T20 World Cup 2024 is being organized in the US and West Indies this year. However, now the league stage is over, so the Super 8 and subsequent matches will also be played in the West Indies. The T20 World Cup is being played in the West Indies after about 14 years, so it becomes even more important. The West Indies team is playing this year’s World Cup under the captaincy of Rovman Powell, so it is also taking advantage of its home ground. Meanwhile, such a feat has happened, which the West Indies team had never been able to do before.
The West Indies cricket team has done a unique feat in the history of T20 International. This has happened for the first time with the team that the team has won 8 matches consecutively i.e. back to back without losing a match. All these matches have been won only in 2024. Before this, the West Indies team was able to win only seven matches consecutively. This happened from the year 2012 to 2013. In the year 2017, the team won 5 consecutive T20 International matches, but now it has also done that feat, which had never happened in its T20 International history.
Not only this, it had never happened before that a team won four consecutive matches in T20 World Cup. In the year 2012, year 2014 and year 2016, the team won 3 matches back to back. The interesting thing is that in 2012 and 2016, the team became champions. In the year 2016, the team even secured its place in the semi-finals. When the team did the feat of winning three matches in a row, this time the number of matches won has reached four. The team has already made its place in Super 8. If the team performs like this, then the team can also reach the semi-finals.
Meanwhile, there is a lot of talk about the performance of West Indies. It is also being considered a contender to win the title, but there is not much discussion about the team’s captain Rovman Powell. He has become the second captain to win the most matches for West Indies. The captain who has won the most T20 International matches for West Indies is Darren Sammy. He has made his team win 28 matches. Now Rovman Powell has come to the second position by winning 14 matches. Kieron Pollard, who has won 13 T20 International matches under his captaincy, has now fallen behind Powell.
