West Indies v England, 1st Test, Bridgetown (4 days), December
1934:

The last time a touring team beat the West Indies in Barbados be-
fore Eng beat WI there in the fourth Test 8-13 Apr 94:

Wyatt won the toss and put West Indies in  on  a  sticky  wicket.
West  Indies  were  all out for 102, whereupon England batted and
declared at 81-7, Wyatt's idea being to get WI in again  on   the
bad   pitch.   Hoping  that  the  conditions would improve, Grant
opened the innings with his bowlers, but when Headley came in  at
number seven and was out for a duck, he too declared at 51-6.  It
was now, because of stoppages for weather, just after tea on  the
third  day, leaving England over a day to make 73 to win!  Wyatt,
like Grant, reversed the batting order: Hammond came  in  at  six
with   the  score  at 29-4;  when Wyatt, batting at number eight,
joined him, the score was 48-6.  These two, however, dug in,  and
eventually  saw England to victory by four wickets.  What a nail-
biter.  Hammond described his two innings of 43 and  29*  as  the
hardest he'd ever played.
