Hetmyer and Ashraf (L-R)
Despite some struggle with the ball, West Indies managed to beat Scotland with ease in match 2 of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 on Saturday at Eden Gardens in Kolkata to start their campaign with two full points.
Earlier, Scotland won the toss and opted to bowl first. West Indies openers got off to a slow start in the match, adding just 33 runs in the powerplay despite not losing any wicket. Skipper Shai Hope (19 runs off 22 balls) tried to accelerate after the powerplay but was clean bowled by Michael Leask.
Brandon King (35 runs off 30 balls) then played some good shots but again gave his wicket away to Oliver Davidson while trying to accelerate the innings. However, Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell then stitched a half-century stand in just 19 balls to put West Indies back on track. Hetmyer then brought up his half-century in just 22 balls to put Scotland bowlers under pressure.
Rovman Powell (24 runs off 14 balls) then lost his wicket to Brad Currie as the 81-run stand for the third wicket came to an end. Shimron Hetmyer (64 runs off 36 balls) kept swinging at one end before finally losing his wicket to Safyaan Sharif on the final ball of the penultimate over.
Sherfane Rutherford (26 runs off 13 balls) was then removed by Brad Currie in the final over as West Indies finished their innings at 176 for 5 after 20 overs.
In reply, Scotland lost their first wicket early as Jason Holder removed Michael Jones (1 run off 5 balls) in the second over. Brandon McMullen (14 runs off 12 balls) played a couple of big shots before being dismissed by Romario Shepherd.
George Munsey (19 runs off 15 balls) was the next batter to depart off Shamar Joseph as Scotland lost their top three with just 37 on the board. However, Richie Berrington and Tom Bruce then stitched a brisk half-century stand for the fourth wicket to keep Scotland alive in the chase.
Jason Holder finally struck to remove Richie Berrington (42 runs off 24 balls) to provide West Indies with some breathing space. Gudakesh Motie then struck to dismiss Tom Bruce (35 runs off 28 balls) to further slump Scotland’s chances in the match.
Matthew Cross (11 runs off 12 balls) also could not do much as he lost his wicket to Romario Shepherd, who in the next two balls dismissed Michael Leask (0 run off 1 ball) and Oliver Davidson (0 run off 1 ball) to complete his T20I hat-trick, before also taking the wicket of Safyaan Sharif on the last ball of that very over to complete his five-wicket haul.
Jason Holder finally got the wicket of Mark Watt (15 runs off 12 balls) as Scotland were bundled out for 147 in 18.5 overs and West Indies won the match by 35 runs.

Pakistan survive low scoring thriller
Pakistan held their nerve to secure a three-wicket victory over the Netherlands in the opening match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo, beginning their campaign with two crucial points.
After winning the toss, Pakistan opted to bowl and struck early through Salman Mirza, who removed Max O’Dowd, before Mohammad Nawaz accounted for Michael Levitt. Despite the early setbacks, Colin Ackermann counterattacked, helping the Netherlands reach 50 for two at the end of the powerplay. Abrar Ahmed halted the momentum by dismissing Ackermann soon after, while Nawaz continued to apply pressure by removing Bas de Leede.
Captain Scott Edwards played a key anchoring role with a fluent 37 but was dismissed by Abrar as Pakistan tightened their grip in the middle overs. Saim Ayub’s double strike late in the innings stalled the Netherlands’ acceleration, and Shaheen Afridi returned strongly at the death. Salman Mirza capped off an impressive spell by taking two wickets in the final over as the Netherlands were bowled out for 147 in 19.5 overs.
Pakistan’s chase began briskly before Aryan Dutt dismissed both Saim Ayub and Salman Agha in quick succession. Sahibzada Farhan ensured Pakistan stayed on course with an aggressive knock, guiding his side to 61 for two in the powerplay. Farhan fell agonisingly short of a half-century, triggering a late wobble as the Netherlands clawed back through timely strikes, including the key wicket of Babar Azam.
With momentum swinging, Pakistan relied on Faheem Ashraf, who produced a decisive unbeaten cameo of 29 off 11 balls. Supported by Shaheen Afridi at the other end, Ashraf sealed the chase with three balls to spare, ensuring Pakistan crossed the line at the cost of seven wickets in a tense finish.
The win underlined Pakistan’s composure under pressure, while the Netherlands were left to rue missed opportunities after pushing the contest deep into the final overs.
