The 'World Boss' of cricket has reversed her decision of retirement for the West Indies. She has decided to take the field again. We are talking about Deandra Dottin, whose return from retirement can be a big boost for West Indies in the upcoming Women's T20 World Cup. Deandra Dottin is known by the nickname 'World Boss' in women's cricket. Dottin retired from international cricket 2 years ago. But, Cricket West Indies has now confirmed that she is going to make a comeback.

Team India won the men's T20 World Cup, which was played in the West Indies. But, West Indies is now eyeing to win the women's T20 World Cup to be played in Bangladesh this year. 33-year-old Dottin's return from retirement is an important step in that direction.

Fastest century in T20I in 38 balls

With the return of Deandra Dottin, the strength of West Indies will now be seen increasing. And, the main reason for this is her aggressive style. On the basis of this aggression, the century that Deandra Dottin scored in the Women's T20 World Cup played in 2010 is still the fastest century scored by any female batsman in this format of cricket.

Deandra Dottin then scored a century in just 38 balls against South African women players, which included 9 sixes and 5 fours. Even today, 14 years later, Dottin's record of the fastest century in T20I remains intact. After that, many women scored centuries but they could not break Dottin's record.

Expressed his desire to return by writing a letter to CWI

Deandra Dottin, who scored 5 centuries in international cricket, played her last match against Team India in August 2022 and after that suddenly announced her retirement. Now she has written a letter to Cricket West Indies and told that she wants to make a comeback. She wrote that representing West Indies has always been a matter of pride. I want to play for West Indies again in all formats with immediate effect. She wrote that she is confident that her experience and her ability will help in increasing the strength of the team.

Deandra Dottin is likely to join the West Indies team for the T20 World Cup from August 2024. However, before that she will be seen playing for Trinbago Knight Riders in the Women's Caribbean Premier League.
