AUS v WI, 2nd Test, Antigua: Sarwan, Chanderpaul lead West Indies to draw against Australia
03 June, 2008
Captain Ramnaresh Sarwan's 128 and Shivnarine Chanderpaul's 77 not out helped West Indies stave off Australia's winning bid and draw the second cricket test on the final day Tuesday.
After Australia declared its second innings at 244 for six overnight, West Indies' victory target of 372 never looked likely and the team needed to bat through the entire fifth day to prevent the visitors from winning the three-test series at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.
The fightback draw was achieved.
Sarwan and Chanderpaul combined in a 143-run stand for the fourth wicket before Sarwan's 11th test century ended on 128 off 241 balls, and Chanderpaul guided the innings to stumps with his 47th half century.
Australia scored 479 for seven declared and 244 for six declared, and West Indies 352 and 266 for five.
Australia leads the series 1-0.
The third test starts at Bridgetown, Barbados on June 12.
