WI vs AUS Team Previews

West Indies

West Indies began brilliantly with the bat, led by Chase’s explosive 60 and Hope’s classy 55. But the collapse from 159/2 to 189/8 exposed their fragile lower order. Russell, Rutherford, and Holder combined for just 8 runs, while their finishing plans fell apart against quality death bowling.

Gudakesh Motie impressed with the ball (2/29), but the seamers, including Russell (0/37 in 2 overs), leaked heavily. With Evin Lewis still out and their middle order under pressure, the team might consider bringing in a stabilizer like Kyle Mayers.

The X-factor is still Andre Russell, especially in front of home fans, but the all-rounder needs to fire with bat or ball to justify his presence.

West Indies Expected Playing 11

Brandon King, Shai Hope (c & wk), Roston Chase, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Andre Russell, Jason Holder, Romario Shepherd, Akeal Hosein, Gudakesh Motie, Alzarri Joseph

Australia

Australia will take immense confidence from the way they clawed back into Game 1. The new-look middle order, especially debutant Mitchell Owen (50 off 27), showed poise under pressure. Green’s 51 and Zampa’s tidy overs give them a great balance.

Fraser-McGurk failed again, and there could be pressure to reconsider his role as opener if Matt Short regains fitness. But with Connolly contributing, and death specialists like Ellis and Dwarshuis in form, this Aussie squad is performing beyond expectations despite missing Starc, Warner, and Cummins.

Owen’s all-round value and Dwarshuis' 4-wicket haul underline the strength in depth Australia possesses.

Australia Expected Playing 11

Mitchell Marsh (c), Jake Fraser-McGurk, Josh Inglis (wk), Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green, Mitchell Owen, Cooper Connolly, Sean Abbott, Nathan Ellis, Ben Dwarshuis, Adam Zampa

WI vs AUS Toss Prediction

Expect both captains to prefer chasing again. Under lights at Sabina Park, dew and a quickening outfield typically make life easier for batters in the second innings.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

Sabina Park continues to be a high-scoring ground in T20s, offering even bounce and short boundaries. Expect another run-heavy game unless rain intervenes — forecast suggests a 20% chance of a light evening shower, but a full match is expected.

WI vs AUS: Who Will Win?

West Indies showed flair with the bat but fell apart under pressure. Australia, in contrast, showed composure and finishing depth. Unless the West Indies bowlers — particularly Russell and Joseph — tighten up at the death, Australia’s deeper, more consistent batting line-up should prevail again.

Russell, Hetmyer, and Motie are game-changers, but if they don’t shine, Australia’s balance and recent form give them the edge.

Bet on Australia to win this match.

WI vs AUS win percentage stands at 58% in favor of AUS.
