Ex-India star warns: No IPL contracts if we lose to West Indies

Manoj Tiwary joked that a loss to the West Indies could impact future IPL contracts. India faces a decisive knockout match in Kolkata.

Former India cricketer Manoj Tiwary humorously suggested that failing to beat the West Indies in their ICC T20 World Cup Super 8 clash could jeopardize future IPL contracts. India and the West Indies are tied on points, making the Sunday encounter a straight shootout for a semi-final berth.

Former opener Virender Sehwag cautioned against underestimating the Caribbean side, noting that no team is invincible on the world stage. With England, New Zealand, and South Africa already qualified, the winner of this high-pressure showdown secures the final spot.
