New Delhi: There has been a big disruption in the T20 World Cup 2022 season. Actually, the only team to win the World Cup twice, the West Indies team has been out of the qualifying round. Today (October 21), the West Indies played a do-or-die match against Ireland and in this, they suffered a crushing defeat by 9 wickets. Let us know that this time the performance of the Caribbean team has been very poor. The Windies team has been a victim of thrashing for the second time this season.

First, the West Indies had to face defeat by 42 runs at the hands of Scotland in the first match of their qualifying round. Then the Windies team defeated Zimbabwe by 31 runs in the second match and made a comeback. In this match, the West Indies failed to reach the Super-12, losing the match by 9 wickets. In the current season of the T20 World Cup, now the journey of the West Indies has ended here.

In this match, West Indies captain Nicholas Pooran won the toss and decided to bat first, which proved to be wrong. The team lost two wickets on a total score of 27 runs. From here, Brendon King scored 62 runs off 48 balls and tried to handle the team. In such a situation, the entire West Indies team could score only 146 runs for 5 wickets. For Ireland, leg-spin all-rounder Gareth Delany bowled brilliantly and took three wickets. Gareth sent three batsmen to the pavilion for just 16 runs in 4 overs. He made dangerous batsmen like Captain Pooran, Rovman Powell and Evin Lewis his victims.
 
Chasing a target of 147 runs, Ireland's team started with a bang. None of the bowlers of the Windies team could put pressure on the Ireland team. Irish captain Andy Balbirnie returned to the pavilion after scoring 37 runs off 23 balls. Paul Stirling (66 off 48 balls) and Lorcan Tucker (45 off 35 balls) were not out. Both of them won the match in 17.3 overs for the Ireland team.
