Owner of Peshawar Zalmi, Javed Afridi, announced a sum of $ 20,000 to Darren Sammy for his steller performance in Twenty20 World Cup 2016.
In the finals, Carlos Brathwaite hit four consecutive sixes in the ultimate over as the West Indies stunned England to lift the World Twenty20 title in Kolkata today.
The Windies went into the last over needing 19 to win and with expert ‘death bowler’ Ben Stokes handed the ball, it looked like England were all set to win this one
But Brathwaite held his nerve to fire the Windies to an unlikely four-wicket win with two balls to spare, leaving Stokes devastated on the field.
Marlon Samuels anchored the West Indies’ run chase of 156 with an unbeaten 85, including nine boundaries and two sixes, after England had posted 155-9 in their 20 overs.
After being reduced to 11 for three, Samuels single-handedly kept the Caribbean team in the hunt with his 66-ball blitz.
