India eye second series win

India will be aiming to notch up their second ODI series triumph in the Caribbean when they take on the West Indies in the fourth and final one-dayer Sunday.

The last time India won an ODI series in West Indies was 2002 when Sourav Ganguly led them to a 2-1 triumph in a five-match series. For the Indians, a win will help bury the demons of their World Twenty20.

Brief scores: West Indies 185/7 in 27 overs (R Sarwan 62; Nehra 3/21, Harbhajan 2/35) vs India 159/4 in 21.5 overs (D Karthik 47, G Gambhir 44, M S Dhoni 46 not out; Bravo 1/27, Bernard 1/21, Benn 1/31).
