West Indies vs Italy, 37th Match, Group C, ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Gudakesh Motie to Ben Manenti, out Bowled!! Motie has his man, no big celebrations, just takes his cap back from the umpire and walks away. Fraction quicker and fraction shorter in length. Manenti was rocking back on the pull and is undone by the length. The ball crashes into the middle-stump and that's the end of Italy's minute hopes. Ben Manenti b Gudakesh Motie 26(21) [4s-2 6s-1]

Gudakesh Motie to Ben Manenti, SIX, clubbed, tad too flat and at the stumps - Manenti swivels across, brings his bottom-hand into play and then powers the pull over wide long-on for a maximum

Gudakesh Motie to Ben Manenti, 2 runs, a half-chance? Was a well tossed up ball on middle and Manenti was early into the push, timed it well enough and Motie couldn't get across in time - the ball was running away and it needed a full-fledged dive from Forde to prevent the boundary

Gudakesh Motie to Gian Meade, 1 run, tossed up on middle and leg - Gian Meade gets down low and then sweeps it backward of square on the on-side

Gudakesh Motie to Gian Meade, no run, flighted delivery on off, Meade goes back and defends it to the off-side

Gudakesh Motie to Gian Meade, 2 runs, a chance and King has dropped it, to make matters worse, he has landed badly on his head and the physio runs in for a concussion check. Was tossed up nicely around off, slowed down the pace and dragged Meade into the slog - the big leading edge is found and the ball lobs over extra-cover. King backtracks from the ring, but the ball was always going away from his reach. Slips out and he tumbles onto the ground. Could he have left it to Powell who was running in from long-off? He looks distressed and he's off the field

Gudakesh Motie to JJ Smuts, out Caught by Shamar Joseph!! Italy keep losing wickets and the well-set JJ Smuts falls - tossed up and drifting onto the right-hander, Smuts gets down low on the sweep, but he's hitting it to the longer boundary, doesn't get the elevation on the sweep and he can't keep it down as well - straight down deep backward square leg's throat where Shamar takes the catch.
