WI vs ZIM, 4th ODI, Bulawayo: West Indies clinch series (3:1)

West Indies won the fourth one-day international against Zimbabwe by five wickets here on Friday to take an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match series.
Five swift wickets from man-of-the-match Jerome Taylor restricted Zimbabwe to 232-9, a target reached by the injury-depleted visitors with five wickets and three overs to spare at the Queens Sports club. The West Indian cause was helped by a third-wicket batting partnership of 105 runs by Runako Morton (79) and Marlon Samuels (62). Samuels was playing in his 100th opne-day international.
Zimbabwe should have made a better showing with the bat but for a leisurely approach by their opening batsmen, whose combined efforts brought no fewer than 167 runs, but from a combined total of 235 balls. Vusimusi Sibanda and Hamilton Masakadza's total beat by six runs the previous highest first wicket partnership for Zimbabwe set by brothers Grant and Andy Flower in 1997.
Sibanda was finally run out 96, just short of his second ODI century and Masakadza hit 80. But they took 36 overs to achieve their tally, at only 4.8 runs per over, forcing the batsmen who followed to try and rack up the pace in a bid to reach a challenging total.
The final ODI is scheduled for here Sunday with the West Indies tour moving on next to South Africa.
