ICC T20 World Cup: West Indies beat Zimbabwe by 107 runs with superb bowling by Shimron Hetmyer and Gudakesh Moti
Just an hour before the game began on Monday, Shimron Hetmyer was standing at the crease on the pitch for West Indies' Super 8 match against Zimbabwe. The sun was drying up, teammates were in the middle of the waris routine But the left-hander was already imagining what could happen after that evening.
Hetmyer never hid what he liked most about batting. Many years ago in an interview I He talked about his love for cleaning the rope and why this adventure matters to him more than just finishing as the top scorer for his side.
“People will ask who all is going to make more runs and stuff like that. I just say I'm the one who hit the most sixes, and everyone laughs. I just bat as I see it, but if I If I get one ball I can hit for six, I will. I like to hit sixes, ”he told The Te LeGraf in 2019.

Monday night, He showed that his appetite did not diminish with time. Seven years after those comments, this left-handed man took the masterclass that left the Zimbabwean bowlers looking for answers and walked into the Wankhede Stadium The crowd was well entertained, registering a net run rate- 107-run win for his team.
The key t o his innings was how cleanly he hit the ball. Small Square Borders at Wankhede Stadium Llewellyn may be tempted to over-hitting, but Hetmyer's attack was measured even at its most brutal. Once he settled down, anything small or mid- and leg-stump was sent with authority, especially through the midwicket area.
He got swept away and pulled away very easily, repeatedly climbing into the sandy ball stand which turned into a six-hit exhibition for the moderately packed crowd of Zimbabweans. Dabaz, most of whom were unfamiliar with bowling in these kandis, was never allowed to settle in any rhythm.
Batting at number three also played a slightly different role for Hetmyer. Over the years, T20L The franchisees in the GO have used them primarily as a F. Insher. But Nicholas Pooran's retirement has opened the door for him to pursue the order for the West Indies, and on Monday a Oh, they counted that opportunity.
His half-century came off just 19 balls – the fastest by a West Indies batsman in the T20 World Cup - with another six, this time on a square-leg off Alexander Raza. Milestones There was no ease after the surname. Hetmyer continued to dominate a calm surface, punishing anything that wandered in his killing arc.

However, diarrhea A was not without a touch of fate. Tshinga Musekiwa said that under two occasions, the match-deciding relieves as Hetmyer suppressed with the same attacking intent.
For a while, he was in the tee He also seemed capable of threatening the record for the fastest century in the history of the tournament. But trying to clear the midwicket for his eighth six, he was dismissed by Graeme Kramer, who 34 85 off the balls was caught by Brian Bennett. 62 of those runs on the onside, 56 of which are against spin.
Entertainment ended there, but before it could reduce Zimbabwe's energy and bend the competition firmly in favour of the West Indies.
Miraculous Zimbabwe's victory on any occasion evaporated quickly when they were reduced to 20/3 within the third over, their head Run-getter, Bennett, was dismissed by Aquil Hossein for only five runs for the first time in the tournament.
