Last day of the First Round, Group B of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 will start with the match of West Indies vs Ireland. Bellerive Oval, Hobart will host this match this Friday (21st October) afternoon.
Both West Indies (vs Scotland) and Ireland (vs Zimbabwe) lost their respective first games of this tournament. However, both the teams won their respective second matches of this group to firmly stay alive in this competition (Ireland against Scotland and West Indies against Zimbabwe).
The winner of West Indies vs Ireland will advance to the Super 12 stage, while the loser of the match will end their journey in this tournament. In the case of no result, Ireland will surely exit from this tournament, while the Caribbean team will hope for any result in the later game at the same venue between Zimbabwe and Scotland.
