West Indies celebrate their T20 World Cup triumph

The Caribbean team has struggled in the past when facing opponents on neutral venues. In the ODI format, barring Zimbabwe and Bangladesh, they haven’t quite got the better of oppositions. They have played the most number of neutral venue ODIs versus Pakistan with a win percentage of 54.05.

Against England and South Africa the win percentages are 31.58 and 27.27 respectively. The fact that they have won the 1975 and 1979 World Cup at neutral venues is something to cheer about for Caribbean cricket.

T20 has been a strong point for the men from West Indies. Against England, they enjoy a win percentage of 100. The only embarrassing moment came in the 2007 World T20, when Bangladesh ousted them after the group stage.

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe enjoys a decent win percentage of 66.67 against Bangladesh. Their next favourite team is England, whom they have beaten 3 times out of 7. They have lost all their 14 neutral matches versus Pakistan. The records are not worth cherishing for the Zimbabweans.

In the T20 format, they have won a solitary game against Australia way back in 2007. Other than that they are yet to win anything at neutral venues. There is room for improvement in Zimbabwean cricket and it will take time for them to beat cricketing giants at neutral venues.
