Reuters: Kieron Pollard blasted 102 from just 70 deliveries to lead West Indies to an emphatic win over Australia in their fourth one-day international in St Lucia on Friday.
Victory meant the hosts went 2-1 up in the series with one match left to play.
Pollard destroyed Australia’s bowling attack to rescue his team from an early batting slump and post a formidable total of 294 for seven.
The Australians, who won the toss but surprisingly elected to give the home side first use of a perfect batting pitch, made 252 in reply to lose by 42 runs as West Indies polished them off in the 47th over.
