the aforementioned. There are sterner tests to come so it is imperative that they continue to gain confidence and experience from these games.
