Icc World Cup Twenty20 Final 2012

west indies win the t20 world cup

 

Match Score card

ICC World Twenty20 final, Colombo (RPS)

West Indies (137-6) beat

Sri Lanka (101) all out (18.4 overs) by 36 runs

A Marlon Samuels-inspired West Indies healthier from an dreadful start to beat Sri Lanka and win the World Twenty20.

The hosts look to be in manage in Colombo when the Windies managed only 32 from the first 10 overs, with Chris Gayle taking 16 balls to make three.

But Samuels smashed six sixes in his 56-ball 78 to drag his side to 137-6.

Sri Lanka never got to grip with the follow and, though Nuwan Kulasekara's 13-ball 26 gave them expect, they were bowled out for 101 in the 19th over.

The beat was Sri Lanka's fourth in as countless finals after losing the 2009 World T20 final to Pakistan, as well as the 2007 and 2011World Cups to Australia and India correspondingly.

West Indies had under enemy control the game from the late 1970s from side to side to the 1990s,winning the first two World Cups and terrorising batsmen with a seemingly endless provide of world-class pace bowlers.

on the other hand, a fall from elegance in all formats had seen them not lift a major trophy since ninth-wicket pair Courtney Browne and Ian Bradshaw added 71 to beat England in the 2004 Champions Trophy final, and this response was of a comparable scale.

Darren Sammy's men looked likely to be on the wrong end of a beating as Sri Lanka's new-ball bowlers practical vice-like heaviness, which proved too much for the typically unflustered Gayle.
