Four years ago in 2016, the West Indies men's team captured the T20 World Cup at the Eden Gardens, in which four consecutive sixes off the bat of all-rounder Carlos Brathwaite turned the match around. At one time, the match seemed to be going in favor of England, but in the last over, Brathwaite took the victory from the English team's mouth by hitting sixes off Ben Stokes. Braithwaite said that this is his best memory of India. After receiving this title, he felt that he is like Universe boss Chris Gayle in the subcontinent. Braithwaite said that cricket is like religion in India. Like Gayle, he too was surrounded.
He said that once Chris Gayle was surrounded by fans at the airport, then he was standing near him. But after the World Cup, when he himself came to India to play for Delhi Daredevils, the same thing happened to him.
Bangalore is the best for the party: Braithwaite said that Bangalore is his favorite city in India in terms of party, while Kolkata is also special. Braithwaite and his wife also like Mumbai very much. Braithwaite said that he would play for Delhi Daredevils for two years, where pollution caused a lot of trouble. While he was here, the rules of Odd and Even were in force. The veteran all-rounder has expressed the hope that he will soon be seen in the IPL and will demonstrate that any franchise will show interest in buying him.
Four sixes changed the match: Caribbean team was chasing 156 in the final of 2016 T20 World Cup. West Indies needed 19 runs to win in the last over and there were only four wickets in hand. Braithwaite and Marlon Samuels were present at the crease. Ben Stokes came on the attack to throw the last over, which could turn the match dice. But on the first four balls of his over, Brathwaite gave his team the title by hitting four consecutive sixes. Brathwaite scored an unbeaten 34 off 10 balls. Samuels scored an unbeaten 85 runs.
