ICC U19 World Cup, 11th Place Playoff, West Indies U19 vs Zimbabwe U19: Probable XIs, match prediction, weather forecast and pitch report
West Indies U19 will cross swords with Zimbabwe U19 in the 11th place playoff game of the ICC Under 19 World Cup. The match will be played at Diego Martin Sporting Complex in Trinidad on January 31st, Monday.
West Indies U-19 failed to find their mojo throughout the tournament. They were absolutely annihilated by UAE U-19 in the 9th place playoff match by 82 runs. Apart from the game against Sri Lanka U-19, the supposedly ‘explosive’ Windies batting line-up failed to fire. The Caribbean side will be disappointed with their showing considering they were expected to do well on home soil.
Zimbabwe also had a disappointing run in the tournament and failed to put up a fight in any of their games. While the expectations of them weren’t high, fans of the African side had hoped for a positive showing. Their batters haven’t clicked throughout the tournament. Both teams will now look to finish the tournament with a victory and salvage some pride.
