Windies romp

ST GEORGE’S – Opener Johnson Charles struck his second consecutive One-Day International (ODI) hundred while Darren Bravo notched his first ever, as West Indies brushed aside a ragged Zimbabwe by 156 runs yesterday.
Charles top scored with a pugnacious 130 and was joined by the elegant Bravo who reached three figures off the last ball of the innings to finish with exactly 100 not out at the National Stadium, helping the West Indies to plunder 337 for four from their 50 overs – their fourth highest ODI total.
Opener Kieran Powell weighed in with a stroke-filled 79 as West Indies prospered in fabulous conditions after they were sent in.
Fast bowler Chris Mpofu was Zimbabwe’s best bowler with two wickets but his ten overs cost 83 runs.
In reply, Zimbabwe were undone by off-spinner Sunil Narine who claimed three for 28 from his ten overs, and slumped to 181 for nine from their 50 overs. (CMC)
