Sammy deserves all the credit and love for this. Although yes, he should stick to T20 format. But hey, he'll soon be back to captaining test side, of course. Thanks to the awesome selectors, coach and team management in general. Yay.
Anywho, great win, awesome stuff. I'm really disappointed to see Starceh leak so much runs though.
Looks like the Windies gave Australia more than a fair whack! I was looking into the newspaper this morning and saw what the final 10 balls looked like. Sammy absolutely pummeled the Aussies it seems! This is good for Cricket! The Windies need to translate their T20 success to the other formats of the game as well. As an Indian, I am really happy that there's so much competition in the game these days!

Hello fella,windies are slowly climbing up that ladder as one hell of a force to reckon with.Sammy wanted to vent his anger on that particular Aussie and that was the reason for those huge sixes.You could see that rage when they were bowling,but yes...this is good for cricket..!!
As you said it was only a T20 game HOWEVER it was inspired by your boy Faulkner's words about getting inside their heads, upsetting their game and his dislike for WI's.
Haha!! Unfortunately this backfired big time on AUS ... James Faulkner should've kept his mouth shut in AUS' interests, BUT it worked for Windies so thanks a helluva lot James !!!
Admit though .... WI celebrations were over the top !!!
