The atmosphere in Texas looked great and I think it marks the day the World Cup really started. He scored 90-odd against Canada to see them home and now this in the Super Over – what a ICC Men’s T20 World Cup he has had already. It's never easy playing home, especially in a big occasion like a World Cup, because the expectation is so high. It is actually quite rare for a home team to win a T20 World Cup but hopefully this year will be a change of fortune. Having not qualified for the last ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, this tournament is so important for cricket in the Caribbean.
