Abu Dhabi, Nov 6 (SocialNews.XYZ) Australia captain Aaron Finch has won the toss and elected to bowl first against West Indies in their last Group 1 match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium here on Saturday.
Finch said his playing eleven was unchanged from the win against Bangladesh. "It looks like a good wicket and won't change throughout the 40 overs. If you have to win the tournament then you have to win both ways. We won't think about it."
West Indies skipper Kieron Pollard said that leg-spinner Hayden Walsh Jr comes in for pacer Ravi Rampaul. "Obviously these guys, all of us have done over the last decade or so for the T20 game is just amazing. It is unfortunate that we couldn't get that one last hurrah in terms of getting to the next phase of the tournament. But today is another opportunity, it will be emotional for some but the important thing is to try and win the cricket game to salvage something."
