India Vs West Indies: Wills Trophy -- Operation  Desert  Spin  --
Sharjah: 20 Oct 91
  Manoj Prabhakar, with his  gentle  medium  pace,  and  the  leg
spinner,  Anil Kumble, combined to bowl India to a 19-run victory
over the West Indies here on Saturday.  Prabhakar took his second
four-wicket  haul  in  two days and Kumble, brought in to exploit
West Indies' known weakness against spin, justified his inclusion
with four for 50.
  Chasing India's 240  for  6  in  50  overs,  West  Indies  were
dismissed for 221 with seven balls left.  A 128-run stand for the
second wicket between Sidhu (98)  and  Manjrekar  (56)  laid  the
foundations of the useful Indian total.
  Although Lambert, who made 66, and Lara, with 45 off 44  balls,
batted well for the West Indies, little came from the middle ord-
er and the last five wickets fell for 50 runs.   Prabhakar  swept
through the tail to finish with four for 30.
