When the player supposed to lead the way scores just three off 16 balls, you expect only one winner - the opposition. Sri Lanka would have liked to believe that after they made Chris Gayle hop like a cat on a hot tin roof at the start of the World Twenty20 final on Sunday.
But powered by fellow Jamaican Marlon Samuels, the Calypso kings roared back to eventually break Sri Lankan hearts and prove that a challenging start doesn't mean one simply gives up hope.
Dancing delight
To the delight of their fans back home, for once Darren Sammy's army walked the talk and showed that the team had more to it than Gayle, going on to lift the trophy with a 36-run win over the hosts at the Premadasa stadium.
The game was made all the more entertaining by the antics of the West Indies players.
