PORT OF SPAIN, CANA - PAKISTAN, inspired by Mushtaq Ahmed's tantalising leg-spin bowling, beat West Indies by four wickets in a tense low-scoring game to win the first-ever triangular Cable and Wireless one-day international cricket series in the Caribbean at Queen's Park Oval here yesterday.

Set a modest victory target of 115 runs, Pakistan, after routing the West Indies for a meagre 114 in 33.2 overs with leg-spinner Mushtaq Ahmed taking four for 22, paced themselves to 116 for six in 45.1 overs.

PORT OF SPAIN, CANA - Despite being beaten by Pakistan 2-1 in the first-ever triangular Cable and Wireless one-day international cricket series in the Caribbean, West Indies' manager Ricky Skerritt and team captain Jimmy Adams are heartened by the regional team's improvement.

"Inspite of an unfortunate day at the office today (Sunday), with our batting, the team is getting better. We've seen signs that this team is going to continue to grow and continue to improve," Skerritt said after Pakistan defeated the West Indies by four wickets in a low-scoring third final at Queen's Park Oval.

Feanny posted MENTOR to win the race in 1997, MIRACLE CURE in 1998 and FLIGHT OF FANCY last year. With PROUDEST NATIVE nicely off at the weights with 51.0kg, Feanny could well continue his dominance in this particular race.
