West Indies will play against Papua New Guinea in the second match of the World Cup today. West Indies is a very strong team in T20 format. And I would say one of the most worthy contenders for this year's World Cup is the West Indies team. The West Indies players played well in the last T20 series against South Africa. West Indies won the series 3-0 against a strong team like South Africa.
Today's match is going to be a very easy win against Papua New Guinea. West Indies batting order is very strong. On the other hand Papua New Guinea's bowlers are not experienced enough. I think West Indies will give a target of more than 220 if they bat earlier today. And West Indies will win today by at least 100 runs.
All the batsmen of the West Indies team have been in great in the form which has created a relaxing moment for their team.
I was very surprised by the performance of West Indies in this match. Papua New Guinea's batting was poor, it cannot be said that PNG's batting was good enough. Although the top order did not play well, due to Sese Bau's responsible batting, the PNG batsmen were able to provide a target of 137 runs descent.
The West Indies team was in very good form. So we all thought that the West Indies team would win very easily at a target of 137 runs. But I was very surprised by the performance of West Indies batsmen. West Indies batsmen batting was very slow. The team managed to collect 137 runs in 19 overs. And lost 5 wickets. Even if West Indies win the match, I am not happy with West Indies batting.
