The fifth match of the Wills Trophy of 1991 saw the capitulation of West Indian batting order to the guiles and tricks of Tendulkar, the bowler. India won the toss and asked West Indies to bat first. Kapil Dev helped India upfront by snapping Phillip Simmons for 14. From there on it was all the Tendulkar show. He caught Clayton Lambert in front of the wicket to have him LBW and followed it up with the wicket of Captain Richie Richardson who was caught by Mohammad Azharuddin for a score of 16.

Gus Logie and wicket-keeper Jeff Dujon were caught behind to complete the four-wicket haul. West Indies collapsed to 145 with Tendulkar picking four scalps while Dev and Manoj Prabhakar picked up two wickets each.

Sidhu (44) and Sanjay Manjrekar (43) batted with great resolve and successfully countered all the efforts of the West Indian pacers. After the departure of the duo, Tendulkar was in action again as he combined with Azharuddin to take India over the finishing line.
