Karachi: West Indies captain Darren Sammy has admitted that their final World Twenty20 Super-10 match against Pakistan is a `do-or-die` game for them, adding that either they need to `play big or go home`.
Sammy was at the forefront of the West Indies` exuberant celebrations after the six-wicket win against Australia, although he revealed that the celebrations would only last the one night and that the team would then focus on the game against Pakistan. According to The Nation, Sammy said that his team have now settled down from their celebrations are currently focusing on their must-win match against Pakistan, adding that they are aware that they have not yet won the tournament and that the game is a `do-or-die` one for them. Stating that they have a good relationship with most, if not all, of the teams playing in the tournament, Sammy also said that although they are friends with a lot of Pakistani players, they hope that in the end, it is the West Indies who will win the tournament. However, Sammy admitted that Pakistan is playing very well at the moment for which they need to watch the four-pronged spin attack of Saeed Ajmal, Shahid Afridi, Zulfiqar Babar and Mohammad Hafeez very carefully, and hoped that they play much better against spin than they have done in the past.
