New Delhi It will be a full house at the Wankhede Stadium when India take on the West Indies in the second semifinal of the ICC World T20 tomorrow Being hosts MS Dhoni amp Co are expected to be backed by some strong home support but there will also be fans who enjoy Chris Gayle in action or the Windies Champion dance inspired by Dwayne Bravos new music album every time they take a wicketWest Indies Dwayne Bravo bowls against England at the Wankhede Stadium earlier this month PicAFPIn an interview with midday Bravo who has claimed 10 wickets in the ongoing tournament so far including figures of 421 in the second warmup tie vs Australia in Kolkata says his boys are determined to get their hands on the World T20 title again this time in front of their favourite fans However he says it would be futile to think that winning this tournament will change the way the game is governed back homeExceptsQ The last time West Indies won the World T20 you guys danced to Gangnam Style This time the Champion track from new album seems to be the new flavour rightA Absolutely Were all prepared Champion has been well received and loved by fans all over the world When Im fielding at the boundary line I hear and see fans singing and dancing to the tunes of Champion I hope to join them all in doing it at the finalQ The track features the names of some of your teammates What was the idea behind thatA They are all champions in their own right They have all done great things so it was only right to mention my past and present teammatesQ Is there extra motivation to win the World T20 as it could possibly be the last ICC tournament for many of the senior players in the squadA I think whenever we play we play with the same determination to win each time but the fact that this could be the last for many people is a factor surely It is also special that possibly the last ICC tournament for some players is in India because many of us play here during Indian Premier League and Ive always said that the best fans are Indian fans So if it is the last World Cup it really is the best place to playQ Why do you think fans have a special connect with West IndiesA Our fans are our main motivators so we really try to put on a show when we go out there and do what we love on the field When we are happy they celebrate with us and when we are disappointed they feel it too because we feel it for themQ Although you were busy promoting your album before the World T20 you havent let that affect your performance on the field How did you manage thatA Im lucky enough to explore another passion of mine mdash music mdash but cricket is where my heart is and my focus is always there I work on my skills in the nets and challenge myself by bowling to Darren Sammy and Andre Russell to prepare for games I always make sure my cricket is where it should be and everything else comes after that If one has to sit for an exam one would study and prepare as much as one possibly could Cricket and music are no different to meQ If you win this tournament will it be a message to your administrators to try and change the way cricket is run back homeA Well I dont think a win would change the way cricket is administrated back home so there will be no improvement But it will make a difference to the fans and to the region We have no real support from the West Indies board but we do have the support of our fans and we play for them so a victory would be for them We are the third best team in the world and we intend to be No 1
