🏏ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026: S 8 - Match 44: WI vs ZIMBABWE🏏 - Page 6

Jay: Finals prediction is SA vs NZ — the shellacking India got from them yesterday made me lose hope in them.

Not just you bro 🥲 but… I still think India needed that jhatka to shake themselves up. They have been getting too complacent.

WI 46/1 after 5 overs

jamil akram: "3.3 that deadliest look of Sikander Raza. Even I could feel the heat through mobile screen”.

RR will be happy that Hetmeyer is in form now.

Hetmeyer 53 (20). 👏

19 balls taken by Shimron Hetmyer makes it the fastest T20 WC fifty for the West Indies. The previous quickest was his own 22-ball against Scotland at Eden Gardens earlier in the tournament.

Sikandar Raza to Shimron Hetmyer, SIX, fastest fifty in T20 World Cups for West Indies! Hetmyer raises the bat and does the salute very animatedly. He's pumped. Fired in on middle and leg, going quicker and quicker is Raza, but he fails to rush Hetmyer who gets low and sweeps over square leg

Sikandar Raza to Shimron Hetmyer, SIX, the square boundaries at Wankhede are just not big enough. Not for Hetmyer. Raza was interested but then had to watch it sail over the fielder. Fired in at the stumps, he steps out, isn't to the pitch but still whips it away over square leg

Sikandar Raza to Shimron Hetmyer, SIX, no stopping Hetmyer! Flat and short, slides on nicely to the bat and disappears over midwicket for a 108 meter six. Thunderous pull shot from the Guyanese!
