West Indies delivered a commanding performance to secure a 107-run victory against Zimbabwe in their Super Eight clash of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium on Monday.
In a match dominated by explosive batting and clinical bowling, the Caribbean side put on a show that reinforced their credentials as one of the tournament’s most formidable teams.
After Zimbabwe won the toss and elected to bowl, West Indies seized control early. They posted a massive total of 254 for 6 in their 20 overs, marking one of the highest scores in Men’s T20 World Cup history.
Shimron Hetmyer was the standout with a blistering 85 off just 34 balls, reaching his fifty in record-quick time and setting the tone for the innings. Rovman Powell backed him up with a strong 59, part of a match-defining partnership that took the game away from the opposition.
In response, Zimbabwe struggled to find momentum against a disciplined West Indies bowling attack and were dismissed for just 147, handing the Caribbean side a convincing win by 107 runs.
The result underscores West Indies’ powerful batting lineup and all-round strength as they pursue deeper progression in the Super Eight stage of the tournament.
The victory keeps West Indies firmly in contention as the T20 World Cup advances toward the semifinal rounds, while Zimbabwe will look to regroup after a tough night at the Wankhede.
