On 3rd April 2016, West Indies all-rounder Carlos Braithwaite became a national he🧸ro after dramatiꦡcally winning the World T20 title for his country in the most emphatic fashion.
The Windies and Englan🦩d squared off at the Eden Gardens in India for the summit clash with the ultimate prize up for grabs.
The English batsmen were out in the midd🍬le first, reaching a total o𝐆f 155-9 in their 20 overs.
In reply, the Caribbean innings got off to a horror start as they s🃏lumped to 11-3. A bit of a recovery in the midꦅdle phase of their innings got the Men in Marron back on track somewhat, but they remained far behind the required run-rate.
Marlon Samuels kept his team in the contest with a half-century, but it was le🔴ft to Brathwaite to deliver the killer blow in the final over of the🔯 match.
With 19 runs requir🍎ed off the final six deliveries, England all-rounder Ben Stokes stඣeamed in to get his team over the line.
But, the right-handed Brathwaite had other ideas as he smashed four massive consecutive sixes to take the We💯st Indies over the line 𝔉with two balls remaining.
The unexpected cameo handed the West Indies𝄹 their second T20 World 🐓Cup, while Brathwaite wrote his name into the history books in the process.
Meanwhile, St🐻okes on th🍌e fourth anniversary of 2016 World T20 final, recounted when he conceded four consecutive sixes against West Indies all-rounder Brathwaite to lose the showpiece event.
On Friday, Stokes quoted the tweet of ESPNcricinfo and wrote: “It’s that day again…happy 4 year anniversary here’s to many more happy year’s in the future.”

Stokes’ reaction on the tweet came as a surprise for the cricket fans since it is one of the most unpleasant moments of the English all-rounder’s career thus far.
