Tough to know how this guy @TridentSportsX must feel right now. Mixed feelings he said. What a great effort by him to almost clinch one of the great comebacks. Well played Carlos. pic.twitter.com/HbeZx6OkoI

The finish was made even more memorable with Ian Bishop calling it on the live broadcast, bringing back memories of ‘Carlos Brathwaite! Remember The Name.’ from the 2016 World T20 final.
Wow! Remember the name! Not quite crossing the line but an unbelievable innings from Carlos Brathwaite #WIvNZ

Man! I loved Ian Bishop’s commentary when Carlos Brathwaite was batting. His voice takes the thrill to a different level. #WIvNZ

Gotta love cricket. Well done to our mates across the ditch New Zealand. We’ve a great rivalry however deep down I do like seeing our friends from NZ do well.
WI, we all love how you play. Carlos- one of my favourite modern day cricketers. Humble, respectful- a fine player.— Jason Gillespie (@dizzy259) June 22, 2019
Hopefully, there are better days and weeks coming up at the World Cup.
What a match again! What a day it’s been in #CWC19. First Afghanistan and now West Indies. Brilliant effort by Windies but hard luck. Carlos #WIvNZ
