West Indies, USA clash amid must-win situation

USA have proven to be a formidable opponent in the tournament, making it to the Super Eight on the back of their hard-fought victories.

The loss to England has put the West Indies in a must-win situation. The match against USA becomes a pivotal moment in their campaign, determining whether they can keep their hopes of advancing alive.
USA team has shown remarkable signs but they’ve not been able to come to terms since their humongous victory against Pakistan .Their performance in the tournament thus far has been surprising, but West Indies having big hitters will be a strong opponent to manage. Cautiously, West Indies will be aware that USA are not to be underestimated.

USA, on the other hand, will aim to capitalize on the advantage that West Indies are coming off a defeat. USA will once again be led by Aaron Jones after Monank Patel still continues to recover from a shoulder injury.
