The West Indies chase was far from smooth. They stumbled early, losing wickets at regular intervals.

The match went down to the wire, with the West Indies needing just one run to win in the final stages. Despite losing wickets throughout the chase, they managed to reach the target of 105 runs in 18.3 overs, securing a dramatic victory. The tense final moments saw several boundaries and key dismissals, leaving the crowd on the edge of their seats until the very end. The win underscores the competitiveness of the match and the resilience of the West Indies team.
