"西印度群島隊在世界T20板球錦標賽封王"

馬龍．山謬強而有力的一局將球隊推向勝利。

西印度群島隊週日在斯里蘭卡贏得世界T20板球錦標賽冠軍，以36分之差擊敗地主隊。全能選手山謬是勝利方的英雄人物，他在78球中打出56球，將球隊推向總分137-6（137分6人出局）。斯里蘭卡隊在球賽中苦撐，就在被投殺出局前，球門失守，最後只拿下101分。

勝利一開始離西印度群島隊很遠，因為斯里蘭卡投手讓他們在開場的10個投球輪只拿下32分。開場的斯里蘭卡擊球員蓋爾，在這次錦標賽中表現亮眼，但這場比賽只從16球中拿下3分。在西印度群島隊山謬上場擊球後，球隊風水輪流轉。他無情地攻擊對手投手，在他的那一局猛力揮出六個六分打。

靠著難纏的旋球，山謬也增加地主方的壓力。在解決掉最後一名斯里蘭卡擊球員後，「西印」隊在球道中間大跳「江南Style」舞來慶祝勝利。勝利方的隊長沙米表示，這次勝利可以幫助球隊重返先前在國際板球界的主宰地位。「這場勝利對西印度群島隊而言是個開端。」

(Sport) West Indies Win World T20 Cricket Tournament

A powerful innings by Marlon Samuels propelled the team towards victory.

The West Indies won the World Twenty20 cricket tournament in Sri Lanka on Sunday, beating the hosts by 36 runs. All-rounder Marlon Samuels was the hero for the winning side, as his 56-ball 78 propelled his team to a total of 137-6. Sri Lanka struggled in the chase and lost wickets quickly before being bowled out for just 101 runs.

Victory was far from straightforward for the Windies, as Sri Lankas bowlers held them to just 32 from the opening 10 overs. Opening batsman Chris Gayle, who has been so impressive throughout the tournament, scored only three runs from 16 balls. The teams fortunes changed when Samuels came out to bat. He ruthlessly attacked the opposition bowlers, smashing six sixes in his innings.

With his tight spin bowling, Samuels also helped increase the pressure on the home side. After removing the last Sri Lankan batsmen, the Windies celebrated by dancing Gangnam Style in the middle of the pitch. Winning captain Darren Sammy suggested that this victory could help the team return to its former dominant position in international cricket. This is the start of something special for the West Indies team, he said.
