It’s a new low for the West Indies. commodity which was unbelievable in the history has happed. The two- time titleholders on Saturday crashed out of the race to qualify for the forthcoming 2023 50- over World Cup in India, after Scotland shocked them by seven lattices in a Super Six match of the qualifier, then on Saturday. The titleholders of 1975 and 1979 editions, this is the first time in the 48 times of event history that West Indies will not feature among the top 10 brigades in limited overs justice.
On Saturday, the West Indies formerly again produced a dismal show with the club — 181 all- eschewal in43.5 overs — and Scotland showed no compunctions in knocking off the target to win with seven lattices in hand and6.3 overs to spare and pile up further discredit on the two- time world titleholders.
Matt Cross( 74 not out off 107 balls) and Brendon McMullen( 69 off 106 balls) added 125 for the alternate gate to seal the palm.

Having lost a pivotal hassle in Super Over eliminator to the Netherlands in a Group A match, which followed a loss to Zimbabwe, the West Indies entered the Super Six round with no points and a net run rate which was inferior to the other brigades.
West Indies were always dependent on the outgrowth of other matches.
West Indies did have four points having before beaten the USA( by 35 runs) and Nepal( 101 runs), but the bus came off fleetly owing to poor justice across departments.
But since they lost to both Zimbabwe and the Netherlands who both good for the Super Six from Group A — the West Indies carried no points further.
