00:00History for the West Indies.
00:13Magnificent. Have some of that.
00:16Quentin McClark is a sensational cricketer.
00:19Brilliant. Spot on.
00:21Goal of the wigs!
00:23Remember the name!
00:26Magnificent from Steve Smith.
00:28He knows how to rack up hundreds.
00:31Sensational stuff from Aby de Villiers.
00:33He is an absolute genius, this man.
00:38Oh, here we go.
00:41Wow!
00:45He's got in first ball after the break!
00:49Numbler has another hundred.
00:53Yes, they certainly have.
00:58Welcome to the highlights from the first match of a 50-over tri-series between three sides with plenty of talent to entertain.
01:05Hosts of West Indies and South Africa started things off in Guyana.
01:10World Champions Australia start their campaign on Sunday.
01:14The teams play each other three times over the next few weeks in a league format, starting at Providence Stadium, moving to St Kitts and finishing in Barbados.
01:23The top two will contest the final at the Kensington Oval on Sunday the 26th of June.
01:29The toss was won by South Africa and Aby de Villiers decided to bat first.
01:34Here are the teams.
01:36South Africa batting.
01:38Rousseau at number three, Faf Duplassie as a broken finger and two front line spinners.
01:43The West Indies, Narine and Pollard returned from international absences.
01:48Narine joins Sylman Benn as the second spinner.
01:51Here's what happened in the South African innings.
01:58He's got a couple of slips, has Jerome?
02:01Oh, it's in the air, got a fingertip on that.
02:04Boundaries are reasonably long here in Guyana, but that, even though it was a bit of a tip of a finger, it's still gone for four.
02:13Yeah, first boundary, an interesting one.
02:16Sort of just held up maybe, checked on it.
02:22Yeah, just the bottom of the bat and a chance.
02:25Tough chance, double chance.
02:28Exactly.
02:29Now, that would have been quite interesting going on with the stumps.
02:31Because Hasan Mumman would have been well out of his ground.
02:36Nicely played.
02:39Lots of rain over the last couple of days here, but the outfield's still reasonably fast, which is nice to see.
02:44Good work from the ground staff to get that right.
02:49There we go.
02:50Had a dip at that one.
02:51Nicely balled.
02:52A bit of movement away from Jerome Taylor.
02:59That's beautiful from Amla.
03:01Beautiful shot through the covers for four.
03:03Superb stuff.
03:05That was the previous over we saw as well, that he hit.
03:08He got a three that time through the covers.
03:10Amla at his best.
03:13Just stand and deliver, and all timing.
03:16Lovely shot.
03:17De Quack this time.
03:18Straight down the ground.
03:19A little bit onside.
03:20He's going to bank a boundary.
03:21Yeah, good boundary.
03:22The second one.
03:23And just starting to move along now, South Africa.
03:24It's just the length there.
03:25And really inside of the bat as well.
03:26Not the full middle.
03:27Timing.
03:28Still managed to get it away for another boundary.
03:30And still managed to get it away for another boundary.
03:34It's a beautiful shot.
03:35That really is a terrific shot.
03:36On a track that's slow, but he's just slacked it away for four.
03:37It's a beautiful shot.
03:38That really is a terrific shot.
03:39On a track that's slow, but he's just slacked it away for four.
03:40The first real short one that was seen delivered.
03:41And was picked up so far.
03:42It's just the length there.
03:43And really inside of the bat as well.
03:44Not the full middle.
03:45The timing.
03:46And still managed to get it away for another boundary.
03:51It's a beautiful shot.
03:59That really is a terrific shot.
04:00On a track that's slow, but he's just slacked it away for four.
04:03The first real short one that was seen delivered.
04:06And was picked up so far.
04:09So early by De Kopp.
04:12He's batting out of his crease.
04:14Slow wicket.
04:15And he was all over that.
04:18And a few boundaries starting to come now.
04:23Inside edge, chopped.
04:29Good stuff from Jason Holder.
04:31It's a little bit unfair when that happens.
04:33He won that one, Jason Holder, in a sense.
04:38But he's still got the runs.
04:40And De Kopp was looking for the...
04:42He's going for the pull shot again.
04:44Got into position.
04:47And then decided against it.
04:50And so close.
04:53And then there's a batsman, Hazy.
04:58You know, just goes on the scorecard as a four.
05:00Down at fine leg.
05:01Could have been the outside edge.
05:03Off the thigh pad.
05:05Hired into the ground, that's going to scream away for a boundary.
05:12No chance for Jerome Taylor, who's been pretty tight so far, to stop that.
05:16He's had a couple hit back at him, but he's missed at the moment.
05:20Just got his length, the touch wrong.
05:23And we still see there, it's not full timing at the moment, but just managing to get enough
05:31of it and straight down the ground for a boundary.
05:33He's having a tough time at the moment, isn't he?
05:38Getting hit straight back at him.
05:44Beautiful stuff.
05:46Superb from De Kock.
05:48That's boundary number six for him.
05:50Nice way to sign off that.
05:51I have a ten from it.
05:52Seven gone, forty-one for none.
06:02Couple of runs.
06:08But that is the end of it.
06:15And this has been a good opening spell from Bradwick.
06:20He has bowled absolutely the correct length so far in the surface.
06:29Yeah, great fouling by Carlos.
06:31He's hit his lengths so well.
06:33Quintinacock looking to force something that probably wasn't there.
06:37And, you know, he's been given a price waiting down the ground.
06:40He probably wouldn't want to look at that when he gets to the dressing group.
06:45Yeah, so that's Quintinacock.
06:4630 of 34 balls.
06:47And South Africa, 52 for one.
06:49Losing their first wicket.
06:55He's a long way across, he's a long way across.
06:57He has to finger lose up.
06:58Just lost his balance.
07:00And his sense of awareness of off-stump Hashim Amla.
07:07Yeah, great delivery from Sun Hill around.
07:09That's exactly what his captain wanted from him.
07:11Make the breakthrough and double strike for the West Indies.
07:14So, great, great, great comeback for them after that start.
07:19He's pulled a lot of knuckle balls to Hashim Amla.
07:24That was a directly on to middle stump.
07:27Easy decision, I think, in terms of line anyway, for Joel Wilson.
07:31And he strikes his first wicket in international cricket.
07:40On return for Sunil Narain.
07:4220 to Amla, 52 for two.
07:48That's delicate.
07:49Nicely played.
07:51Very fine indeed.
07:52They're going to be able to maybe think about the third note.
07:55They settle for two.
07:56Little paddle, just the one.
08:06Maybe not one, just the two.
08:09In fact, they're thinking about three.
08:12Jerome Taylor it was.
08:13Let's have a look at Suleiman Ben.
08:15He won't be impressed with that.
08:26End of the over.
08:29100 on the board for two.
08:35Slow ball that time.
08:36Worked away.
08:37They'll be looking for two.
08:38A-B's quick.
08:39In fact, they're going to get a bonus.
08:41Certain one.
08:43So three it is.
08:44Should have only been two.
08:47A couple of stairs.
08:48One from Kyron to Jerome Taylor.
08:50There's one from Jason Holder, the skipper now.
08:53He's the way.
08:54They'll look for two.
08:55Do that quite comfortably.
08:56Orion the chaser.
08:57That's where they stay.
08:58Just a couple.
08:59Dropped it.
09:00Got a fingertip on one earlier today.
09:01That's the second one that has been put down.
09:02Tough catch, of course.
09:03But he'll be a little bit disappointed with that.
09:04He'll be a little bit disappointed with that.
09:05He'll be a little bit disappointed.
09:06Maybe.
09:07Jerome Taylor.
09:08That he didn't snaffle that.
09:09Yeah, he's had a few balls.
09:10He's back at him today, Jerome Taylor.
09:11Well, that's just reactionary.
09:12He's back at him today.
09:13Just a couple.
09:14Dropped it.
09:15Dropped it.
09:16Got a fingertip on one earlier today.
09:17That's the second one that has been put down.
09:19Tough catch, of course.
09:20But he'll be a little bit disappointed, maybe.
09:22Jerome Taylor that he didn't snaffle that.
09:26Yeah, he's had a few balls.
09:31He's back at him today, Jerome Taylor.
09:33Well, that's just reactionary.
09:36You know, sometimes they stick, sometimes they don't.
09:40You know, you need a little bit of luck here and didn't go Jerome's way.
09:45It's a bonus catch if he took it.
09:52He's got hold of that.
09:54And it'll go all the way.
09:57That's the first boundary since the seventh over, would you believe?
10:02And what a shot to bring it up.
10:05On the end of the over there.
10:08130 for two.
10:10But this shot, reverse sweep.
10:13Power.
10:17Finally get a boundary.
10:19That's going to be out.
10:20Finally held up to one, Jerome Taylor.
10:22Yes, he's got one.
10:23About his third time, he's had a chance.
10:24They've been rocketing past him.
10:25But this time, Davili is looking to drive.
10:27Forced the issue.
10:28And that's the sort of Wiccan.
10:29Good catch.
10:30Not sure whether he caught it or whether the ball went straight in his hand there.
10:31But a big wicket for the West Indies.
10:32Maybe Davili is the danger man.
10:33He's out for 31.
10:34And it's 130 for three.
10:35And that should be his 50.
10:36And he's.
10:37And it's.
10:38Oh, it's a good one.
10:39It's a good one.
10:40Oh, it's a good one.
10:41And so on.
10:42And so on.
10:43We've got two.
10:44And I've been rocketing past him.
10:45And this time Davili is looking to drive.
10:46Forced the issue.
10:47And that's the sort of Wiccan.
10:48Good catch.
10:49but a big wicket for the West Indies maybe the billy is the danger man is out
10:54the 31 it's 130 to 3 that should be is 50 and is 50 important runs to Riley
11:10Russell
11:12you'll be looking to get quite a few more I would think it's difficult conditions
11:22but he's in the set and that's when you got to capitalize tricky
11:33but Jonathan Carter the fielder Russell running good interference there and it
11:45seems to have gotten a bit of a knock
11:49it's gonna get through that's a boundary not many today so far but when they've
12:01come there have been some quality shots just easing onto this finds the middle of
12:11the bat
12:19that is gonna bring a couple as well
12:34that was a gift they'll easily get to here
12:49that's it
12:52there's the reason for the slip
12:57and just didn't know which way he was going
13:01you're always looking for that one beating the bat before and he's take the edge
13:08distance in an array and a very good innings of 61 comes to an end for Riley
13:15Russell
13:18wasn't quite sure what was happening in a good low catch from Carlos Brathwaite gives
13:24the rain his second wicket
13:31Riley Russell goes for a well-played 61 it's 164 for
13:45that's out
13:52got him on the back foot didn't know which way it was going
13:56and
13:57yeah he has to go without scoring let's have a look
14:02well the straight one dead and lie he got as well and he's now picking up wickets at ease
14:13big wicket for the ride
14:17this puts a question is in a pretty good position
14:24good feeling there by the big man
14:32good feeling once again there from the big man
14:53clever bowling excellent stuff
15:00yeah just a little bit of off spinner whoof
15:06it's a lot of purchase Jason got over there
15:09and that's that's why you feel South Africa really need to try and get that to
15:14that to that 250 mark because you feel that the pitch is going to slow down
15:17it's going to grip and scoring is going to become difficult so
15:21I'm sure that's what those two will be talking about out there
15:25the
15:32last ten over
15:35celebration for the fans here at Providence the important wicket of JP
15:40do be Jason holding us the scum
15:46good bowling from Jason just taking the pace of JP maybe looking to go a little bit too square
15:52on the surface and playing on
15:58okay a shot from JP do many indeed remonstrates with himself almost immediately
16:05Robbie you suggested cross batted shot not the best option in these conditions
16:10JP do many but he couldn't kick on 23 of 34 balls 172 for six South Africa
16:21yeah that's gone
16:23that's gone
16:24that's gone
16:25that's gone
16:26plumb in front
16:27Samil Ryan continues his wonderful work on the surface
16:31well he's dominant
16:34wickets galore for him in all forms of the game he's done and here off spinner turning in
16:42oh that's
16:46having a review at the moment but
16:49I'm not an umpire fish but that's here pretty much I think middle stuff
16:55he's just a class bowler
17:01yeah legal delivery as far as the front foot is concerned it has to to really
17:19miss the stumps altogether or at least be struck outside the line I don't think either of those happen
17:24struck one in front so
17:27really that should be there I think the review was made out of desperation
17:33struck in front of us though so it will be out
17:42batsmen consulted and because it was Morris the more talented of the batsmen remaining at the time they
17:52decided to review finger goes up 181 to 7
17:57and he goes straight through
18:01straight through Abbott's first ball of a new spell
18:05just falling apart for the first wicket barbecue
18:09there's a little look back at the wicket but straight and at the stunts and there's a ball up
18:15that's what you love to see
18:17Seema
18:19and it just gets him through almost done it for pace there in a way
18:23there's no reason look at the wicket break quite picks up his second
18:29and a big second wicket it is Abbott has gone for 5
18:33and now South Africa 181 for 8
18:44be a couple of runs
18:46for Fangisil
18:48for a moment thought this is a wave boundary but the height great catch by
18:52the
18:54the
18:55the
18:56the
18:57the
18:58the

19:14the
19:15the
19:16the
19:37the
19:40the
19:41Another slip in place and leg gully as well as bad every team run to hair
19:55foosball as you'll find comes back for two so three runs in total a wide
20:00signaled he was going for the quick strike one thing I'm just gonna get it
20:07on the stumps and but this is a previous wicket great catch
20:18all about the height there's the off spinner keeping low you just feel as he
20:27got in him two deliveries pick up his sixth wicket
20:37the six wickets for sooner the ride on return to West Indian colors
20:50they're running about on the grass back South Africa ball long for a hundred
20:55minutes he'd great display
21:01oh that's one quick motion it looked out but
21:09that's still out
21:12and six wickets six for 27 to here he didn't trouble the scorers
21:20so if we go all out for 188
21:24and at the top there you see good starts but no one really went over except for Rousseau 61
21:39off he's 83 but the rest and then the middle order all the way down just found it difficult against the line
21:46and in the end of just forty six point five overs all bold as have a get for 188
21:58the opening burst from Taylor and holder wasn't as good as they would have liked
22:01but Brathwaite and the rhymes intervention put a halt on the scoring rate and
22:09Ben no he didn't pick up a wicket supported Ben well but Narain six for 27 the star
22:15Brathwaite not to be all done two for 35 and the latest spells of Taylor and holder
22:19were much better good all-round effort in the end for the West Indies
22:29now that's what the West Indies need just 189 to win this off 50 overs at 3.78
22:42good
22:54good
22:55good
22:56good
22:57good
22:58good
23:00good
23:03good
23:05that's what's what's going on
23:07I don't know
23:08you
23:09I'm going to know
23:10my
23:11I don't know
23:12I couldn't end the cock not able to react fast enough
23:23it's got over the slip and that's the way that these guys will play Charles in
23:30particular
23:34well you know you take this chance at Johnson Charles this just an outside
23:40edge but looking to hit this somewhere over long on
23:49he's taking his chances and so far he's gotten away with it
24:00that's up the edge that's going to be for
24:04and we haven't had a run off the face of the bat yet
24:21just hung the bat out there Fletcher
24:23it was Johnson Charles
24:35the operator in the over
24:38it's an appeal that might have hit the boot or the pack first
24:42they've decided to have a look
24:48or have they
24:53not too sure if maybe the Villiers is too keen on it
24:57sure that the time is up and they've decided to forget it
25:10to forget it
25:19Roboto wanted it he wanted the review
25:24elected not to go for it
25:28that clearly hit the boot
25:29we get some for this
25:36end up with three but not a convincing stroke
25:43good arm but safely home for 222 without loss
26:04time it well enough to get it all bumping off
26:15oops
26:18there's an excellent recovery
26:20only a BD Villiers could recover so well
26:22this is the problem with hitting through the line on this pitch
26:32ball does slow up got a bit under it too much under it
26:36but just look at this knocks it back with the other hand and
26:40it's onto it in a flash
26:42always so aware of what's going on a BD Villiers
26:47great delivery back because he's a robot
27:00he's been impressive so far in the spell he is bold with good place good control
27:05he's firing those Yorkers
27:07and he's been showing some good energy for a bit of a list
27:11and again doesn't seem to have been an inside edge
27:21that looked full on to the ankle
27:24right in front of leg stump
27:27no sign of an inside edge
27:29yeah no inside edge there I think South Africa will be kicking themselves
27:35not reviewing that
27:36well he changed his mind and he's gonna get full
27:38was into the pool then was looking to pull out of it and get the boundary 32 without loss after nine overs
27:56well that's a little bit short little bit of a jab from Johnson Charles showing his Caribbean flair
28:08which we've come accustomed to from the West Indian batters
28:12good shot not an easy shot to play on the surface
28:17fabulous great ball in your printer here there's only a matter of time before he brought out that Google it
28:29and he has his customary celebration as always fabulous body
28:35and the challenges for his team is to catch up with him before he goes off
28:40but there he goes again never picked the Google he had no idea what was happening there
28:45Andre Fletcher undone by the wiles of Imran Tahir his 18th wicket in one day against the West Indies
28:56just his sixth match Fletcher gone for 11 is 37 for one
29:00as Tahir gets an outside edge nice and fine
29:05Abbott is the chaser this will be a bit of a tease
29:09Abbott wins
29:10a nice little outside edge
29:29it's just tiny amount of turn there for the leg spin
29:33Abott chasing again this time it will be two again
29:34Abott chasing again this time it will be two again
29:40got it away
29:41certainly has some shots which raise a few eyebrows
29:43Risky's the word premeditated might be another one
29:44one
29:59a
30:01.
30:05risky is the word premeditated might be another one the wrong and again beautiful stuff from
30:17every entire hair couple of wickets again the bats were not picking it missing it by some
30:23distance and it's the death rattle I'll be the death rattle during the week from PowerPoint
30:31how to play a googly that's not the way but love his celebrations gets him a lot of wickets
30:40he knows today's his day we've seen the rhyme with these six but he wants a piece of the action
30:52now look at Johnson Charles goes for 31 and the West Indies now 52 for two
31:00he's not he thought that was going down the track is turning a little bit is he going to send it
31:14upstairs he wants to see what his partner says bravo he's experienced no bravo says no let's not send
31:23upstairs there'll be a little bit of shake of the head there from Samuels there is did it turn enough to
31:33come back but I think it's very hard to review that one I think it might just turn enough
31:43seem like bravo was adamant it shouldn't go upstairs the umpire did give it out and I think that's why it
31:54wasn't sent up Samuels just one for him today and now the West Indies are 53 for three
32:03well that's a freebie
32:07that's been put away as it should have been
32:11a rare poor delivery easily dispatched
32:17fifth boundary to the West Indies and that's all they need to do just hold off there that's
32:28all they need one bound over four runs and over the stage is fine so there's no need for bravo to
32:33do anything silly in the next three balls of this over it's fine chases on for punky so
32:44they're going to come back for the third so that's good aggressive running as well so suddenly this
32:50over turns into a good one for the boys in the Caribbean
32:54finally the gap couple of runs
33:02almost got through him
33:19saved by the edge
33:25straight to short extra cover
33:31random goes the village takes the catch
33:36and JP do many has come on and take it another vital wicket
33:43for 1076 for four
33:51the week leaning back as he opened up himself to slice it through the offside and
33:56though there's a little bit of a juggle is anguish because it's a BD
34:00failures who stood between the shot and the boundary rope pressure leading to
34:06the Ramsans wicket for 1076 for four
34:13big hit
34:15for six of the match
34:19and that's the current quality love
34:22throughout the Caribbean throw the rule
34:28it's strong but the hand is always in the shot dragging it from offside
34:35you're almost tempted after looking at this shot
34:40you saw that could get someone who can spin the ball away
34:44and you think of that here even though Fungiso's bowling from the opposite end
34:50and you didn't really seem to put a lot of effort into it
35:05absolutely right it's a very controlled shot
35:09keeps the shape quite nicely and that really is the key of when he's striking the
35:14ball well
35:17has gone to decrease and change the complexion of the innings
35:44and the field is set very straight for Kyron Pollard because they know this is
35:48a strong area but the ground is too small and again it's a very controlled
35:54shot the full back face presented to the path of the ball
36:05excellent feeling
36:14we're all about the point
36:23runs floyd with the arrival of this man
36:27hundred comes up
36:31I was thinking of in run to here with the arrival of Paul would be a man to go to
36:37quite quickly they've gone as well for Morris and usually a lot of teams that
36:42go for peace against Pollard looking to use a short ball but it it's still a
36:46slightly slow pitch here at the National Stadium with a hundred coming up on the
36:51board
36:56it is interesting when someone like
36:59comes the crease how suddenly some lines and lengths can go a little bit of strain
37:04there's extra pressure on the bowlers that the attempt by Morris it's a fine leg
37:10and his old is four leg byers
37:19you certainly have to hold your nerve when bowling to Kieran Pollard you know
37:23he's got tremendous power to be able to to find the fence
37:30it's good work from JP do me
37:38overstepping
37:38it's good introduction
37:47the fact that the no balls are now free hits
37:50he's had a couple of issues throughout his career it's pretty close but I guess
37:55it's just quite simple you shouldn't be that close
37:57I know Alan Donner was extremely hot on that when he was the bowling coach as you
38:01would know Robbie the South African side
38:03Sean Langefield is now doing that job and that won't please him because a free
38:07hit to Kieran Pollard which can't be changed
38:14surely is the resulting in a boundary
38:17here we go
38:22club back
38:23hit it high
38:24is it going to go over the right time here is there
38:2712 to 6
38:29so that's a bit of a freebie I'm afraid from South Africa
38:32you cannot give that away to Kieran Pollard
38:37to the end of inevitability right there when Kieran Pollard is on strike and he has a free hit
38:47great shot
38:49just rocked back
38:51and just
38:53whacked it over wide long on
38:55it's gone for 6 by some distance there's no issues with this one
38:59driving down the ground again brings up the 50 stand between these two so that's really good work
39:06between Bravo and Pollard
39:08so 33 of us gone 126 for four it is
39:12scamping through for the seconds and safely home good running aggressive stuff from the West Indies
39:27beautiful shot
39:32beautiful shot
39:34see when he plays those sort of drives he looks so elegant that high backswing
39:40yeah beautiful backswing there by Darren Bravo
39:42reminiscent of brown Laura
39:44great shot
39:45full swing of the bet
39:46maximum power
39:47awesome
39:48over the top
39:49and should run away for four
39:56so five times the ball has reached to the boundary of a lot but that's the first time it's gone for a four all the others have been sixes
40:10he's picked out well I think it's been just a fantastic innings and as he walked in he just showed his intent he was positive took the spin on couple of big sixes
40:31he's gone again
40:32he's gone again
40:33has he got enough
40:34it's over
40:35his fifth sixth subunions
40:38for a moment he would have had his heart there thinking has he got enough
40:46I don't think he got this right in the middle of the bat either
40:52off the googly
40:55from over you stands there
40:59all right six easily
41:02yes given it
41:08and he's reviewed it straight away Darren Bravo
41:14I think he has to at the moment
41:17big review
41:19the front foot's going to be easy
41:26it's down the other end now
41:49there will be gone umpires call was out so in fact will be on past call and
41:57going on to hit middle stump no edge detected that's gone between the leg
42:03and the stumps
42:08and the way for poor leg bars
42:13well there's no taking a look walk straight in
42:19thirty-nine overs which is one five four the five
42:30that's fifty foreign
42:36quite a responsible not so far from Kyron Pollard on return to the 50 over unit
42:41this eight in audio is an addition to three hundreds
42:49that has rocketed off the bat
43:05he just stood there and delivered inside out
43:09one bounce thank you very much his first boundary
43:23gone for six as well just
43:24six number six for Karen Pollard today
43:36what a way to finish the over nine runs from it
43:40it's 169 for five
43:42I'm not sure I even time this one
43:49but that's the way he's been holding his shots
44:00there it is again another six but it's another boundary
44:03just as we're talking about 85 percent of runs
44:08a straight down the wicket
44:13and that's the end of another good over for the west indies it's 174 for five
44:19he's gonna be out
44:25not enough this time for Brathwaite big wicket for south africa
44:33the first time just didn't quite get enough
44:38yeah maybe not the most sensible option from Carlos Brathwaite
44:44but well done here in front gear so he's toiled hard
44:47she's deceived him a little bit and he's got just reward
44:52as a cause Brathwaite
44:55eight or 14 deliveries we've seen his 174 for six
45:03half a chance oh he's missed
45:07Pollard had given up he's been batting too long the knees were hard to turn around
45:13he's just going to do it in singles now polly he's going back for two good running
45:26good positive running
45:31he has to go dumini it's over and that's the win for the west indies and a great win it's been
45:37the first game in the tri-series and a win by four wickets
45:47requiring 189 to win the west indies had to work very hard in the initial phases of their innings
45:56until darren bravo was able to manipulate the ball around for 30 but it wasn't really until kyron pollard
46:02came in and showed some power in the early stages of his innings collecting three sixes in the first five or six balls he faced
46:11and then jason holder towards the end once that was done of course
46:15then they won the match by four wickets and 11 balls remaining
46:21for south africa the bowlers toiled really imran tahir probably was the pick with uh with the other spinner pangiso
46:29picking up five wickets between them and a decent kind of run rate but overall really the problem was
46:35with the batting for south africa so there's south africa they batted first after winning the toss
46:41really got away to a good start but they were strangled and the run rate was pulled back and then
46:45they lost their last seven wickets for 28 runs chief destroyer of course was sunil narine with six wickets
46:53and he was the key man for the west indies and also with kyron pollard with the bat so west indies
46:59thoroughly deserve their wickets and their victory by four wickets mike hazeman after the match spoke to
47:06the captains and the man of the match at the presentation now your form against south africa
47:13in the past in one day hasn't been good so this is uh pretty impressive from you guys on the surface
47:17you know pretty well yeah it's pretty good you know um i thought we both really well you know we
47:21summed up the conditions quite early i thought they got off to a pretty decent side but we pulled it
47:24back nicely um we got wickets in the middle which made it easier for us in the end uh credit must
47:29go to the western on the rainbow i thought he was exceptional and we supported him well we all know
47:32this first game is an important game but we don't have to look too far to see will you guys let
47:36yourselves down losing seven for 28. yes no definitely a bit short there with the bat um i thought we
47:42laid the foundation perfectly well and what was a really slow slow weekend in the afternoon was difficult to
47:47bat and um but we assessed it perfectly well and our new 220 220 plus was was reachable first of all
47:52and secondly would be a very very difficult uh score to chase um so unfortunately lost out on 30 to 40
47:57runs towards the end there um but lessons learned and uh we've got to look forward to to the next game
48:03against australia so now congratulations six for 27 i mean that's got to be something you've got to be
48:08proud of the best uh figures for a west indies spinner ever yeah i mean it's it's good being back in um
48:14west indies color so it's it's something i enjoy hopefully i couldn't i can do it until i'm ready
48:19to retire but seeing that it's it's a blessing to me um to be back and being able to perform like this
