West Indies will square off against the USA in the 46th match of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 at the Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados on Friday. The Windies suffered an eight-wicket loss against England in their Super 8 opener whereas the USA also suffered an 18-run loss against South Africa.
Ergo, both of these teams will have to be at their best in this must-win encounter. West Indies batters could not convert their starts into substantial scores and they will look to turn the tables against the USA.
Furthermore, West Indies bowlers could not execute their plans as Romario Shepherd was taken for 30 runs in the 16th over.
