T20 WC: A Good Start Is All We're After, Says Hope After WI’s Winning Start To Campaign
T20 World Cup: West Indies skipper Shai Hope hailed his side’s strong start to the 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup campaign with a 35-run win over Scotland at Eden Gardens and credited Shimron Hetmyer’s fluent 64, as well as Romario Shepherd’s match-turning spell of 5-20, including a hat-trick.
"There's no margin for error in these tournaments. It's not like a bilateral series where you've got another game to get back into the series if you come up on the losing end, but a good start is all we're after. We felt we probably could have gone a little bit more, especially here in Eden Gardens.
“It's a chasing ground. I think the first score was 190 or something. So it was a bit challenging to start. It was just good to see the guys came back in the middle overs and showed what the power that we possess. Again with the ball, just putting it hard this time around and getting it right,” said Hope in the post-match presentation ceremony.
