Considering Carlos Brathwaite walloped four successive sixes off Ben Stokes in the final over to win the World Twenty20 for West Indies, you wouldnt think he was an anxious batsman. Yet the 27-year-old Barbadian all-rounder - who is currently part of Delhi Daredevils squad in the star-filled Indian Premier League - insists that was the case a few years ago.Brathwaite, though, says the remedy has been simple - graft away in training and accept that failure is inevitable. I realised that I could always hold my nerve with the ball but with the bat I was always a bit jittery, Brathwaite told Sky Sports Mark Butcher.I have worked really hard in the nets and in the lead-up to games but I also know that, despite that, there could always be one ball with my name on it or one that I middle straight to the fielder. At the beginning of that over [in the World T20 final] it was a matter of knowing what I needed to do, that if I failed it wouldnt be for a lack of preparation or trying, and that I should just give it a go. Carlos Brathwaite I have now accepted that you can fail - you will do that more than you perform - and that its not about failing but how you react; that has kept me in better stead than trying to hold my nerve.At the beginning of that over [in the World T20 final] it was a matter of knowing what I needed to do, that if I failed it wouldnt be for a lack of preparation or trying, and that I should just give it a go.Give it a go he did. Brathwaite is embraced by Marlon Samuels after Windies dramatic win With West Indies requiring 19 from six deliveries to lift the World T20 title for a second time - they previously won it by beating hosts Sri Lanka in 2012 - Brathwaite deposited Stokes into the stands at deep backward square, long-on, long-off and deep midwicket.Marlon Samuels (85 not out) was at the non-strikers end but Brathwaite says at no point did he consider nudging for one and going against the positive approach West Indies had championed throughout.If you think 19 off six youre next thought is no possible chance, said the powerful right-hander, who took 3-23 in Englands score of 155-9.So I tried to take myself out of the situation, out of the equation, out of the atmosphere, out of everything, and narrow it down to bat versus ball - watch the ball and react. If I tried to hit a single after hitting a six and then missed out on a rank half-volley or a full toss and Stokes nailed fours yorkers against Marlon at the backend, then it was on me. Carlos Brathwaite We had been preaching responsibility in the dressing room from the beginning of the World Cup so if I tried to hit a single after hitting a six and then missed out on a rank half-volley or a full toss and Stokes nailed fours yorkers against Marlon at the back-end, then it was on me.My mind-set was that if I sky one in the air and get caught but we cross then Marlon is batting, but if I get it away then there are less runs to get at the back-end of the over.I just tried to maximise every delivery - fortunately for me I hit four for six and we were World T20 champions.Despite a second World T20 triumph in three tournaments, West Indies form in Test and one-day international cricket has tailed off. West Indies celebrate on the podium after defeating England The Caribbean clan are languishing in eighth spot in the Test rankings, while they have failed to qualify for the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy in England.Brathwaite believes the team have become stagnant in the longer forms but hopes their T20 success can boost their fortunes in all cricket.At this point we have the best T20 team in the world, but when it comes to other formats we are yet to find the correct structure and the way we want to play, he added.The longer the format, the more we are caught between wanting to play our natural game and putting that into a concept of stretching it to 50 overs or Test cricket. The quicker we find a way to mesh our natural game and the way the game is supposed to be played - or maybe we reinvent how we should play - thats when youll see our results go up and up.Teams do go stagnant and some drop from the glories and never reach those heights again - we are probably stagnant and have been for a lot longer than we would like.But it only takes a little spark to take teams back and I hope this T20 victory and the passion it brought out in the Caribbean supporters gives the will to come back.Watch Delhi Daredevils in action in the IPL on on Tuesday.

It was New Jersey native Miller who was the sharper fighter early, taking advantage of a typical slow start from Cerrone to rack points with a crisp jab and aggressive gameplan. But that changed in the second, as Cerrone took control of the fight. Using crushing knees to the body and big punches up top, Cerrone began to deal crushing shots in the standup game. A front kick to the liver nearly ended the fight, but referee Dan Miragliotta mistakenly thought the shot was to the groin and called timeout. Miller explained the shot was legal, and the bout was restarted, potentially robbing Cerrone of a chance to finish the fight. It hardly mattered. On the restart, Cerrone went right back on the attack, drilling the body before launching a high kick that landed flush and sent Miller tumbling to the floor. Cerrone jumped on top to secure the finish, and Miragliotta waved off the fight at the 3:31 mark of the round. In the nights co-feature, lightweight striker Edson Barboza (14-2) made quick work of Evan Dunham (14-6), landing a devastating kick to the liver that ended the fight at the 3:06 mark of the first round. Barboza was patient from the centre of the cage as Dunham looked to move in and out of range and set up a potential takedown. The strategy paid off, as they two never got into any real dangerous exchanges. Instead, a well-placed kick to the body saw Dunham crumple to the canvas, and Barboza followed with a few punches to secure the TKO stoppage. "Everybody knows my background is in muay Thai," Barboza said. "I saw his elbow come up a little bit, and just as my coach taught me, it was the opening I needed for the win." Longtime welterweight contender Rick Story (17-8) looked impressive in a one-sided destruction of Brazilian Leonardo Mafra (11-2), manhandling him the opening round before scoring a submission win in the second. While Mafra looked eager to turn the fight into a striking battle, Story wisely exploited his opponents weaknesses by repeatedly throwing him to the floor and controlling the action from top position. Mafra had no answer, bucking and rolling but never able to get back to his feet. After punishing his opponent with punches and elbows from the top in the first round, Story changed approaches in the second, locking in an arm-triangle choke and scoring the tapout victory at the 2:12 mark of the round. "Going into all of my fights, I know the takedown is going to be there," Story said after the win. "I just need to do it. Being able to go in and do what I can do was the key to my win.dddddddddddd" Lightweight Joe Proctor (10-2) survived some early trouble against a hard-hitting Justin Salas (12-6) to come back and score a TKO win of his own in the second round. Salas was the early aggressor, firing heavy shots from range and drawing blood from his opponent in the early going. A stiff right hand later in the frame would create a gruesome-looking hematoma in Proctors left temple, but Proctor refused to go away. In the second, with Salas still firing heavy leather, Proctor scored with a left hand that dazed his foe. A second came behind it, and Proctor pounced to get the finish with a flurry of punches on the floor. Referee Gasper Oliver stopped the fight at the 3:27 mark of the second round, and while Salas protested the decision, he was obviously dazed as he complained. "I worked with a great boxing coach," Proctor said after the win. "Everybody knows I like to finish with my right hand, but I was able to finish with my left hook, which was great. Ive been working and working on my boxing and looking for the knockout and it finally came." Flyweights John Lineker (24-7) and Alptekin Ozkilic (9-3) combined for one of the most thrilling contests in recent memory, slugging it out over the course of three rounds before Lineker scored a TKO win with just nine seconds remaining in the contest. The three-round affair was punctuated by vicious striking exchanges from both fighters, who stood in the pocket and traded punch after punch. Lineker was always just a touch quicker, and his shots seemed to land with a little more power. The Brazilian targeted both the body and the head, and Ozkilic finally broke in the final round. A series of left hands found their mark, and Ozkilic went to the floor, where Lineker sealed the result with a series of punches on the floor. "He liked to play my game, and that let me go for the striking and the exchange," Lineker said after the win. "I found the right openings at the right time, and that enabled me to get the knockout." In the nights first main-card matchup, Brazilian striker Lucas Martins (15-1) handed featherweight Alex White (10-1) his first professional loss with a thrilling third-round TKO. While White moved forward with big shots on the feet throughout the fight, Martins was more efficient with his counters, using pinpoint punches to pick apart his foe. In the third, a right hand scored on the button, sending White to the floor, and Martins pounced with thunderous hammerfists to seal the TKO at the 2:08 mark of the third round. "He was a very tough fighter, and it was a hard fight for me," Martins said after the win. "I have heavy hands and a long reach. I knew once I was able to start hitting him, it was a matter of time before I won the fight."
