Zimbabwe will lock horns with the West Indies in the eighth match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart on Wednesday, October 19. While Zimbabwe come from the back of a win, the West Indies suffered a shocking defeat in their first game.

West Indies batters struggled to get going against Scotland as they were bowled out for 118 in pursuit of 160. All-rounders Jason Holder top-scored the batting charts with 38 runs off 33 balls. It will be a must-win game for Zimbabwe to keep themselves afloat for the showpiece T20 event.

Zimbabwe, meanwhile, were impressive against Ireland with Sikandar Raza and Blessing Muzarabani standing out with the bat and ball, respectively. They will hope to keep up the good work and book a berth in the Super 12 stage of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022.
