Late on Tuesday, the Jamaican members of the triumphant West Indies men’s team returned to the island to a hero’s welcome.

And yesterday it was the turn of Stafanie Taylor, the women’s captain, who was greeted like a queen as she arrived at the Norman Manley International Airport.

The 24-year-old all-rounder, the lone Jamaican in the West Indies squad, was hosted by team sponsor Digicel inside the Pineapple Lounge.

Petals were laid at her feet as she walked before she was seated on a chair akin to a throne for royalty.

The West Indies Women’s team beat favourites Australia by eight wickets with three balls to spare in the World Twenty20 (T20) final in Kolkata, India, on Sunday.
