West Indies vs Zimbabwe will play in the 8th match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 at Bellerive Oval, Hobart.
West Indies:
West Indies have started their campaign on a disappointing note by losing their first game against Scotland. They will look to perform better with both bat and ball in this game.

With the bat, their batting looked very poor and was bundled out for just 118. Jason Holder and Kyle Mayers were the top scorers and scored 38 and 20 runs respectively. They will hope their batting unit to start delivering.
Zimbabwe:
Zimbabwe is coming into this World Cup after a very good home season. They won their opening match against Ireland by 31 runs.
Batting first, their batters did a fantastic job and posted a total of 174. Sikandar Raza and Wesley Madhevere were the top scorers and scored 82 and 22 runs respectively. Their batting unit looks well-settled.
With the ball, their bowlers also did an excellent job and picked up wickets regularly. Blessing Muzarabani was the pick from the bowlers and picked up 3 wickets. Richard Ngarava and Tendai Chatara also bowled very well and picked up 2 wickets each.
