The West Indies Women’s cricket team has suffered their second consecutive World Cup warm-up defeat, losing to Australia by six wickets in Cardiff on Wednesday. This marks another setback for the regional side as they prepare for the tournament.
This series of results places the team in a less than ideal position as they approach their opening World Cup game this Saturday, where they are scheduled to face defending champions New Zealand. The performance in warm-up matches is crucial for building momentum.
In their latest loss, the West Indies Women were bowled out for a total of 131 runs after electing to bat first, with Deandra Dottin scoring 48 from 38 balls. Their previous warm-up fixture on Monday also resulted in a defeat, a 26-run loss against India.
