New Zealand WhiteWashed West Indies in bilateral Series played in Year 2000

West Indies were scheduled to play 5 One Day International Matches in New Zealand in 2000. It was a very interesting series as both these teams were playing some great cricket on that time. The 5th and final match of 5 One day international Series was played on AMI Stadium, Christchurch, New Zealand on 19th Jan, 2000.

New Zealand won the toss and opts to bat first, so this means West Indies will bowl first and will try to chase target what New Zealand sets for them in the later part of the game. This is how West indies team and 11 was looking like in this 5th One Day International: Brian Lara (c), Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Courtney Walsh, Jimmy Adams, Sherwin Campbell, Ridley Jacobs (wk), Franklyn Rose, Mervyn Dillon, Reon King, Nehemiah Perry, Ricardo Powell

And New Zealand team and 11 was looking like this in this 5th one Day international: Stephen Fleming (c), Nathan Astle, Chris Cairns, Craig McMillan, Daniel Vettori, Chris Harris, Dion Nash, Adam Parore (wk), Roger Twose, Craig Spearman, Shayne O’Connor.

New Zealand started aggressively and they were able to post total of 302 runs in 50 over’s at the loss of only 6 wickets and R Twose top scored with 97 runs in 90 balls with 11 4’s and 2 sixes at the strike rate of 108 runs in 100 balls and N Astle who made 85 runs in 109 balls with 8 4’s and 1 six and strike rate of 78 runs in 100 balls.

West Indies was required to chase 303 runs in 50 over’s to win this last One day international match.

For a change West Indies batted well in this innings and were on the way to win this last ODI but they lost their way in the last over’s and were eventually bowled out for 282 runs in 49.5 over’s and lost this game by 20 runs and S Campbell top scored with 71 runs in 87 balls with 2 4’s and 1 six.

R Twose was the Man of the match for his fine batting and NZ whitewashed West Indies with 5-0 win.
