Subject:      West Indies vs Australia (Brisbane, Australia, Jan 10)

   The West Indies beat Australia by seven runs with an over to spare
in a thrilling climax to the World Series Cup cricket one day
competition on Sunday.  The West Indies scored 197 for 9 off their 50
overs and dismissed Australia for 190 on the first ball of Carl
Hooper's final over.

   Boosted by an innings of 56 from Carl Hooper and a return-to-form
36 from veteran opener Desmond Haynes, the West Indies set Australia a
reasonable run rate of 3.94 runs per over for victory.  Medium-pace
bowler Paul Reiffel was the pick of the Australian bowlers, taking
3-33 from his 10 overs and taking the catches to dismiss Hooper and
Gus Logie.  The West Indies rested their test strike pace duo of
Curtly Ambrose and Ian Bishop and the front-line attack will be led by
Courtney Walsh, Patrick Patterson, Kenneth Benjamin and Anderson
Cummins.

   The victory puts the West Indies on 10 points, three clear of
Australia, who hold a four-point break over Pakistan.  Australia has
only to get a win from one of their remaining two games against
Pakistan in Melbourne on Tuesday and Sydney on Thursday to join the
West Indies in the best of three-match finals later this month.
