ENG vs WI Highlights, T20 World Cup 2026: West Indies conquer England; beat Harry Brook's side by 30 runs

Jamie Overton to Roston Chase, At 140.1 kph, breathing fire, full and on off, Chase tucks it to short mid-wicket.

Adil Rashid to Sherfane Rutherford, Pitched fuller, on the stumps, pushed gently to the left of the bowler. Excellent start for Adil. Just 3 from his first.

Adil Rashid to Sherfane Rutherford, BEAUTY! A googly, full and on the fourth stump. Sherfane Rutherford tries to work it leg side by leaning on but fails to read the wrong 'un and the ball zips past the bat.

Adil Rashid to Roston Chase, Sharp leg spinner, slower through the air. It lands and grips prodigiously, spinning almost squarer on a length. Roston Chase chops it onto the surface, trying for a back foot punch.

Adil Rashid to Roston Chase, A loopy leg break, short, on middle, Roston Chase bunts it back to Adil.

Adil Rashid to Sherfane Rutherford, Low full toss, around off, Sherfane Rutherford drills it down to long off for a single.

Adil Rashid comes into the attack right after the end of the Powerplay. He was taken to the cleaners by Nepal in the last game, 3-0-42-0, and would be looking to redeem himself. 

Adil Rashid to Roston Chase, A slider on leg, full in length, Chase whips that wide of mid-wicket for a run.

Jamie Overton to Sherfane Rutherford, Spears one at off, on a fullish length, Sherfane Rutherford commits on the back foot and dabs it to short third and it is fielded well there. West Indies are 55/3 at the end of the Powerplay.

DRINKS! West Indies have scored at a brisk rate till now, but the problem for them is that they have lost three key batters as well. Hetmyer was looking good, but could not convert his start, and now the pressure will be on the Windies' middle order to deliver against a strong opposition. England will be happy with how things are going, but know that they cannot take it lightly, as the Men in Maroon do bat deep, and most of them can take the game away with their power-hitting. Also, Sherfane Rutherford is the next man in.

Jamie Overton to Shimron Hetmyer, OUT! TAKEN! England have Hetmyer's wicket. This is a well-directed short ball, dug into the pitch with pace taken off slightly, on top of the stumps. It lands and kicks up further. Shimron Hetmyer goes for the pull shot, but the ball gets big on him and it is sliced off the top edge. The ball goes to the moon and sails towards short fine leg. Sam Curran lurks under it and takes a straightforward catch. The 47-run partnership is broken.

Jamie Overton to Shimron Hetmyer, Cannoned in and around the pads, on a fuller length. Shimron Hetmyer looks to whip that across, but misses and the ball deflects off the pads, rolls past the stumps toward the right of short fine and they hurry back and get two leg byes.

Jamie Overton to Shimron Hetmyer, Hard length ball on the off pole, it hits the bat hard and Hetmyer ends up chopping it towards short third. Denies the single and sends Chase back.

Jamie Overton to Roston Chase, Chance of a run out, missed! Pitched up, full and on leg, Roston Chase chips it on the bounce to mid on. Hetmyer wants a single, but Chase sends him as Archer is quick to get rid of the ball, but misses his shy at the bowling end. Shimron puts a dive in and gets home. But a direct hit would have had Hettie rushing back to the dugout.

A 14-run over is followed by an over going for 19 runs. West Indies have struck back strongly after losing both their openers. Jamie Overton replaces Sam Curran.

Will Jacks to Shimron Hetmyer, SIX! 50 UP FOR THE WINDIES! Will Jacks gives this one some more flight, full but down the leg side. Shimron Hetmyer sits down on one knee, picks it up and smacks it over the deep backward square leg fence for half a dozen more. 19 runs off Jacks' first over.

Will Jacks to Roston Chase, Tossed up, full and on middle, Roston Chase knocks it towards the bowler.

Just the over West Indies needed to get a move on. The pitch has runs written all over it and Hetmyer looks in a fine touch. And here's spin. Brook tosses the ball to Will Jacks, who replaces Jofra Archer from this end.

Sam Curran to Roston Chase, Bangs in a bouncer, on middle and leg, Roston Chase rolls his wrists and pulls it through square leg for one. 14 runs off the over!

Sam Curran to Shimron Hetmyer, Hard length and on middle, nips back in a bit. Shimron Hetmyer looks to punch it away but gets an inside edge just past the stumps and towards short fine. They cross.

Sam Curran to Shimron Hetmyer, FOUR! Easy pickings! Sam Curran errs in line and serves this full but down the leg side. Shimron Hetmyer just has to get some bat on it and he tickles it away to the fine leg fence for an easy boundary.

Sam Curran to Shimron Hetmyer, SIX! BANG! He connects well this time. This is another slower delivery, full and on off. Shimron Hetmyer picks it up early, gets low on his knee and nails the slog sweep over the deep mid-wicket fence for a biggie.

Sam Curran to Shimron Hetmyer, In the air...SAFE! Sam Curran dishes out a clever slower one, but it is not the moon ball. Full and around off. Shimron Hetmyer crouches low for the slog across the line, but has to wait an eternity. He does not get it from the middle and the ball goes in the air, but lands well wide of the deep square leg fielder. Phil Salt scoots across and gathers it in the outfield. Two taken.

Sam Curran to Shimron Hetmyer, Lands this on a good length and on middle, Shimron Hetmyer stays inside his crease and keeps it out onto the pitch.

Jofra Archer to Roston Chase, Nails the wide yorker, outside off, Roston Chase is very late to get his bat down in time and fails to dig it out.

Jofra Archer to Shimron Hetmyer, Back of a length and on middle, angling into the body of the batter. Shimron Hetmyer looks to pull but gets cramped up for room and misses. It goes off his upper body towards square leg. A leg bye taken.

Jofra Archer to Shimron Hetmyer, FOUR! Up and over! Short of a length and outside off. Shimron Hetmyer uses the width on offer, frees his arms and crunches it over point for a boundary.

There is a shout for LBW, but turned down. Harry Brook has a chat with his bowler and keeper, but does not take the review. It looked to be going down the leg side and also pitching outside leg as well.

Sam Curran to Roston Chase, Fuller delivery, on off, shaping in, Roston Chase looks to push it away but gets an inside edge through mid-wicket for a couple of runs.

Both the West Indian openers are back in the hut inside two overs. In walks Roston Chase at number 4.

Sam Curran to Brandon King, OUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Sam Curran just cannot do anything wrong with the ball in this World Cup. He begins with a fuller delivery, outside off, again not a wicket-taking delivery. Brandon King sees this as a scoring opportunity and goes after it, but there is a fielder set at deep point for this shot. King cannot control his shot and slices it aerially towards that fielder, where Phil Salt runs forward and dives to take a fantastic catch, scooping the ball cleanly before the ground. England right on top early doors.

A very profitable start for England. 8 runs and the fall of Hope from it. Sam Curran to operate from the opposite end.

Jofra Archer to Shimron Hetmyer, BEAUTY! Jofra Archer lands this back of a length and in that channel outside off, holds its line. Shimron Hetmyer has a poke at it from the crease but gets beaten on the outside edge.

Archer was 'Hope'ful to make amends this time around, and he does in the very first over. Shimron Hetmyer marks his guard as he is in at number 3. A slip in place.

Jofra Archer to Shai Hope, OUT! STRAIGHT TO THE FIELDER! Jofra Archer draws first blood. Not his best delivery, but he won't mind getting a wicket on it. This is short and wide outside off, there to be put away. Shai Hope reaches out and cuts it hard but fails to keep it down and also does not get enough elevation. The ball actually moves away slightly and kicks up a bit. It flies off the splice, straight to cover, where Tom Banton takes a good catch near his midriff. A three-baller for the Windies skipper, and they are rocked early.

Jofra Archer to Shai Hope, Hard length and on middle, nips back in, Shai Hope pushes it out towards cover.

Jofra Archer to Shai Hope, WIDE! Tries the bouncer now, but this is a bit too high, on middle. Shai Hope ducks under it. Another wide called.
