West Indies Win By 107 Runs! A big win this for West Indies. They now top the Group 1 on the Super 8 points table. Brad Evans tried to cut down the margin of defeat as he smashed 43 off 21 balls but Windies still end up with a massive win. That will certainly help their Net Run-Rate (NRR).

Catch Zimbabwe National Cricket Team vs West Indies National Cricket Team (ZIM vs WI) highlights of ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026.
23 Feb, 22:29 (IST)
Gudakesh Motie ends with figures of 28/4 in his quota of four overs as he further dented Zimbabwe. West Indies all set for a big win here, perhaps one of the biggest in the T20 World Cup history.
23 Feb, 21:49 (IST)
West Indies used just two bowlers inside the Powerplay and Gudakesh Motie, the first change, struck in his first over as he accounted for Dion Myers, who perished for 28 off 15 balls.
23 Feb, 21:26 (IST)
Akeal Hossain is dominating and how! Two wickets in an over for the West Indies spinner. First he removed Brian Bennett with a peach of a delivery and then accounts for Ryan Burl, who is caught near deep square leg.
23 Feb, 21:21 (IST)
OUT! Matthew Forde strikes for West Indies upfront. He accounts for Tadiwanashe Marumani. Shimron Hetmyer takes a good catch at deep backward point. T Marumani c Shimron Hetmyer b Matthew Forde 14(8)
23 Feb, 20:56 (IST)
West Indies post massive 254/6 on board, highest team total in this T20 World Cup. Zimbabwe will have to bat really well to chase this down and make a record. Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell were absolutely ruthless and Zimbabwe bowlers had no answers. Can Zimbabwe batters repeat the kind of show we just witnessed? Join us back to find out.
23 Feb, 20:37 (IST)
OUT! Blessing Muzarabani gets rid of Rovman Powell. He is caught at deep backward square leg. Some relief for Zimbabwe but the damage has been done. R Powell c Tashinga Musekiwa b Blessing Muzarabani 59(35)
23 Feb, 20:21 (IST)
OUT! Finally Zimbabwe hold onto Shimron Hetmyer's catch. Brian Bennett takes a good catch once again. Hetmyer misses out on his century by 15 runs. What a knock nonetheless- 85 off just 34 balls. S Hetmyer c Brian Bennett b Graeme Cremer 85(34)
23 Feb, 20:09 (IST)
West Indies on their way to cross the 200-run mark easily. Zimbabwe have their task cut out to try and stop the ongoing onslaught. The current partnership between Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell is worth 96 off just 43 balls.Â
23 Feb, 19:53 (IST)
Halfway through and West Indies after a slow first few overs have been scoring at a healthy pace, all thanks to Shimron Hetmyer. The left-hander is playing a match defining innings and is batting on 69 off 25 balls.
23 Feb, 19:44 (IST)
Half-century up for Shimron Hetmyer. Fifty off 19 balls for the left-hander. That is fastest Fifty by Windies batsman in the T20 World Cup. He is threatening to take the game away from Zimbabwe.
23 Feb, 19:33 (IST)
OUT! Superb this catch by Brian Bennett. Bowling change works for Zimbabwe. Brad Evans strikes as he gets rid of Shai Hope, who is caught at deep midwicket. S Hope c Brian Bennett b Brad Evans 14(12)
23 Feb, 19:24 (IST)
Dropped! Shimron Hetmyer gets a life as Tashinga Musekiwa drops a catch as same place where he took the catch earlier. This could hurt Zimbabwe as Windies look to make most of remaining Powerplay overs.
23 Feb, 19:14 (IST)
OUT! Richard Ngarava has been wayward thus far but he has been effective as he picks first wicket. Brandon King plays a pull shot but finds the fielder at deep backward square, he hits it straight towards him. B King c Tashinga Musekiwa b Richard Ngarava 9(12)
23 Feb, 19:10 (IST)
Good start this for Zimbabwe. Blessing Muzarabani with the second over and he concedes just three runs. Both West Indies openers have been watchful thus far.
23 Feb, 19:05 (IST)
Richard Ngarava starts proceedings for Zimbabwe and he concedes four runs from his first over. Brandon King and Shai Hope are the West Indies openers.
