Rain stopped the play, but West Indies was not near the target as per the D/L method. At the end of the 27th over, rain stopped play and WI were 58 for 6 and the target was revised to 204 in 41 overs. WI needed 146 in 14 overs. Loss of wickets early part of the innings made WI suffer at the end. If they had retained the wickets in tact, the target would have been easier.
