JAMAICANS Chris Gayle and Marlon Samuels starred yesterday as the West Indies beat New Zealand by 55 runs at Sabina Park to take a 2-0 lead in the five-match One Day International cricket series.

Gayle (left) continued his triumphant return to the regional side by logging his 20th One-Day International century to break legendary Brian Lara’s record tally of 19 for the most centuries by a West Indian in One Day cricket.

Gayle smashed a typically stroke-filled 125, laced with eight fours and nine sixes off 107 balls, while Samuels fashioned an unbeaten 101, adorned with seven fours and a six off 103 balls as the Windies piled up 315 for five and then dismissed New Zealand for 260.
