West Indies strike England, frolic into Twenty20 s - 2009/06/16 01:45
West Indies beat England by five wickets in a rain-reduced run-chase to reach the semi-finals at the expense of the hosts in this T20 World Cup.
Ramnaresh Sarwan (19 not out off 9 balls) and Shivnarine Chanderpaul (17 not out off 10 balls) saw their team home in an unbeaten partnership of 37 in 20 balls after England had reduced them to 45-5.
A second shower of the evening delayed the start of the West Indies innings as they looked to chase down an original target of 162.
West Indies thus move on to the semi-finals but must wait for the result of South Africa's match against India to decide their final position in Group E.
