    T20 WC: 'We Kept Losing Wickets, Didn’t Get A Partnership Going,' Admits Manenti After Italy's Loss To WI

    Captain Harry Manenti: Captain Harry Manenti admitted his side struggled to put together a complete performance and lost wickets at crucial stages despite an encouraging show with the ball as Italy suffered a 42-run defeat against the West Indies in their last group match of the T20 World Cup 2026 here at Eden Gardens on Thursday.

    West Indies fast bowler Shamar Joseph picked four wickets as Italy were all out for just 123 runs in 18 overs while chasing a 166-run target.

    Speaking on the defeat, skipper Manenti said, “I’m really happy with our first few performances with the ball. We all know the power they possess, and to let them on a good wicket with a short side to 166, we’re really happy. That definitely set us back today and was similar to the England game. We just kept losing wickets in crucial times there today. Didn’t quite get a partnership going that was enough to win a game for you today."
