Sammy rues yet another missed chance

An inspired West Indies pulled India back from 172-2 to 268, and were cruising at 154-2 until their batting imploded. Ramnaresh Sarwan crawled his way to 39 as the team folded up for 188.

West Indies skipper Darren Sammy conceded that his side slipped in crucial moments, yet again.

Against South Africa, they lost their last five wickets for 13 runs; against England, they lost four wickets for three runs; and against India, their last eight wickets fell for just 34 runs.

"We created another opportunity where we could have won. Again, we failed to capitalise on it, obviously I am very disappointed. At 150 odd for two, we had the match in our favour," Sammy said.u00a0

"The only good thing is that we are going into the knockout stages. We can win three games, and win that the title. I am still backing my players. We can still come up with better shots. We must correct our mistakes quickly," he said.
