History repeated itself

Dear Editor,

On Saturday night I was still relishing the West Indies T20 win against India, when it dawned on me that in some ways, history had repeated itself.  You see 10 years ago, Dwayne Bravo got the wicket of Yuvraj Singh, and allowed WI to beat India by one run, in an ODI. The match was played at Sabina Park.

I would never forget the joy I felt after that win.  I was watching the game with my Rotaract colleagues at the YMCA.  We were quiet, and pensive in that final over, until the penultimate ball. All hell broke loose.  We leapt from our chairs, and started yelling and high fiving each other.  Long live West Indies Cricket.

Yours faithfully
