The 17th day of the 2023 ICC World Cup Qualifiers got underway as West Indies took on Oman in a dead rubber game. The game took place on July 5 at Harare Sports Club at 12:30 pm IST. Both teams have officially been knocked out of the World Cup race which is scheduled to take place in India later this year.

Both teams were playing for their pride and were eyeing a consolation victory before ending their disastrous tour on a high. It was indeed a shocking campaign for West Indies who entered the Qualifiers as obvious favorites.

But they lost their way in the middle and suffered embarrassing defeats at the hands of Scotland and the Netherlands which ultimately lead to their demise. Despite reeling from their defeats, they managed to put up a clinical performance against Oman as they outclassed them in all departments.

Romario Shepherd and Kyle Mayers bowled well upfront sharing six wickets between them. Other Winides bowlers kept a check on the scoring rate which did not allow Oman to get away with the game. While chasing, West Indies lost Charles early but Carty, alongside Brandon King, did well to rebuild.

King later opened up as the overs progressed and scored a brilliant 100 (104) to power his side to a handsome seven-wicket victory with 62 balls to spare.
