West Indies can make history at World T20
Wednesday, 2 April 2014
West Indian captain Darren Sammy was confident Wednesday that his side can achieve what no other team has done in the history of the World Twenty20 -- defend the title. Famous for playing a cavalier brand of cricket, the West Indies won the fourth edition of the World Twenty20 in Sri Lanka two years ago, and are now just two matches away from defending it. They meet Sri Lanka in the first of two semi-finals in Dhaka on Thursday. Sammy said his side was ready to make history. "We left the Caribbean with that motivating factor for us," he said. "It's something which no team has done before and we are confident that we can do that if we play the brand of cricket we played in the last three games." India won the inaugural World Twenty20 title held in South Africa in 2007, before Pakistan clinched the second tournament in England two years later. England won the third tournament, held in the Caribbean in 2010, according to AFP.
