BRIDGETOWN, Barbados (AP):Mark Chapman made 80 and Mitchell Santner shepherded the tail to guide New Zealand to a tense one-wicket win over West Indies in the fourth One-Day International yesterday and to an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match series.Santner was dropped with three runs needed and one wicket in hand, and last man Jayden Lennox survived reviews for caught behind and lbw, before New Zealand edged past West Indies’ modest total of 188 with 35 balls remaining.The New Zealand captain hit the winning runs from the first ball of the 45th over to finish 34 not out and to spoil West Indies’ hopes of achieving a series-levelling victory to pay tribute to cricket great Sir Garfield Sobers.“It was pretty chaotic, especially the ending,” Santner said. “You try to chip off the total as much as you can. Even partnerships of 10 or 15 at that stage was going a long way.“It probably shouldn’t have got that close, but it was nice to get over the line.”TRIBUTE TO SOBERSWest Indies had expressed a fervent hope to honour Sir Garry in his home town of Bridgetown and at Kensington Oval, the stadium where he nurtured his career and made his name. Sobers died Friday at age 89; both teams wore black armbands and flags flew at half-mast in his memory.Two seats were left empty in the pavilion named for Sobers and a minute’s silence was observed before play began.Sobers is considered the greatest West Indies cricketer and likely the greatest all-rounder in the history of the game with more than 8,000 Test runs and 200 wickets.West Indies’ hopes of honouring him had an early setback when New Zealand won the toss and chose to bowl. Teams bowling first have won all four matches in the series to date.DIFFICULT CONDITIONSConditions were difficult and West Indies slipped to 58-3 and 81-6 before the innings was revived by a partnership of 81 for the seventh wicket between Amir Jangoo and Gudakesh Motie.Jangoo scored 51, his half-century coming from 71 balls, as West Indies ground their way towards a modest total. Motie made 41.Young pacer Matthew Fisher took 3-40 in eight overs, his first wickets for New Zealand in ODIs. His first wicket was that of West Indies captain Shai Hope (2), who fell to the best ball of the day, a cross-seamer which jagged back sharply from outside off.Despite a bad start to their chase – losing two wickets with only six runs on the board – New Zealand were heading towards a comfortable win after Chapman put on 65 for the fifth wicket with Michael Bracewell. Chapman’s dismissal left New Zealand at 142-5, needing only 47 runs to win with almost 25 overs in hand.TENSE FINISHSpinner Motie and pacer Alzarri Joseph epitomised West Indies’ desire not to give the game away without a fight, bowling their team to the brink of victory. Motie took 5-47 and Joseph 1-23, in 10 overs each, putting heavy pressure on New Zealand through the closing overs.Bracewell was out for 32 to Motie’s first ball after a short rain break, then Nathan Smith (8), Jacob Duffy (1) and Fisher (1) all came and went quickly.New Zealand needed eight runs when Lennox came to the wicket at No. 11. Santner took New Zealand within one run of victory but left Lennox to face a full over from Vitel Lawes which yielded two confident appeals, both rejected under review.Lennox survived and Santner finished the match from the first ball of the next over.“It hasn’t really sunk in yet, but it’s been a really good cricket game for the onlookers,” Hope said. “If you watch a game like this as a neutral, you’re going to be really happy to see play like this.“It was one that could have gone to either side. It was a good game of cricket and I must commend our guys for the fight they showed at the back end.”The final match of the series will be played at Bridgetown tomorrow.
