Clash of the T20 WC co-hosts as WI and USA seek crucial points

This is the first time West Indies find themselves under the pressure of their margin for error diminishing. The USA may not have won since that upset against Pakistan, but have shown no signs of fading away tamely, and briefly looked like running South Africa extremely close in their first Super Eight game before ultimately succumbing to an 18-run defeat.
Aaron Jones' side, too, need a win to retain realistic hopes of qualification, but they will be aware the weight of expectations remains on their opponents. The game against South Africa was the USA's weakest bowling performance on a belting track, and still gave South Africa a few jitters. Against a West Indies side who weren't really close to their best with either bat or ball against England, the USA will know an improved bowling performance on their part gives them a realistic shot at keeping their fairytale campaign alive and kicking.

Pool Stats

I must say I'm in a bit of surprise for 3 of our very punctual stackers have played a maiden over (missed the match) between Australia and Bangladesh, which is a very easy pick.
You should instead use this 'maiden over' opportunity for tough matches like we're going to have between England and SA. So, it is like a wasted opportunity. Remember, you can only use 3 maiden overs before being 'clean bowled'

You can also miss 2 more times. Because there's no reentry to super 8 and later knockout stages, everyone's allowed to miss 3 games maximum. As you know, some are easy pickings and some are hard ones. So, missing a match that is 'tough picking the winner' is a better missing.
Remember, you can only use 3 maiden overs before being 'clean bowled'

I would definitely have picked Australia, though. Apparently, I need to be more diligent.
reply
This also surprised me considering the post wasn't a delayed one. Not only you but @grayruby? Can't believe!!

What did I do?
reply
You played a maiden over in Australia vs Bangladesh match.
reply
What does that mean?
reply
That means you missed to predict in a match and you're left with two more 'miss the match' opportunities only.
reply
That was domination.
US left their magic at home.
