West Indies are the joint-hosts of the tournament alongside the USA, who are organising the ICC men’s T20 World Cup for the first time. A total of 16 matches will be held at different venues across the US, while several Caribbean islands will be home to 39 games, including the semi-finals on June 26 and June 27 and the final on June 29 in Barbados.

The two-time champions are eying up their third title, having won it in 2012 and 2016. England are the other side to win the trophy twice (2010 and 2022).

West Indies survived a scare in the tournament opener against Papua New Guinea on June 2 after Roston Chase came to their rescue with an unbeaten 27-ball 42.

With four overs to go, West Indies needed 40 runs to win. Roston Chase was yet to get going, Andre Russell was new to the crease, and Papua New Guinea were daring to dream.

But a boundary spree sealed victory with an over to spare.
