West Indies skipper Darren Sammy said the World Twenty20 victory over Sri Lanka here Sunday was very special and will be the beginning of things to come.
"This hopefully will be the beginning of things to come. Hopefully this team will go on. For the last two years, we've shown the never say die attitude but we haven't had the results," said Sammy in the post-match presentation ceremony.
"This moment we're going to live forever. The team has been through a lot in the last 10 years. The mission was to win the World T20, the belief we left the Caribbean with has pulled us through. Today we were down and out but our never say die attitude came out."
This was the West Indies' first world title since they won the World Cup in 1979.
