ICC Penalizes West Indies: The West Indies team’s difficulties, which have lost seven consecutive matches against Australia, are not being named. After the fourth T20, the ICC has taken a big action on the team, which has increased the problems of the Caribbean players. On the other hand, the Kangaroo team is constantly making a blast and now leading to a clean swip to the West Indies by winning the fifth T20.
For the West Indies cricket team, the ongoing T20 series against Australia has become a bad dream. In the fourth T20 too, the hosts suffered defeat and lagged behind 0–4 in the series. Not only this, the ICC also imposed a fine of 10% match fees on West Indies due to the slow over rate in the fourth match.
The penalty was imposed under Article 2.22 of the ICC, in which the players are fined 5% match fees for throwing every over late. Captain Shai Hope accepted the proposed punishment by match officials, which did not require hearing.
On the other hand, talking about this series, the brilliant form of Australia’s emerging all -rounder Cameron Green continues. Green, who returned from the injury, scored a third half -century against the West Indies in the fourth T20. His unbeaten 50 (35 ball) innings in the fourth T20 gave the Kangaroos an unbeatable lead of 4-0 in the series. Earlier in the third T20, Tim David scored the fastest century for Australia.
Australia is also preparing for its T20 World Cup 2026 (India). The Travis Head is excluded from this T20 series, while Glenn Maxwell is being promoted in the top order with captain Mitchell Marsh. At the same time, the team also tried new combinations like Aaron Hardy and Cooper Conauli have been placed in order to give young players a chance.
All -rounder Mitchell Owen, who performed strongly for Washington Freedom in MLC, has now become part of Australia’s T20 team. Owen impressed everyone by hitting a half -century on his international debut in T20.
In such a situation, both teams will now face each other in the last match at 4:30 am on Tuesday, July 29, July 29. If this match wins this match, then before the clean swip in the Test series, it will also swip a clean swip in the T20 series.
