Darren Sammy completes the highest T20 run chase in the history of the game.

This game would have been a loss if it weren't for Sammy's 20 off 7 balls. While all the other cowlashers crumbled with the pressure, Sammy revealed himself to be a cowlasher of  mighty proportions.

When it comes to tail-end, match saving cow-lashing, there is none better than Darren Sammy.

Time and time again, Gayle sets up a good score, the middle order does nothing, and Sammy is called upon to salvage things. We salute you Sammy.

West Indies now have the highest Test and T20 run chases.

THE CAPTAIN DELIVERED WHEN IT MATTERED.

THERE IS NO ROOM IN T20 FOR POKING AND JOOKING
