The balance between bat and ball clearly needs redressing. The last QF, today, saw NZ score 393 in 50 overs and the Windies make 250 in 30 overs in reply. That is 643 runs in 80 overs, or better than 8 RPO for the the match. This WC has also seen two double centuries in a month.

Maybe so but no amount of redressing can camouflage the dross served up by the WI in the last 15 overs

Pakistan did likewise in the last 15 vs. Oz : and seems to becoming a Norm
233 unearned runs should be subtracted from that 643 for Samuels Drop catch !
Butter Fingers has nothing to do with the Bat imbalance ...
