Life isn't about "how much". It's more about "what". It wasn't the Gayles or Pollards who contributed in the both T20 World Cup wins. It was Marlon Samuels on both occasions. The heroics of Bratwaite, Browne and Bradshaw (2002 CT final) will be celebrated by cricket fans forever. Thank you for posting this video!
No absolutely not everyone. As an Australian fan I had a horrifying experience of 2012 semfinal and 2014 group stage. Even most Indians hate west indies after 2016 World Cup. By hate I mean the emotional hate in cricket. Not any personal hate.
One of the most courageous innings I have ever seen. He actually hit Malinga for 5 huge sixes. That by itself is extraordinarily. Marlon knows his abilities very well, it's why he talk so much soon as the opportunity arises .Lolz.
@@professor7098 Well because he misremembers it. It didn't happen suddenly. Samuels scored 78 out of 108 runs by WI. It was Darren Sammy who gave a sudden spike in the run rate afterwards.
Ah finally.. thanks icc for remembering this innings. This was one of the greatest t20 innings. ICC please create a digital library or anything kind of to watch these classic icc matches.
Samuels 78 in 2012 final and 85* in 2016 T20 world cup final ..both are much better innings than the kohli 82 against pakistan..as these 2 knocks came into the big stage and won world cup for west indies..its very sad that..just becoz samuels doesnt have the toxic fan base and PR like kohli ..it was not highlighted enought by the ICC itself
78 out of 108 in a t20 World Cup final... WoW & then something similar happened in the final of 2016 T20 WC... to understand the importance of these 2 innings just have a conversation with South African cricket fans 😁
I remember this match. Till 12th over in WI innings it looked like it’s going to be an easy win for Sri Lanka. This was a gem of an innings on a big stage by Samuels
He always performed in big games but in the build up to big games such as finals or semi-finals he made it really hard to keep him in the team because he was so inconsistent and poor when not called upon. And he used to frustrate West Indies fans because he would always show his worth and talent in big games but never seemed to perform on route to the final
@@thealphaandtheomega8449 nah ipl is just t20 and not every cricket match is a tournament he was one of the greatest all rounders i have ever seen along with kallis and ben stokes maybe they both weren't at the level of kallis but they were better than most batsman and most bowlers just like kallis
He was the reason West Indies won those two T20 championship. He showed up in those finals. I know Carlos hit the four 6's, but Samuels was on 85 looking on
Hosts were the favourites. Especially when windies were struggling at 50 for 2 in 12 overs... But samuels smashed the game right there and windies carried the momentum.. Loved their victory dance and kudos to the crowd for being sporty ..
I know but it worked out well because they lost this one they had the motivation to do it again in 2014 T20WC and to win the final by hitting a six against india
I still remember the evening the night he played that knock..and its the innings that is still into my memory afresh...I do feel that it's the best innings I have seen so far at International level,, also Ben stokes innings was equally good in World cup final as well as ashes 4 test
Finally got this to see,it wasn't available on TH-cam! Great innings by Marlon,one man show it was🔥 Sammy has great sportsmanship,he came n punched the glove after he got out
Absolutely one of the best innings under pressure, playing away from home. Moreover Sri Lanka was playing in their home conditions, so undoubtedly one of the best knocks I've seen from Samuels! His stats don't speak for him but he had the talent to score more in his career, certainly a match winner on his given day!
Its a mixed bag for me. He showed too much to be underrated and I rate him highly even in test cricket. He was a Wisden cricketer of the year in 2013. At his best he looked like a legend and could have developed into an all time great. He debuted in tests at 19 with I think one first class match behind but he went and practiced with the West Indian team before the 2000 tour of Australia and was picked that way.....I think. Check out his first ODI century v India at aged 21 or 22.
Yes, Greatest innings ever. Smashing Malinga by clearing the leg shows how much expertise he had. He studied what could be done about the Malinga Threat. He found an answer. Not just that. He planned and executed it too.
Samuels was the reason behind West Indies winning 2 WT20. He contributed in both 2012 and 2016 finals. He never got enough appreciation that he deserved.
Such a great talent that never fulfilled his potential. Sparks of magic in all formats of the game but so inconsistent at the same time. Honestly in my opinion it was his subconscious mind and arrogance that kept his talents at bay where he could of been of of the greats! Thanks for the memories and contributions MS!
He is marlon samuels He is a big match player,he is not made for quarter finals,semi finals... He is made for finals... Two world cup finals man of the match where other batsmen were struggling in a big time....Big up the Jamaican The land of entertainers🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
I was watching the game and, Marlon Samuels took it to the SriLankans bowlers them. Marlon Samuels is a great batsman on any given day, that inning must be rated against every other innings.Great knock Marlon Samuels,we know that you are great batsman.
Still remember this final, after that initial collapse, it seemed that Sri Lanka were untouchable and then Samuels happened along with some gritty bowling by the Windies.
During his dismissal he scored almost 80% of his team score, Wat an innings under pressure,i remember being scared that its gonna be a cakewalk for SL with their home advantage but unexpectedly SL crumbled at middle overs and marlon contributed one wicket also.No doubt this is the greatest overall performance in t20 cricket considering the event.

I saw this match live and it felt like Marlon was playing in a different pitch....unreal innings under immense pressure.... SL just capitulated in response...probably the best innings in any format finals!!!!
Saw this whole wcup live. Till the final wi bullied everyone. Suddenly they were in a huge trouble till this onslaught by samuels in final 8 overs. And he targeted the main bowler and that too at his prime. Those were yorkers its just that deep open stance used by samuels that made them look like length balls.
Some crickets are great and some have had great moments. Others pile up runs but when the team really really needs some runs they often fall short. I am sure Rohit Sharma, a brilliant batsman by the way, would trade in one of those centuries he scored in the last world cup for a 75 in the game India was knocked out.
This is just 3 and a half minutes of Samuels bullying Malinga
