Gibson says more success could be in store for West Indies

"Clive Lloyd led to wins in two World Cups and to the final of the third... Great feats. Then for the suffering that has gone on since then and for the last 20 years, to be able to come and lift the trophy, to stay the course, and to ride out the tough times, it is amazing.

"It shows that if all the talent in the region sticks together, there is more success like this round the corner," Gibson said.

His side might have just won a silverware in a world event after a gap of 33 years but for Gibson, Test cricket still remains the "pinnacle".

"Test cricket is still the pinnacle for me. There were lot of players who didn't get an opportunity in this T20 World Cup, who are looking forward to playing in the two Test matches in Bangladesh," he said.

West Indies have not been able to field their strongest side in the recent past because of various disputes.

And Gibson, who took over as the coach in 2010, attributed the success to the hard work put in by the players who all came together with the belief that they could win the tournament.

"It is an amazing thing when players come together for one cause. They all believed in the cause, they all believed that they could win the World Cup when we left.

"We had difficult periods (in the last two years), but we had signs of progress.

"If you look at the talent that we have, specially in this format, the power of Chris Gayle, Kieron Pollard and Marlon Samuels, the experience of Dwayne Bravo, the brilliance of Sunil Narine, the accuracy of Ravi Rampaul, the way the captain led, it was always the case of if we can harness all that talent and put it in the right direction."
