Match Preview
The Super 8 thrill continues in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup and in the next match, hosts West Indies and the USA will be up against each other for a high-octane clash. The match has been scheduled to be played at the Kensington Oval in Barbados on Saturday, June 22. Both sides lost their respective first clash of the Super 8 stage and will head into the game to turn around the results of their last defeats. While the Windies slumped to reigning champions England, the USA went down to South Africa after giving them a tough fight.
Toss Prediction
The upcoming match will be the first time the USA will be up against West Indies for a T20I clash. Hence, there is no head-to-head record present for both sides. However, simply because the upcoming match will be played in Barbados, home captain Rovman Powell might get lucky in terms of toss. Hence, we think Powell would emerge victorious over Monank Patel, as far as the toss is considered in the upcoming game.
Win Possibility
Both hosts have had remarkable campaigns in the current season thus far. The Caribbean side that was unbeaten in the season put an end to their run after suffering an eight-wicket loss to the defending champions England. Not only this, but their NRR also took a hit. In the last game, West Indies couldn’t deliver their best performance and several players including skipper Powell failed to make his start count. Adding to their woes, Brandon King also got retired hurt and his participation in the forthcoming match looks doubtful.
As for the USA, the Americans performed better than expected and while a few results have gone out of their way, they have shown the world their mettle. While the entire squad has had a curvy season, Saurabh Netravalkar stood tall and delivered in times of need. However, it would require the team to perform as a unit against the mighty Caribbeans.
Coming back to the upcoming game, it is going to be an exciting clash filled with high-octane cricketing drama. However, considering that West Indies are more powerful, they are likely to win the game putting the USA in a dangerous situation.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
The upcoming Super 8 contest between the USA and West Indies will be played at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados. The venue has hosted 26 T20I matches so far and has an average first-inning score of 154. Considering this, we think the game's first-inning score could be around 165-175 and the powerplay score could hover around 45-50.
