Sunil Narine snared career-best figures of 6/27 in 9.5 Overs on his return to West Indies colours as the hosts defeated South Africa by four wickets in the opening match of the Tri-Nation One-Day International series at the Guyana National Stadium on Friday June 03,2016


Sunil Narine's returns were not only a personal milestone but also the best-ever by any opponents in one-day cricket against South Africa.

Kieron Pollard, back in the good graces of the West Indies selectors after 20 months in the ODI wilderness following the shock abandonment of the tour of India in October of 2014, then lifted his team to the target with 11 balls to spare with a robust unbeaten 67 (67 Balls 4x2 and 6x6)


It was the first time in 15 years that the Caribbean side had defeated the South Africans in a one-dayer on home soil.

Scorecard
South Africa 188/10 in 46.5 Overs
West Indies 191/6 in 48.1 Overs
Match Result - West Indies won by 4 Wickets
MOM - Sunil Narine for his 6/27 in 9.5 Overs
