Zimbabwe Vs West Indies LIVE Cricket Score, ICC T20 World Cup 2026 Super 8s: ZIM Bowl First; Check Playing XIs

We are underway at the Wankhede Stadium for this important Super 8 match. Shai Hope and Brandon King are out in the crease to post a formidable total in what is a green top wicket.

The Suryakumar Yadav-led Indian team were well and truly tested for the first time in this ICC T20 World Cup 2026. After conceding a target of 187, India's batting line-up faltered under pressure and were swept away for just 111 runs.

This has raised questions marks on India's title charge in this T20 World Cup. Not only did the Men in Blue drop 2 points, but their net run-rate has also suffered big time.

For India to qualify, they will have to win both of their remaining matches and also hope for South Africa to beat tonight's opponents West Indies and Zimbabwe.
