As the ICC Women's T20 World Cup heats up in the United Arab Emirates, West Indies Women's skipper Hayley Matthews has voiced her determination to overcome the setback against South Africa Women. The team endured a significant 10-wicket defeat, raising concerns about key players' fitness, including pacer Zaida James, who was injured.
Meanwhile, Scotland Women are similarly eager to bounce back after falling short against Bangladesh. Despite the loss, opener Sarah Bryce impressed with an unbeaten 49, and the team is gearing up with high morale, looking to make history under the leadership of Kathryn Bryce.
With both teams poised for a crucial clash, the West Indies aim not to rely solely on star players like Stafanie Taylor. Captain Hayley Matthews underscores the importance of regrouping quickly, while Scotland remains driven by national pride and unity as they strive to make their mark.
