The 11th match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 will see West Indies square off against Ireland at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart on Friday in a Group B fixture. This is a potential knockout fixture as the loser of this contest will get knocked out of the competition.

West Indies lost their opening fixture against Scotland by 42 runs but bounced back to beat Zimbabwe by 31 runs in their next game. A solid all-round performance saw them finish on the winning side to keep themselves alive in the competition.

Johnson Charles top-scored with 45 for West Indies to guide his side to 153/7. Alzarri Joseph then bowled brilliantly and picked up four wickets to knock over Zimbabwe on 122. The two-time champions will look to repeat their performance against the Irish side on Friday.

Ireland, on the other hand, didn’t have the best of starts to the T20 World Cup 2022. They lost their opening fixture against Zimbabwe by 31 runs but bounced back to beat Scotland by six wickets in a hard-fought contest in their next game.

After being asked to bowl first, the Irish bowlers struggled a bit as Scotland posted 176 on the board. In reply, Curtis Campher (72*) and George Dockrell (39*) put up a sensational 119-run stand for the fifth wicket to chase down the total with six balls to spare.
