Co-hosts West Indies were knocked out of the T20 2024 World Cup after a defeat against South Africa in a Super Eights clash that was more of a virtual quarter-final. Here are our player ratings for the 14 West Indies players to take the field across the tournament:

Johnson Charles: 4/10

140 runs @ 23.33; SR: 113.82

West Indies World Cup hero from 2012 and 2016 blew hot and cold. His highest of 44 came against Uganda, bookended by ducks against Papua New Guinea and New Zealand. Against Afghanistan, he contributed with a 27-ball 43 followed by a 38 in a Super Eights clash against England. He was dropped for the last match.

Brandon King: 3/10

86 runs @ 21.50; SR: 126.47

A top score of 34 versus PNG sums up King's tournament, one that never really got going. He looked on song against England, but a side strain cut short his innings for 23, ruling him out for the rest of the tournament.

Nicholas Pooran: 8.5/10

228 runs @ 38; SR: 146.15

One of the best batters in the competition, Pooran’s 53-ball 98 blew away Afghanistan as West Indies scored 218-5, the highest total this year so far.

Shai Hope: 7/10

107 runs @ 53.50; SR: 187.71

Often criticised for his strike rate in the past, Hope elevated his game in his three opportunities. He contributed with a quickfire 25 in the same record total before smashing a 39-ball 82 not out to gun down USA's 128 runs in just 10.5 overs. The rapid chase gave West Indies a net run rate boost after heavy loss against England in the previous Super Eights match.

Kyle Mayers: 3/10

35 runs @ 35; SR: 102.94

Mayers came in as a replacement for King, scoring nearly a run-a-ball 35 against South Africa, his only outing in the tournament.

Sherfane Rutherford: 7/10

121 runs @ 40.33; SR: 147.56

Rutherford perhaps played the most decisive innings in his side’s Super Eight finish. An unbeaten 68 from 39 balls on a tricky surface helped West Indies recover from 30-5 to 149-9 in a group-stage fixture against New Zealand, who ended for 136-9.

Rovman Powell: 4/10

71 runs @ 17; SR: 143.66

Captain Powell would be disappointed at his performances as the numbers don’t make a good reading.

Romario Shepherd: 2/10

23 runs @ 23; SR: 92
Two wickets @ 54.50; ER: 10.90

Started in the playing XI, Shepherd was left after three matches. He came back against England and couldn't make a mark, leaking 41 in two overs without success, and was dropped for the last two games.

Roston Chase: 8.5/10

94 runs @ 47; SR: 130.55
Seven wickets @ 11.42; ER: 5.33

Chase has arguably been the most valuable player for the West Indies. Of the three innings he batted, two were of immense significance – 42 not out off 27 helped his team survive a scare against PNG in their opening match, and the 42-ball 52 in their last game against South Africa in a low-scoring virtual quarterfinal.

With the ball, his 3-19 earned him the Player of the Match award and 3-12 in three overs against South Africa placed his side in an ideal position before losing the advantage.

Andre Russell: 6/10

78 runs @ 26; SR: 165.95
11 wickets @ 12.81; ER: 6.99

Fitter than ever, Russell is still as reliable as a bowler as he is as a hard-hitting finisher. A top score of 30 not out against Uganda was pretty much it with the bat, but on the slower surfaces, he was the main supporting pacer for Alzarri Joseph. His best of 3-31 came against the USA, who were skittled out for just 128, while he reduced South Africa to 2-15 while defending 135.

Akeal Hosein: 8/10

21 runs @ 10.50; SR: 75
Nine wickets @ 12.81; ER: 6.99

Akeal operated with control and guile, something his economy shows. His 5-11 against Uganda were the best figures for West Indies in the T20 World Cup. The West Indies’s only defeats came in the only two occasions he struggled to make a mark.

Gudakesh Motie: 7/10

Eight wickets; ER: 8.25

Another vital cog in West Indies’ spin attack, Motie’s bad days too coincided with his team’s. He decimated New Zealand’s batting firepower with 3-25 during the West Indies’ first-round clash.

Alzarri Joseph: 7.5/10

13 wickets @ 13.61; ER: 7.22

Joseph spearheaded the West Indies pace attack and was the third-highest-wicket-taker in the competition at the point of his exit. He bowled his team to victory and a Super Eights berth with 4-19 against New Zealand.

Obed McCoy: 4/10

Three wickets @ 16.33; ER: 7.94

Left-arm seamer McCoy impressed with 3-14 in his first outing against Afghanistan but went wicketless in the next two.
