T20 WC: 'We Should Have Got A Bit More On The Board,' Says Hope Despite Big Win Against Italy
T20 World Cup: Skipper Shai Hope was not happy with the batting struggles of his side, especially in the Power-play, despite West Indies registering a thumping 42-run win against Italy in their last group stage match of the T20 World Cup 2026 played at Eden Gardens on Thursday, staying unbeaten and marching into the Super 8s in dominant fashion.
Batting first after losing the toss, West Indies posted 165/6 in 20 overs, led by captain Shai Hope, who struck a fluent 75. The total proved more than enough as fast bowler Shamar Joseph starred with four wickets to bowl Italy out for 123 in 18 overs.
Reflecting on the first innings, Hope felt his side could have pushed harder with the bat despite putting up a competitive score.
