West Indies take on Australia in match number two of the T20I series at Jamaica on Tuesday. The visitors have taken a 1-0 lead in the series after a decisive win in the first game. West Indies will now be looking to even things out in the second match, but it won’t be easy against an Australian side that’s looking really strong across the board.

West Indies had their moments in the first T20I, but couldn’t capitalize on them to take Australia out of the game. Batting first, they were 159-2 in 15.2 overs at one point, but collapsed to an under-par 189-8, which the victors chased comfortably.
Still, the home side would take plenty of positives from the first game. Captain Shai Hope (55 off 39) and Roston Chase (60 off 32) set the platform up top, while Shimron Hetmyer capitalized on it with a blazing knock of 38 off 19.
West Indies would be ruing how the others in the unit failed to carry the momentum forward. However, they still have plenty of promise, and the likes of Brandon King, Rovman Powell, and Andre Russell, who will be playing his final T20I, can make it count in this game.
The bowling unit is really good for these conditions. Their spinners, Gudakesh Motie and Akeal Hosein, especially, will be their main asset on this pitch. Alzarri Joseph tends to be expensive, but he is also a genuine wicket-taker. Then they also have Jason Holder to keep things quiet with his variety of slower ones.

Australia will head into the next game full of confidence after an impressive win in the first T20I. Their batting order looked solid, chasing down 190 with ease thanks to quickfire fifties from Cameron Green and Mitchell Owen. Both are young talents who showed just how strong Australia’s middle-order can become. Mitchell Owen was making his debut at this level and brought his form from Major League Cricket 2025, where he scored over 300 runs. He is surely one to watch out for.
Up top, Mitchell Marsh and Josh Inglis bring the firepower and can take the game away early. Glenn Maxwell hasn’t had the best run lately, but his experience adds value and can’t be ignored.
With the ball, Ben Dwarshuis delivered a game-changing spell, finishing with 4 for 36, including three wickets in a single over. He and Nathan Ellis closed the innings well, taking four wickets for just seven runs across the last 16 deliveries and holding West Indies to 189 for 8. Sean Abbott and Adam Zampa round out a bowling attack that has plenty of options.

Fast bowlers usually enjoy the early bounce at Sabina Park, especially while there's some carry. Once the ball softens, batting becomes a bit easier. The pitch tends to slow down as the game moves on, which brings spinners into play during that middle phase. The outfield is quick, so finding the gaps can bring good returns. Chasing here under lights is usually the better option, as batting becomes easier in the second innings.
In Guyana, the forecast shows mostly cloudy skies with a chance of light rain later in the evening.
Sabina Park sees an average first innings score of 166. The highest total on this ground is 215 for 5, scored by New Zealand against West Indies in 2022. Based on what we saw in the first T20I, a target in the 190-200 range should be enough to make things tough for the team batting second.
Chasing is usually the preferred route at Sabina Park. That was the case in the first game, where Australia bowled first and got the job done with ease. So it’s likely both captains will want to bowl first if they win the toss.
West Indies will want to level the series after falling short in the first T20I. This format usually suits them, and with the kind of power-hitters they have, they can put pressure on Australia—if they avoid throwing their wickets away. That said, the challenge is steep. Australia have taken 13 wins from their last 15 in this format, including the opener of this series, and they look full of belief. Their batting lineup has more depth right now, and unless West Indies can put early brakes on the scoring early, this could slip away from them again.
Back Australia as the winners of the second T20I.
