ST. GEORGE’S, Grenada: Adil Rashid snared four wickets in five balls as England resisted a determined West Indies effort to claim a 29-run victory in a high-scoring fourth One-day International at the National Stadium in Grenada on Wednesday.Responding to the tourists’ mammoth total of 418 for six, the home side were set on course by a rampaging 162 off 97 balls by veteran opener Chris Gayle. They remained in the hunt until the 48th over when leg-spinner Rashid broke an 88-run seventh-wicket partnership between Carlos Brathwaite and Ashley Nurse.He then scythed through the tail — taking the last three wickets in the next four balls — to finish with figures of five for 85 off his allotted ten overs. After England were put into bat, Jos Buttler led the way with a rampaging innings of 150 off just 77 balls with 12 sixes and 13 fours while his captain, Eoin Morgan, made 103 off 88 deliveries with six sixes and eight fours.Gayle’s effort in response included 14 sixes and 11 fours.Supported by 61 from Darren Bravo in a 176-run third-wicket partnership, Gayle looked in the mood to take the home side to a sensational victory until he was bowled heaving at Ben Stokes in the 35th over.Gayle rethinking retirementAg AFPST. GEORGE’S, Grenada: Chris Gayle says he is reconsidering his decision to retire after this year´s World Cup after the West Indies´ opener´s record-breaking feats in the ongoing ODI against England.“I´ve been playing a lot of T20 cricket, so it´s always going to be a difficult coming back into 50-over cricket. But eventually the body gets accustomed to the 50-over format,” he told icc-cricket.com.“Hopefully, the body can change in the next couple of months and we can see what happens. What´s the matter with the body? I´m nearly 40. But could I un-retire? We´ll see. We´ll take it slowly.”West Indies won tossEnglandJ Bairstow b Thomas 56A Hales c Hetmyer b Nurse 82J Root c Hope b Thomas 5*E Morgan c Holder b Cottrell 103†J Buttler b Brathwaite 150B Stokes c Hetmyer b Brathwaite 11M Ali not out 0Extras (b1, lb1, nb2, w7) 11Total (6 wickets, 50 overs) 418Did not bat: C Woakes, A Rashid, L Plunkett, M WoodFall: 1-100, 2-120, 3-165, 4-369, 5-417, 6-418Bowling: Cottrell 9-0-64-1, Holder 7-0-88-0, Nurse 10-0-68-1, Bishoo 4-0-43-0, Brathwaite 10-0-69-2, Thomas 10-0-84-2West IndiesC Gayle b Stokes 162J Campbell c Root b Wood 15†S Hope c Buttler b Wood 5D Bravo c Stokes b Wood 61S Hetmyer c Hales b Wood 6*J Holder st Buttler b Rashid 29C Brathwaite c Morgan b Rashid 50A Nurse c Plunkett b Rashid 43D Bishoo c Stokes b Rashid 0S Cottrell not out 0O Thomas st Buttler b Rashid 0Extras (lb5, w12, nb1) 18Total (all out, 48 overs) 389Fall: 1-24, 2-44, 3-220, 4-226, 5-295, 6-301, 7-389, 8-389, 9-389, 10-389Bowling: Woakes 10-0-91-0, Wood 10-0-60-4, Plunkett 8-0-40-0, Stokes 8-0-77-1, Rashid 10-0-85-5, Ali 2-0-31-0Result: England won by 29 runsMan of the Match: Joss Buttler (England)Umpires: Gregory Brathwaite (West Indies), Bruce Oxenford (Australia).
