BASSETERRE (ST KITTS & NEVIS): Marlon Samuels produced his best batting effort in One-Day Internationals against Australia to lead the West Indies to a six-wicket victory in the fifth match of the Tri-Nation series at Warner Park in St Kitts on Monday. Set a challenging target after Usman Khawaja’s 98 and supporting half-centuries from skipper Steve Smith (74) and George Bailey (55) lifted the visitors to 265 for seven batting first, the enigmatic Samuels stroked 92 to ensure that the target was reached with 20 deliveries to spare. Brief Scores: England 416 & 233/7d drew with Sri Lanka 288 & 78/1 (M Karunaratne 37*, B Mendis 17; J Anderson 1/27)
