Live Hindi News :- England got an easy win due to poor batting by the West Indies in the Super 8 Group 2 match of the T20 World Cup in St. Lucia. For this, England cannot deny the accurate bowling in moments and the captaincy of Butler. The actual batting pitch for this series was the St. Lucia pitch. Butler predicted it correctly and invited West Indies to bat first. But West Indies scored 72 runs in 8 overs. Brandon King scored 23 runs in 12 balls with the help of 3 fours and 1 six before retiring due to injury.

Adil Rashid (4 overs 1/21) and Moeen Ali (2 overs 15 runs per wicket) controlled West Indies from that position. Moeen Ali dismissed dangerous opener Johnson Charles. West Indies captain Powell bowled the 15th over when Liam Livingstone split the over and grazed. It included 3 mind-blowing sixes and a four. But in the same over, a ball that went outside the off stump took the leading edge and was caught by Mark Wood at short third man.

With the wicket of Powell, West Indies started by losing 3 wickets in 12 balls. After this, Jofra Archer bowled a brilliant fast over to dangerman Nicholas Pooran. Pooran is a T20 player. His smooth bat swing could not do anything to the archer. Nevertheless, Jofra Archer sent Pooran to the wicketkeeper. Then another dangerous batsman Andre Russell lost his wicket to Adil Rashid.

143/4, only 3 overs remaining. Fortunately, May Island's contemporary finisher and dangerman Sherpen Rutherford scored 28 runs off 15 balls and May Island reached 180 runs. 20 runs are less on this pitch. England chased easily. Phil Salt scored 87 runs off 47 balls with the help of 7 fours and 5 sixes, while Jos Buttler scored 25 runs and Moeen Ali scored 13 runs. England were unable to bowl out Jonny Bairstow as he scored 48 runs off 26 balls and England won in 17.3 overs.

Unwanted Achievement: In this match, the West Indies team did an unwanted feat. This is the main reason for the failure. Their batting record for the most dot balls in the T20 World Cup so far is 51 balls. Earlier, they had a record of 50 dot balls in the 2016 T20 World Cup. This was the main reason for today's defeat, if we had scored at least 20-25 runs on these 51 dot balls, the score would have gone towards 205 runs, it would have benefited psychologically.

Out of these 51 dart balls, only Zobra Archer bowled 12 dart balls. Adil Rashid bowled 10 dot balls. Mark Wood, who usually scores runs, bowled 7 dot balls in his 3 overs, but isn't it clear where West Indies left the match?
