In the wake of West Indies' seven-wicket defeat to England, team captain Rovman Powell delved into his side's tactics and hurdles during the post-match presentation. Powell candidly highlighted the significant influence of initial six overs in Barbados on match outcomes, as he attempted to pinpoint key areas for improvement.

The captain stressed the necessity of emerging from the powerplay with minimal losses, as statistics indicate a negative trajectory if three wickets fall early.
