West Indies not one-man army, says skipper Sammy

Sammy warned his team mates that the West Indies cannot afford to be a one-man army if they are to replicate their success of two years ago.

“Chris to me is the most destructive T20 batsman in the world,” Sammy told reporters in Dhaka.

“It’s a great asset for us having him in the side but like in Sri Lanka, when we won the title, it took a total team effort. The key players (contributed), different guys chipped in in different games.

“It’s no difference this time, we got to play as a team, we got to gel well together and hopefully performance will come from the key players,” Sammy said, terming Gayle as an important dressing room figure who would play a “pivotal role” in their title defence.
