Historic tournament in the West Indies and USA

Darren Sammy’s forecast for the winner of T20 World Cup 2024

Expressing his thoughts ahead of the 1st T20I against Australia, Sammy believed that the West Indies holds the potential to emerge as champions, aiming to secure the trophy on home soil – a feat that would make them the first team to achieve such a triumph in their home conditions. In addition to his illustrious playing career, Sammy currently serving as West Indies’ white-ball coach. He reflected on the team’s impressive T20I series victories last year, highlighting the momentum they have as they approach the T20I series against Australia.

“The way we’ve progressed over the last year; we didn’t lose a T20 series in 2023, confidence is building, momentum is building. We all believe that we can become the first team to actually win the tournament at home and that’s what we are working towards,”ও Sammy was quoted as saying by the cricket.com.au.
