DHAKA – Twenty20 skipper Carlos Brathwaite has praised the influence of interim West Indies head coach Floyd Reifer in the Caribbean’s capture of the T20 series against Bangladesh.

The Windies produced a strong all-round performance in Saturday’s final match at the Shere Bangla National Stadium, to come away with an emphatic 50-run victory and clinch the series 2-1.

Brathwaite revealed that Reifer had taken up the position ahead of the series and his encouragement to the squad had had a galvanising effect.

“Floyd has been tremendous for us since he came on. [He’s brought] a lot of positivity,” Brathwaite said following the win. (CMC)
