T20 World Cup: Salt, Bairstow Take England To 8-wicket Victory Over WI
T20 World Cup: In a resounding start to their Super 8 campaign at the T20 World Cup, England showcased their prowess with a commanding 8-wicket victory over hosts West Indies.
Having barely scraped through to the Super 8s, England defied expectations and dominated the game, securing the win with 15 balls to spare.
Winning the toss, England captain Jos Buttler opted to bowl first, a decision that soon paid dividends. The West Indies openers started cautiously, but Brandon King sparked excitement with a spectacular 101-metre six followed by three boundaries. However, disaster struck as King, batting on 23, sustained a groin injury and had to retire hurt, leaving the hosts in a precarious position.
