Raza’s statement after defeating the mighty Windies in the qualifiers; Said, ‘Hungry to go to India…’
The 13th match of the ODI World Cup 2023 qualifiers took place at the Harare Sports Club ground on Saturday (June 24). In this match, the West Indies team was facing each other against Zimbabwe. In this match, the Zimbabwean team made a great turnaround by winning by 35 runs. West Indies’ hopes of reaching the World Cup have been dashed after this defeat. ‘Man of the match’ Sikander Raza, who became the hero of this victory of the Zimbabwe team, has given a big reaction after the match.
What did Alexander say?
In the match against the West Indies team, Sikander Raza did an all-round performance. He scored 68 off 58 balls first off the bat. This included 2 sixes and 6 fours. He then took 2 wickets for 36 runs in 8 overs while defending West Indies’ total of 269 runs. Speaking about the team’s plan after the match, he said, “I told my teammates to fight bravely. If we do that, our skills will do the rest. We are a few steps away from being the best team in the world.”
‘Hunger to go to India’
Speaking further, Raza said, “Our bowling is brilliant. Still I thought we were 20 to 30 runs short. However, our hunger to go to India compensated for these short runs. I don’t think we could have won on our skills alone. The audience has also played a big role.”
Batting first in the 13th match of the World Cup qualifiers, Zimbabwe scored 268 runs for the loss of 10 wickets in 49.5 overs. Chasing this challenge, the innings of two-time world champions West Indies crumbled like a house of cards for just 233 runs in 44.4 overs. Thus Zimbabwe team won the match by 35 runs.
