Australia wins a thriller scoreboard

BASSETERRE (St. Kitts): Shane Watson kept his nerve, and the seventh-wicket pair of Denesh Ramdin and Darren Sammy failed to carry the West Indies over the threshold, as Australia completed a thrilling one-run victory in the fourth One-Day International cricket match on Friday.

Australia had set West Indies 283 for victory from 50 overs, and successfully defended the target score, when Watson — with the home team needing eight runs from the last over — conceded six runs from the final six balls. The victory handed Australia a 4-0 lead in the five-match series. — Agencies
