Darren Sammy on Thursday made a bold prediction as the former West Indies skipper said that the Caribbean will lift the 2019 World Cup Trophy.
Known for his dazzling batting, Sammy insisted that Windies can do it for sure. While talking in the ICC Cricket World Cup Preview show, he said:
“West Indies will win the World Cup.”
Sammy also assumed that Chris Gayle who will be retiring after the tournament can bring the cup home,
“With Chris Gayle retiring, the ‘Universe Boss’ will want to leave with a bang. I just have a strong feeling.” He remarked.
After triumphing the first two editions of World Cup, West Indies has constantly failed to lift the title. However, Darren is confident of making it happen this time around,
“It’s been 40 years since we last won the World Cup. I’m a biblical man and the number 40 comes up a lot in the bible… I think it’s our time to rise up.” He said.
“I think man-for-man the batting line-up is really good. The key is to have bowlers who can take wickets in English conditions and I think we have that.”
