We can upset any team : Gayle
At the moment, they may be underdogs, but they can upset any team in the world.
Clive Lloyd's team in 1975 and 1979 was formidable, with four fast bowlers bowling around 150 kph.
Now the present team do not have such fiery pacemen. But still they have Pollard and Gayle, two of the most feared batsmen in ODIs and T20s.
Gayle has sounded warning that they can upset any team. All teams beware. According to Border, there is one player who can singlehandedly win the Cup. And that is Gayle.
But then cricket is such a glorious game of Chance that no bookie will give good odds to a team who banks on two or three players only. Hence the 20/1 favourites position.
Gayle and the newly appointed captain Darren Sammy say that WI will reach the quarter finals. Allan Border is of the view, that if Gayle is not contained, other teams will lose the Cup !
Said the colossal hitter " We want to get the record straight this time. There are a lot of expectations from people back home. We want to go all out for them. This is my third World Cup. I'm treating it like my final Cup."
"The West Indies have a legacy of winning and I want to give my best to win matches for us".
"We go in as the underdogs. But we want to be the team that upsets biggies and the one that gets through to the quarter-finals".
"Yes, we have had some difficult times these past few months, but its behind us. The seniors and the juniors in the team are united to win games in this tournament."
"We are a bit fresher than other teams I suppose, having spent more time indoors than on the field. This is my first World Cup and like many other young people in my team I am excited to have the chance to restore our cricket legacy." said the triple centurion.
