Sarwan Power West Indies Stun England in T20 By 6-wkts

Port-of-Spain: An inspired performance by Ramnaresh Sarwan steered the West Indies to a comfortable six-wicket victory over England in their one-off Twenty20 match at the Queen's Park Oval on Sunday.

Sarwan helped run out two England players and then hit a fine 59 to spur the West Indies to 123-4 off 18 overs, finishing with 12 balls remaining, in reply to the visitors' modest 121 all out off 19.1 overs.

England were bowled out for 121 in 19.1 overs, with Sulieman Benn once again picking up three wickets in an exemplary spell, before Ramnaresh Sarwan guided their run-chase in front of a euphoric crowd with 59 from 46 balls.

Opener wicket keeper Steve Davies, on his international debut, top-scored for England with 27. But Sulieman Benn took 3-24 and a total of three run outs caused England's innings to stutter.

Lendl Simmons contributed a level-headed 23 not out while Kieron Pollard (4 not out) ended the match with a boundary.

Brief Score: West Indies 123 for 4 (Sarwan 59) beat England 121 (Benn 3-24) by six wickets.
