West Indies masters swept aside England masters for the third consecutive night by 13 runs on the Duckworth-Lewis Method in the final match of the Cricket Legends of Barbados Challenge Masters Twenty/20 championship at Kensington Oval on last night. When the rains came just after 9 p.m West Indies were rifling along at 43 for one in 5.3 overs chasing 127 for victory from 20 overs. After opener Philo Wallace failed for the third night, brilliantly caught by Ramprakash one-handed high to his right at point off Alex Tudor for five, fellow opener Rawl Lewis went ballistic. Lewis counter-attacked to hoist seamer Glen Chapple for two consecutive sixes in the third over, while Dean Headley was struck for two boundaries in the fifth. When the rains came Lewis was undefeated on 32 from 22 deliveries with 2 sixes and four fours and his silent partner Floyd Reifer on five. Earlier England 126 for seven from 20 overs was their best score of the championship after scores of 111 in the first and an under-par 63 in the second.
