West Indies 'can go all the way' in World Cup
Hero of their win against Pakistan, Andre Russell, says his team have turned the corner and are capable of going on to seal the tournament
The West Indies believe they have turned the corner as they prepare to face Zimbabwe in a pivotal pool B World Cup match at Canberra's Manuka Oval on Tuesday.
The West Indians celebrated their first victory of the tournament with a thumping 150-run win over Pakistan in Christchurch on Saturday after their shock first-up loss to Ireland.
Tuesday's match is set up nicely after Zimbabwe also posted their first points with a four-wicket triumph against the United Arab Emirates at Nelson last Thursday.
On the day we have to turn up. It doesn't matter which team we play against, we're going to have to play our A game
West Indies will start favourites to beat the Zimbabweans after winning 34 of their previous 44 one-day international encounters against the Africans, but, as Ireland showed, upsets are possible.
"It's a very good feeling winning a game after losing to Ireland, in that manner," said Andre Russell, man of the match against Pakistan with an unbeaten 42 and three for 33.
"It just goes to show that the West Indies can dominate and we are here to compete.
"On the day we have to turn up. It doesn't matter which team we play against, we're going to have to play our A game.
