USA vs West Indies: Prediction [T20 WC 2024] – Best Bets
Not many would’ve thought that co-hosts USA and West Indies will lock horns in the Super 8 round. But here they are facing for the first time in international cricket. Here are the best bets for this USA vs West Indies match.
Nicholas Pooran total – Over 24.5 10Cric @ 1.85, BET HERE
Nicholas Pooran is batting at number three and has fared decently so far at the T20 World Cup. He can go berserk against the USA with the West Indies in desperate position.
USA best bowler – Saurabh Netravalkar – 1xBet @3.9, BET HERE
Saurabh Netravalkar has been the toast of the USA ever since the T20 World Cup got underway. Opening the bowling, he has made sure to pick early wickets in almost every match and is the best option for this bet to place.
USA runs total in delivery 1 of Over 1 – under 0.5 Parimatch @ 1.63, BET HERE
It seems unlikely that the USA openers will attack Akeal Hosein who most of the times bowls the first over for the West Indies. Hence, this is one of the safest bets to place.
Venue and Pitch Analysis
Kensington Oval in Barbados has been one of the decent batting venues in this World Cup. Australia scored 201 runs against England here and another similar surface is expected for this match.

Head-to-Head Record USA vs West Indies
USA and West Indies will be playing against each other for the first time in T20Is.
USA
USA gave a good account of themselves against South Africa while chasing 195 runs. They fought well only to fall short by 18 runs but played some confident cricket and at one stage, even scared to chase down the total. The co-hosts will, however, back themselves to go past the West Indies as the latter side is under pressure having lost their previous game too.
West Indies
This is a must-win encounter for the West Indies as they lost to England in their previous game defending 180 runs. Moreover, their opener Brandon King is injured and is doubtful at least for this game which compounds their issues. Their bowling attack has to step up big time if they are to restrict the USA and stay alive in the tournament.
