Roston Chase, 32, bowled his best T20I performance (3/19 in four overs) when the West Indies most needed it, right when it appeared the wickets column might remain empty and meaningless following his one-wicket performance in the ten overs of the T20 World Cup 2024 match against the USA.
He was the sixth bowler to be unleashed, and he made an immediate impression by getting rid of Aaron Jones, the captain, who posed a serious threat before the game. But his most significant contribution came in his third over, when he bowled southpaws Harmeet Singh and Corey Anderson off successive deliveries, thus ending the USA innings. The USA’s downfall, from which they would never fully recover, was brought about by this devastating double blow.
Roston Chase expressed his enormous delight and happiness at giving a fantastic performance in front of his friends and family who were present at the stadium during an interview with the announcers following his award as Player of the Match. Having been born in the same town, he had a strong personal connection to the location, thus he especially treasured the occasion.

According to Chase, the dressing room had a pre-established plan that emphasised the spinners’ responsibility to lead the West Indies back into the game in the event that the USA secured a potent powerplay, which they did, scoring 48/1 in the first six overs. He also revealed the specifics of a chaotic day before the game, which included almost missing the squad bus and other issues that interfered with his preparation.
“It feels amazing to perform my best figures at home in front of my relatives and family. During the team meeting, we discussed how it is our responsibility as spinners to limit them if the powerplay goes well. “I wasn’t having the best of days today, almost missed the bus,” Chase said to the reporters following the WI-USA game.
