West Indies Women Aim for T20 World Cup Prep

West Indies Women's captain Hayley Matthews views the upcoming three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka as vital preparation for the Women's T20 World Cup. This series marks Matthews' return to leading the team in the T20 format after a year.

The team intends to adopt a more aggressive approach on the field, aiming to utilize their power-hitting capabilities. Matthews highlighted players like Chinelle Henry and Deandra Dottin as key powerhouses whose performance is crucial for the World Cup campaign.

While acknowledging Sri Lanka's potential to adjust their strategy from the ODI series, Matthews expressed confidence in her team's bowling unit. She noted that spinners have been performing well, and improvements in pace bowling could further strengthen the team's all-around performance.

Matthews believes T20 cricket is a game of execution on the day, and with match-winners in their squad, the West Indies are capable of defeating any opponent if they perform at their best. The Women's T20 World Cup is scheduled to take place from June 12 to July 5 in England and Wales.
