Summary
England propelled themselves into the semi-finals of their home T20 World Cup with a 38-run win against West Indies on Wednesday evening at Lord’s. A half-century from Danni Wyatt-Hodge and a laboured 43 from Heather Knight helped England put 186 on the board, although the hosts’ effort was not without its nervy moments: Knight ran out first Wyatt-Hodge then herself, while the Freya Kemp-Dani Gibson engine room failed to ignite this time as England finished seven wickets down. West Indies captain Hayley Matthews was furious to be given out on review on 14 in the fourth over. From there, the West Indies innings gradually petered out. Deandra Dottin launched one huge six over long-on before being caught by Alice Capsey trying to repeat the feat, while Sophie Ecclestone had the in-form Shemaine Campbelle bowled missing a sweep shot.
Furthermore, Henry was dropped on 10, 28 and 45 among six dropped catches by England, its most in a T20 match in two years. Three thousand ticket holders had heeded government advice to avoid all non-essential travel and failed to show, although that still left a crowd of 14,000 in the stands. Even their captain, Hayley Matthews, got in on the act, shelling a chance at extra-cover to hand Knight a life on 14.
In addition, West Indies never truly threatened a target of 187 and finished on 148-5 in their 20 overs, with Chinelle Henry’s unbeaten 51 ensuring they batted out their full allocation even if they rarely threatened to get the runs they required. Matthews fell for 14 off 17 balls, but only after a brief show of dissent on the field before she continued her complaints with match referee Shandre Fritz.
