Stellar performances by lower ranked teams at Women’s T20 World Cup

LONDON: The words of the West Indies coach, Shane Deitz, resounded during the matches that followed his team’s victory over New Zealand in the 11th match of the 2026 T20 Women’s World Cup. Deitz felt that the gap is gradually closing between the top teams and the rest. This opinion was supported in subsequent press interviews with players and coaches, especially in terms of any team in this tournament being capable of beating any other team on its day. In the West Indies’ very next match against Scotland, they were on the brink of being beaten by a team ranked five places below them.
