During the 14th match of the ongoing ICC T20 World Cup 2021 between England and West Indies in Dubai, West Indies registered a shambolic batting performance after being asked to bat first by opposition captain Eoin Morgan.
An innings which didn’t appear to be going anywhere, the defending champions continued from exactly where they had left-off in the warm-up matches.
West Indies’ all or nothing approach in the shortest format backfired at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium tonight as conditions required their batters to play sensibly. However, big-hitters’ attempt of doing what they do the best and what is expected out of them on a cricket ground didn’t reap fruits in a match as crucial as this one.
What followed was West Indian batters losing wickets to all English bowlers in a bid to convert a normal bowling performance into an extraordinary one.
Barring veteran batter Chris Gayle scoring 13 (13), no other West Indian batter managed to contribute in double digits against the ODI world champions.
With bowling figures of 2.2-0-2-4, England spinner Adil Rashid wasn’t just the pick of their bowlers but also picked his career-best figures tonight. Other than Rashid, all-rounder Moeen Ali and fast bowler Tymal Mills picked a couple of wickets each.
