Nathan Ellis to Forde, out Caught by Mitchell Marsh!! Back of the hand slower ball dished wide of off stump, Forde looks to thump it down the ground but he didn't pick the variation there. Flew off the cue end of the bat and it is catching practice for the Australian skipper at extra cover

What format West Indies is good at?


Test 8th ranked in ICC ranking
ODI 10th ranked
T20 6th ranked

So i take it their best format is T20?

Zampa to Alzarri Joseph, out Bowled!! The off stump goes for a walk. A wicket in his 100th T20I for Adam Zampa. Quicker and flatter, Joseph had no clue. Just tried to slog down the ground and got deceived by the length there. Past the outside edge and hits the top of off

Alzarri Joseph b Zampa 3(4)
WI 159/9 (18.1) CRR: 8.75

This 6 place ranking was under Powell, so we rewarded Hope who took us to 10th in ODIs with the T20I captaincy....

I wish I made this up or was being hyperbolic but... It happened

i just want this match to END!!!!!!! To bring an end to the most consistently horrible performance by a team in WI colours at home for many a year, if not ever.

This team is full of swipers and wanna be pinch hitters. This is a bang average team, plain and simple

That's because whenever the West Indies team is moving in the right direction, some clown puts a spanner in the works

That umpire so slack to ask for a replay on the run out.

The batsman was not in the frame - should have been an easy on-field call

Shimron Hetmyer:
We lost wickets early so was just trying to stay in the crease as long as possible, bat till the end. I tried to hit as straight as possible and tried to use the wind as much as possible. On a track like this, there isn’t much spin so it is easier to take on the spinners. The idea was to try and get beyond 200. 200 in a T20 game is always a task. I think if we continue to bowl in the right areas, pick up the early wickets then there is always a game to be had.
