Windies take hit in T20 WC Super 8 | SportsMax Zone

[@michaeljordan7733]

Let's call it as it is england out played and out smarted west indies. The last 5 over only going for 43 runs in any tournament is poor. 51 dot balls in a T20 world cup is a crime

[@melchurmoreau5677]

I agree with you, but the injury king suffered changed the game. Trust me if king had to play, let's say till the end, windies could have won the game. No disrespect I agree with you. And windies must rotate the strike, and they need to play more sweep strokes!

[@RaymondButler-h4x]

England and WI are the 2 most exciting teams in the tournament they were 2 previous champions and will meet in the final where WI will put tears in the eyes of England again.

[@tylermartin3173]

The issue last night was the lack of intent by the top order. On such of good batting surface they hard to look to go harder

[@user-km4lo8zz6z]

No matter how much runs chase score he just can’t please you all

[@zeyardmohammed4965]

Alzharri just wouldn't learn, keep on bowling short pitched consistently and ends up in the stands.

[@vivekanand5563]

Chase literally won the first match against PNG (where WI looked shaky) with his batting. Chase has performed consistently with the bat since the beginning of the year. 37 off 20 in Aus which contributed to the only T20I win. Then a century in the 4 day match off just 87 balls. Then he had a good series against Nepal with the bat. Top score of 70 odd. Performed against SA in Jamaica in both games he batted, with that wonderful 67*. More importantly, he has confidence due to his good performances. And yet, this guy thinks 'he is not needed' with the bat. 😂 It is good to have opinions, but it is better to base them on facts and data. Not based on 'feelings'.

[@geraldmontfort5551]

That's why he should bat....doesn't mek sense if he is in the order and they ain't using....they literally playing him as a player

[@aladamson9058]

correct...he seemed to never wanted Chase in the team and even after some stand out performances lately especially with the bat, he's saying he's not needed as a batsman in the team!!

[@zeeqayum4834]

1000% agreed

[@dreymiller8000]

Chase has to stay

[@colingoodridge7346]

Pooran is one of the players must be blamed who bat poorly and drop two catches, pollard did not responsible for pooran dismissal, pooran t2o score is very low before is 97 against Afghanistan, also Andre Russell

[@thinlaybhutia7493]

This man Ricardo is like i would love to see Kraigg Brathwaite instead of Roston.Simply because kraigg has solid defence and bowls some handy full tosses.That's the kind of cricket expert Ricardo is/was.

[@RaymondButler-h4x]

The constant criticism of Charles has made him too cautious he has to go back to his normal game.

[@quriuskid]

If he played his normal game he’ll be out for 12 runs

[@RaymondButler-h4x]

@@quriuskid smh

[@RaymondButler-h4x]

WI strength is in their depth if batting but it will have its off days. This was one of them. They usually are left with alot of potent batters who did not bat.

[@LIME--]

rather have two new openers for the next game . prefer Mayers go from ball 1 and hope try and help him rather than Charles eating up every ball .

[@killswitch4100]

Johnson Charles, Andre Russell, and Romario Shepherd are the players to drop. Brandon King's injury saves me from dropping him, too. He's also been poor. He and Charles are performing 1 in every 4 games. That inconsistency is not good enough to retain your place in any team.

[@zeeqayum4834]

No way they should drop Andre Russell

[@LIME--]

@@killswitch4100 Russel has been fairly good with the ball tho. Charles doesn’t rotate strike at all . Even when he makes a 50-60 runs it comes at almost a run a ball .

[@killswitch4100]

I'd prefer Pooran opening and trying to make the most of the power play. He's our most destructive batsman. Let's bring in Shai Hope for Brandon King, Hetymyer as our # 3, and replace Shepherd with McCoy or Shamar Joseph. 1. Shai Hope 2. Nick Pooran 3. Shimron Hetymyer 4. Sherfane Rutherford 5. Rovman Powell 6. Roston Chase 7. Akeal Hossein 8. Alzari Joseph 9. Gudakesh Motie 10. Obed McCoy 11. Shamar Joseph Yes! I'm dropping Andre Russell. He's been the worst decision-maker as a batsman in our lineup all season.

[@nananana88]

You gotta go for it. England did but Windies too relaxed no urgency

[@MrDayna39]

Chase position in the team should be secure for this tournament, he is a dependable batter and an economical bowler. In T20 cricket, there is not much difference between Hope and Chase as batters, but Chase wins his selection with his bowling. The WI should make it to the semi-finals

[@vishalramadhin1261]

😂😂😂

[@evertonweir4045]

West indies lost one game and now everyone killing them 😢

[@HenryScara]

The loss was a compilation of poor decisions. As usual we blame performances on batting and bowling. This loss is based mostly on field placement. After batting and scored at a rate of 9 per over W.I. went on the field without any attempt to prevent the singles and twos. England went about business taking the free singles and oftentimes turning them into twos with an occasional boundary to maintaining the RRR. The game was lost in the 16th over when the batsmen exploded on some wayward bowling

[@kayjam6965]

The decision to drop McCoy is beyond me

[@BenjiJaggesar]

These commentators ain't know nothing about cricket England is a very dangerous team hetmyr supposed to b in this squad imagine he plays franchise cricket all over but can't make wi team

[@IamJamaican123]

The coaching team analyzing the game off. They are sticking with the big hitters not realizing its not working. Yes on their day they can hurt you, however we somebody who can rotate the strike in the middle overs, Shepherd has not been bowling that well.

[@rogerhinds6583]

They west indies still have to wim both their games and pray that england could beat sout africa and look at net run rate

[@beth1321]

The captain needs to start captaining with the bat. Russel and Shepherd need to be rested. Shepherd didn’t need to bowl after his first over and after Chase started bowling. We need some consistency from Alzarri since he’s the ‘main’ fast bowler. In fact the whole team needs consistency.

[@private-doctor]

Playing 11 Shai Hope (wk) Johnson Charles Nicholas Pooran Shimron Hetmyer Rovman Powell (c) Sherfane Rutherford Andre Russell Shamar Joseph, Akeal Hosein Obey Mackoy Alzarri Joseph

Sticking with Charles would a fatal flaw! Even if King can’t play, Hope and Mayers have to start.

The loss of our highest ranked batter King who never fails in an entire tournament or series is a blow. He had a big one in him.

[@zeeqayum4834]

That definitely shifted momentum towards England. It was a the turning point in my opinion. WI didn’t play well after that.

No way they sat down and came up with that 11, they picked it from a bingo machine. That 11 was not better than the last game.

[@frankwarren9061]

If Mc koy had played instead of Shepherd West Indies would have won.I thought the captain should have bowled out the 3spinners since they started with more economical rate..And Rutherford must come before Powell Then if King had left prematurely who would have scored 200 or more. Pooran did his best. The captain too predictable.

[@kingwallace7888]

Sad to say..the intelligence of the west indies players is not even 55%...basic reasoning ability they lack!....even from the coaches perspective what his Sammy and his team planning to do about having so many DOT balls in a T20 game!...51 dots...we need a proper batsman as an opener...CHARLES is a slugger..no technique...a run a ball in the power play..HOPE must could have done better!

[@leroylivingston9854]

To my knowledge this is the T20 WORLD CUP HETMEYER CHASE SHAI HOPE SHOULD BE ON THAT SQUAD THOSE TWO OPENERS IS Playing 😅

[@ns-dd6mh]

Hetmyer need to be in that team that man play cricket around the world and face world class bowlers so why is he on bench . I think he can bat any order from 1 to 6

[@592guyana]

No proper fast bowling from wi,i would love to see the two Joseph's operating together in a partnership,they would challenge each other,like what they did at the gabba.

[@waynebayley5571]

We aren’t addressing the elephant in the room. Sammy needs to realise that he is not the captain. Is Powell the captain on the field? It seems as though they cannot change what happens on the field. Can a captain engineer what is happening what is happening on the field from the boundary? Sammy needs to let the captain do his job.

[@simonbhola2253]

Correct about Charles he never makes up, Obed was definitely a better option.

[@shanemccarthy7282]

Shepherd is a runs truck he always goes for alot of runs even in the Afghanistan game he went for alot.... It was shocking to me they left out mcoy.... Alzari kept to the short ball and everytime he got smacked the west indies just got the plan wrong this time around... They stuck to the same formula they didn't adapt at all

[@sarfarazhussain5411]

The issue is not the batting, it is the bowling. 180 is still a good score and the bowlers has really failed and especially obed macoy exclusion really stings more. Dont what happened to Romario shepherd?he was not good with bat or with the ball! He needs realise he was selected over obed because he is the best all-rounder in the world in T20 format not because he is a good bowler. Last thing i want to see English media again gloating and talk in a patronising manner. How in the world west indies haven't found a solution to phil salt? Phil salt has been a thorn in west indies side and sammy hasn't found a solution for this man. Now west indies have to win both games and USA will be a tough customer. There is SA who have the momentum of winning streak. Let see how eng vs SA turns out.
