THE TEAM NEWS

WEST INDIES

  • After their horror show against England in their opening game of the T20 World Cup, West Indies looked a lot better in their clash with South Africa last time out but it was still not enough for the reigning champions to earn the win.
  • They suffered an eight-wicket loss as their bowling unit failed to apply enough pressure on the Proteas but with Evin Lewis looking excellent in that game with six sixes on his way to a score of 56, he will hope to build on that in this contest and lead his side to the win.

BANGLADESH

  • Bangladesh suffered a second consecutive loss in the group stage of the T20 World Cup as they found things extremely tough going against a superb England side with them succumbing to an eight-wicket loss.
  • The Tigers were guilty of not scoring quickly enough and paid the price with England able to reach their target with ease, doing so with 35 balls remaining and there will need to be improvements across the board to avoid a third straight loss.

THE PREDICTION

West Indies and Bangladesh stand at the brink of elimination from the T20 World Cup but the victor in this clash will keep their slim hopes of making the semi-finals alive. The West Indies will be desperate to get off the mark as defending champions but there will be just as much desire from the Tigers as they both aim to prolong their stay in the tournament. Both teams have match-winners in their side but none more so than Evin Lewis and he should be able to lead the Windies to victory.
