West Indies vs New Zealand, 5th ODI at Kingstown, Jun 16 2002 - Match Result

Chanderpaul comes back on to the field in a pressure situation having spent some time at hospital nursing an injury inflicted by Bond earlier in the innings, and pulls off a stunner

New Zealand commit hara-kiri for the umpteenth time in the last small handful of seasons, failing to defend another big score successfully, and losing from the final ball to another left-handed nemesis ... Shivnarine Kluserrr...Chanderpaul the hero this

the West Indies win for the 10th time on the trot at Kingstown, the 11th time in 12 matches there, and the New Zealanders lose their second match on the trot at Arnos Vale, both in the series decider after posting more than decent totals batting first

this also represents the West Indies' 2nd highest total ever batting 2nd (highest: 299 v Australia at Melbourne in 2000/01), and their highest effort successfully chasing (previous best: 287/5 v Australia at Georgetown in 1994/95)

it is also New Zealand's highest score batting first in an ODI where they didn't go on and win the match (previously: 287/6 v South Africa at Kimberly in 2000/01)

that concludes CricInfo.com's coverage of the West Indies v New Zealand One-Day International Series, which started off pretty ordinarily, but we did have two exciting finishes in the final two matches to whet the appetite

please join us for the start of the first Test at Kensington Oval at Bridgetown in Barbados, on Friday 21 June, starting at 10:05am local time (1405 GMT, 2:05am NZT)

49.6

Tuffey to Chanderpaul, FOUR runs

and Chanderpaul has done it! comes forward, whips it away through midwicket, over the packed infield, four fours in a row to win the match in amazing style, and the West Indies win by 4 wickets, and take the series 3-1

the West Indies have won the series, though the scores are level, one ball remaining in the match

the crowd rush on to the field, but have to be hauled back off, the match isn't over yet

Chanderpaul does it again! down the leg side, swings it away down to the fine leg boundary, Tuffey loses the plot

that could be crucial in itself, 5 off 2 balls needed

49.4

Tuffey to Chanderpaul, FOUR runs

Chanderpaul is doing it for the West Indies! down the track, strikes it high over mid off, close to the boundary, umpire Doctrove signals a six, but the New Zealanders don't like it, TV replay called for, and is changed to a four

awful delivery considering fine leg was inside the circle

SE Bond2/41 (10)

Bond bowls his final two overs wondefully well, conceding just 5 runs (and 3 byes), dismissing Sarwan and Ryan Hinds

and Fleming comes up with a big call, bringing back Daryl Tuffey to bowl the final over, having had a nightmarish series with the ball up until this point - time for redemption?
