West Indies vs India, ICC World Cup 2019: Key players from the Windies to watch out for
West Indies who currently rank eighth in the points table will take on the Men in Blue today at 3 PM IST.
In their six matches in the tournament, West Indies have won only one game so far against the Men in Green. Even though the team failed miserably to create an impact in the tournament, the team is now looking forward to regain their confidence by defeating the Men in Blue. Let’s have a look at their key players.
1. Sheldon Cottrell- Against the Black Caps, in their previous encounter, the team gave a tough fight and took the game till the very end. However, New Zealand won the match by 5 runs eventually, but it was the Windies’ fighting spirit that caught all the attention. Sheldon Cottrell with his exceptional bowling figures claimed four crucial wickets for the team. In his 10-over spell, he claimed four wickets and gave away 56 runs with an economy as low as 5.60. He’ll play a crucial role in restricting the explosive Indian batting line-up to a low total in the game.
2. Carlos Brathwaite- This West Indian cricketer registered a brilliant century against New Zealand and helped the team fight till the very end of the game. When the West Indian batting line-up crumbled in the middle overs, it was Brathwaite who kept the hopes alive for the team. He smashed a brilliant 101 runs of only 89 deliveries which included 9 fours and 5 sixes. His explosive batting can be a threat to any opposition in the tournament.
