Ind vs WI Super 8 Live: Hetmyer, Chase, and Hope Propel West Indies to 113/3 in 13.1 Overs

Shimron Hetmyer, coming off a blistering start, smashed 27 off just 12 balls with two towering sixes, showing why he’s one of the tournament’s top six-hitters. Roston Chase played a controlled yet aggressive innings, scoring 40 off 25 balls, including five boundaries, giving West Indies a strong foundation through the first 13 overs.

Shai Hope anchored the innings at the other end, scoring 32 off 33 deliveries, mixing rotation and timely boundaries. The trio ensured West Indies passed the 100-run mark in just 11.1 overs, leaving India with plenty of work to do to contain the scoring rate. Extras contributed three runs, while Rovman Powell and Sherfane Rutherford stayed unbeaten, ready to accelerate in the death overs.

India Bowling Under Pressure

Jasprit Bumrah struck twice, removing Hetmyer and Chase, while Varun Chakravarthy picked up one wicket. Despite the breakthroughs, India’s bowling attack, including Arshdeep Singh, Hardik Pandya, and Axar Patel, struggled to keep the run rate under control as West Indies maintained an impressive 8.58 runs per over.

With 7.5 overs remaining in the innings, West Indies are well-placed to post a competitive total in this crucial Ind vs WI, T20 World Cup 2026 Super 8 clash. Hetmyer, Chase, and Hope’s partnership has given the Caribbean side momentum, and the middle order looks set to capitalize.
