| West Indies opener Johnson Charles hits a six over the offside while India's wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik looks on during the Celkon Tri-Nation one-day international cricket match at Sabina Park yesterday |
Opener Johnson Charles and fast bowler Kemar Roach were the stars of the show yesterday for the West Indies, who recorded a tense one-wicket win over India in the second match of the Celkon Mobile Tri-Nation one-day international series at Sabina Park.
The 24-year-old Charles made a typical boundary-studded 97, while Roach, who was celebrating his birthday, held his nerve in the final overs to help the West Indies reach their victory target of 230 for nine in 47.4 overs. India had earlier made 229 for seven off 50 overs.
The victory, which was witnessed by a decent-sized crowd, was the West Indies' second in as many matches and has now put them firmly on top of the series standings with nine points.
They gained a bonus point last Friday over Sri Lanka after winning by six wickets inside 40 overs.
India, in the meantime, who will play Sri Lanka tomorrow at the same venue, beginning at 9:30 a.m., are also without a point. Read More...
