Source-derived summary

The DMC Cup was a three match One Day International cricket series which took place between 11 and 14 September 1999. The tournament was held in Canada, and involved India and the West Indies. The tournament was won by India, who won the series 2–1. The West Indies then went on to compete in the 1999 DCM Trophy days later against Pakistan. The tournament was a makeshift arrangement to fill in for the Sahara Cup 1999 which did not take place as India refused to play Pakistan due to political reasons.
