The 2019 World Cup got underway on May 30 in England and Wales. It has now gained buzz and hype with time. Some competitive matches have taken place. Windies are touted as the dark horses of the World Cup. They can win on their day and stun even the best of teams in the business.
Former Australian captain, Steve Waugh has termed West Indies as the most “watchable” team in the tournament. “The West Indies … possess a squad full of match winners that can dominate if they gain any sense of ascendancy in a match,” Waugh wrote in his column for the ICC’s official website.
“They are the most watchable team in the tournament with a batting line-up that can kidnap any bowling attack with brute force. No ground is big enough when this behemoth of a batting order clicks into overdrive but they also have a vulnerability against high-quality bowling as they tend to play one dimensional at times,” he added.
“Every side in this tournament will be wary of playing the Windies and I wouldn’t want to face them in a knock-out match,” wrote Waugh.
