T20 WC: Hetmyer Blasts 85 As West Indies Post Massive 254/6 Vs Zimbabwe

By IANS News February 23, 2026 • 21:24 PM View: 292

T20 World Cup: Shimron Hetmyer unleashed a power-hitting blitzkrieg, raining sixes in his 34-ball 85, and shared a century partnership with Rovman Powell (59) as the West Indies posted a massive 254/6 against a totally outclassed Zimbabwe in a Group 1 clash in the Super 8 stage of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Monday.

This is the highest team score by any team in the T20 World Cup 2026 and the second-highest ever in the history of the T20 World Cup.

Asked to bat first, Hetmyer blasted the fastest fifty by a West Indies batter in the T20 World Cup, reaching the milestone in 19 balls, hitting four boundaries and five maximums in the process, improving on his own record for the fastest fifty by a West Indies batter in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup.
