In a stunning turn of events, a pivotal player of the West Indies Cricket team has parted ways with the squad and made a solemn vow to never return. This announcement has sent shockwaves through the cricketing world, leaving fans and experts alike speculating on the reasons behind this unexpected departure. Known for their impactful contributions on the field, the player’s decision marks a significant loss for the team as they navigate future challenges. As the situation unfolds, stay tuned for further developments and reactions from both the player and the West Indies Cricket board.
The West Indies start was truly jaw-dropping – it must be seen to be believed.
The second-over wicket of Brandon King (7 off 6) did little to halt the hosts’ momentum, as Johnson Charles and Nicholas Pooran both clicked into top gear, in the blink of an eye.
Charles struck three boundaries in the third over, which inspired Pooran to do something truly out of this world at the change of ends. The keeper-batter exploded, producing a 36-run over off Azmatullah Omarzai’s bowling – 6, 5NB, 5WD, 0, 4LB, 4, 6, 6.
It’s the fifth time in Men’s T20I history an over has gone for 36 runs, the second time at a Men’s World Cup. The final six of the Omarzai over saw the partnership reach 50.
The punishment continued, as the pair surged West Indies’ score to 92/1 at the six-over mark. It’s the biggest Powerplay total in Men’s T20 World Cup history.
