His aggressive stroke play and ability to find boundaries at will kept the scoreboard ticking and the pressure mounting on the opposition.

West Indies Falter in Run Chase

Although Walton showed some resistance with a 42-run knock and Bravo and Perkins chipped in with 30 runs each, their efforts weren’t enough to keep up with the rising required run rate.
