After winning the first ODI against England, West Indies captain Shai Hope shared that he talked to MS Dhoni. They discussed the importance of staying at the batting crease for a longer time. This conversation inspired Hope in his approach to run-chases.

In the recent cricket match, the West Indies team successfully chased England’s score of 325. They managed to achieve this with seven deliveries left in the game. The key factor in their victory was the exceptional century scored by their captain, Shai Hope. His brilliant batting played a crucial role in securing the win.

Additionally, during this match, the West Indies team set their record for the highest One Day International (ODI) score ever at the famous Antigua venue. This accomplishment highlighted both the team’s overall performance and Hope’s outstanding contribution as a captain and a batsman.

After the match, Shai Hope shared in the post-match presentation that he draws inspiration from MS Dhoni, especially when it comes to chasing runs in One Day Internationals (ODIs). He mentioned having a conversation with Dhoni a while back, where the seasoned player advised him, “You always have a lot more time than you think.” This piece of advice has stayed with Hope throughout his years of playing ODI cricket. It reflects Dhoni’s wisdom about managing time during batting innings, and Hope acknowledged its impact on his approach to the game.

The captain also praised all-rounder Romario Shepherd for his excellent performance in both batting and bowling. According to the skipper, Shepherd was truly impressive, and he emphasized that Shepherd is a reliable player for the team, consistently proving his value at this level of the game.

The captain expressed satisfaction with starting the series on a positive note and conveyed the team’s goal to replicate this success in the upcoming second game. The captain’s words highlight the team’s confidence in Shepherd and their collective aim for continued success in the series.

Yet, the captain noted that England’s opening batsmen had a good start, and he acknowledged that the West Indies (WI) team needs to improve their bowling in the initial phase during the next game. He mentioned that the opposing openers performed well, and for WI to be considered the best team globally, they must elevate their performance. The captain also highlighted a few missed catches and emphasized the importance of playing at a top-notch level.

Despite the challenges, he appreciated the responsibility shown by their openers and expressed the team’s focus on replicating such performances in the future. In summary, the captain emphasized the need for improvement and consistency to achieve the team’s goal of being among the best in the world.

In the match, England chose to bat first and made 325 runs. The opening pair, Phil Salt and Will Jacks, started well with a partnership of 77 runs in nine overs. However, tight bowling restricted Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, and skipper Jos Buttler from scoring big. At one stage, England was 191/5.

Harry Brook played aggressively, scoring 71 runs in 72 balls with seven fours and two sixes, despite wickets falling at the other end. Later, Sam Curran (38 runs in 26 balls) and Brydon Carse (31* in 21 balls) contributed to a 66-run partnership for the eighth wicket, helping England cross the 300-run mark. The notable bowlers for West Indies were Gudakesh Motie, Oshane Thomas, and Romario Shepherd, each taking two wickets. England was dismissed for 325 on the final delivery of their innings.

Despite England hoping to defend their total, a strong partnership of 104 runs between openers Alick Athanaze (66 runs) and Brandon King (35 runs) created problems for the English bowlers. Shai Hope’s explosive unbeaten innings of 109*, featuring seven sixes in just 83 deliveries, shifted the match’s momentum in favor of the hosts. Romario Shepherd’s powerful late hitting, contributing 49 runs off 28 balls, secured the victory for West Indies, much to the joy of the energetic Antiguan crowd.

In the match, spinner Rehan Ahmed took 2 wickets for 40 runs, and pacer Gus Atkinson claimed 2 wickets for 63 runs, performing well for England. Shai Hope, who scored a century, was awarded the ‘Player of the Match.’ With this victory, West Indies now lead the three-match series 1-0.
