This is something I want to encourage everyone to do whether involved in sport or notโ โI spend long hours sweating and Dasani helps me to replenish what Iโve lost. I am pleased to be a part of this wonderful brand and no doubt Dasani will assist me in becoming the best I can be on the cricket fieldโ In the last Test series against England, Jason scored a record-breaking 202 not out to become the second batsman to score a Test double hundred in the second innings of a test batting at number seven or lower, and the first West Indian player to score a double century batting at number 8 or lower. So dominant was his performance, West Indies won the Test match and went on to win the Series 2 -1.
