The two-time champions of the ICC Men’s T20I World Cup (2012 and 2016), the West Indies, are all set to begin their quest to become the first team in history to win the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup three times. The biggest advantage in this journey for the Caribbean team is that they are going to play at home, and if you don’t know already, beating the West Indies in a T20 match at their home venue is something next to impossible.
