Match 25 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 brings together West Indies and Nepal in a Group C clash at the Wankhede Stadium. The West Indies enter the contest as favourites, especially after an impressive 30-run win over England in their previous outing. They are at the top of the points table in Group C with two consecutive wins so far in the tournament. Their top and middle order, led by some of the most dangerous batsmen in the world, like Sherfane Rutherford and Shimron Hetmyer, has been really impactful and consistent.

Nepal, despite being winless so far, have shown their quality, especially against England, where they took the game into the last over and lost by just 4 runs. They have a recent history of upsetting higher-ranked sides in T20 cricket. They will rely upon their captain Rohit Paudel and key all-rounder Dipendra Singh Airee. With the ball, leg-spinner Sandeep Lamichhane remains their biggest weapon against a power-packed West Indies lineup.
Notably, Nepal is marginally ahead in the WI vs NEP H2H rivalry, as they have won twice against the West Indies in a three-match T20I series. For the WI vs NEP Dream11 team prediction, Sherfane Rutherford and Dipendra Singh Airee should be backed as captains in your fantasy team because of their recent form and ability to contribute with both bat and ball.
