1967/68: West Indies 0 England 1 (five-match series)

-

This series went England’s way thanks mainly to a seven-wicket win in the fourth Test in Trinidad.

England were left to score 215 in two-and-three quarter hours following a sporting declaratio­n by Windies captain Garry Sobers. But England got the runs just in time. There was one more twist to come in the fifth Test, No 11 Jeff Jones survived the last over to secure a draw that sealed the series win.
