West Indies threw away a promising position after being bowled out for 216 by New Zealand in their NatWest Series one-day international at Sophia Gardens here Saturday.West Indies, who were well-placed at 180 for three in the 37th over, lost their last seven wickets for 36 runs in 60 balls. Experienced all-rounder Chris Cairns (three for 29) and series debutant Ian Butler (three for 41) led the attack after half centuries from captain Brian Lara (58) and Ramnaresh Sarwan (54) threatened to take the West Indies to a big score. New Zealand captain Stephen Fleming's decision to field first after winning the toss was unsurprising given all the completed matches in the series so far had been won by the team batting second.
