India Ma(nnava)de
three changes to their playing eleven – Amay Khurasiya, Laxmi Ratan Shukla and Prasad
made way for Sachin Tendulkar (who was leading the team), Anil Kumble and
Venkatesh Prasad.
The West Indies made a couple of changes to their playing eleven – Nixon McLean and Wavell Hinds made way for Sherwin Campbell and Courtney Walsh. On winning the toss, Tendulkar chose to bat.
Sadagoppan Ramesh, whose 23-ball innings included three boundaries, scored 15. Seven overs into the match, he was caught by Nehemiah Perry. Reon King broke the 42-run stand. Tendulkar, whose 65-ball innings included half-a-dozen boundaries, scored 40. Ninety-three balls later, he was caught by Ridley Jacobs. Walsh broke the 60-run partnership.
Rahul Dravid, whose 58-ball innings included four boundaries, scored 29. Ten balls later, he was caught by Campbell. King broke the three-run stand. Vinod Kambli, who faced five balls, scored a run. Thirteen balls later, he was caught by Jacobs. King broke the six-run stand.
Nikhil Chopra, who faced 25 balls, scored nine. Forty-four balls later, he was caught by Mervyn Dillon, who broke the 26-run stand. The sixth-wicket pair put on a dozen. Sourav Ganguly, whose 44-ball innings included a six, scored 23. Twenty-eight balls later, Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Jacobs ran him out.
Robin Singh, who faced 16 balls, scored eight. He was unbeaten. The West Indies conceded 24 extras. India scored 149 for the loss of six wickets off 38.2 overs. Perry, who bowled 4.2 wicketless overs, conceded 19. Adams and Bryan bowled five wicketless overs apiece. While the former conceded 27, the latter conceded a dozen.
Walsh bowled seven overs, including a maiden. He conceded 21, picking up a wicket. Dillon bowled nine overs, conceding 38. He picked up a wicket. King bowled eight overs, including a maiden. He conceded 25, picking up three scalps.
The match ended without a result, because rain stopped play at about 12:30pm. It was abandoned at 3:50pm, when the umpires decided that the outfield would not be in a satisfactory enough condition for a 4:05pm start.
The West Indies would have had a target of 140 off 25 overs.
