Reifer: WI not fazed by Aussies

NOTTINGHAM – Reigning world champion Australia will hold no terrors for a confident West Indies when the two teams clash at Trent Bridge in their second outings in the ICC World Cup on Thursday.

The last time the two teams met in a one-day international three years ago, West Indies went down by 58 runs in the final of a Tri-Nation Series in the Caribbean involving South Africa.

West Indies also came off the worse in the last bilateral series six years ago Down Under, suffering a 5-0 whitewash, but head coach Floyd Reifer says West Indies would be taking a “fearless” approach to the upcoming contest.

“We are not worried about them, we’re just focused on our game,” Reifer said here yesterday. (CMC)
