The 38th fixture of the T20 World Cup 2021 sees West Indies take on Australia at Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi on November 6 (Saturday). The match is scheduled to begin at 3:30 pm IST.

Teams Status

West Indies

The West Indies are currently languishing in fifth place on the points table in Group 1, with just a single win to their name from a quartet of matches.

With just one game left to play, they cannot qualify for the semi-finals themselves but can play spoilers and ruin Australia’s campaign with an upset win here.

Their campaign officially came to an end in the last game when they lost to Sri Lanka courtesy of a poor bowling effort that saw the Asian side amass 189 runs. In reply, the Caribbean Kings managed 169 – the most they’ve scored in the entire tournament but it obviously wasn’t enough.

The carefree, and at times careless, brand of Windies cricket means that they are just as much a threat now that they’ve been eliminated as they were before. That they cannot progress does not mean that they will treat this match anymore or any less.

Australia

Australia are the lucky holders of the coveted second spot in Group 1 but South Africa are hot on their heels, keen to usurp them. Both the teams have six points each but the Aussies occupy second place behind England due to their better net run rate.

The Aussies do have an edge in the race as they face the easier Windies whereas South Africa have their final match against runaway group leaders England.

As far as their form is concerned, the Aussies registered a dominant win over Bangladesh in their last game, after being dominated themselves by England in the previous game.

Adam Zampa was the star of the show against the Tigers as his five-for skittled out the Asians for just 73. The Aussies won it by eight wickets and put their campaign back on track.

Tipster’s Angle

Tip: The West Indies to win @ 3.38

This World Cup saw an early upset when Scotland defeated Bangladesh but since then the favourites have largely run the show. The tournament is due to a surprise and we think it could come here. The Windies have looked lethargic but they still do have undoubted talent, of which some is even legendary. At underdog odds, they are worth a shot here. The odds have been sourced from 22Bet.

Tip: Evin Lewis to score over 20.5 runs @ 1.87

Evin Lewis averages 30.97 for the West Indies in T20Is but his numbers against Australia jump up by almost six runs to 36.66, which is indication enough that we want to bet on him. The odds and the play have been sourced from Dafabet.
