Man of the matchShai Hope (West Indies)

After rain washed the first ODI between WI and South Africa. Both of the teams geared up for the second ODI at Buffalo Park, East London.

West Indian captain Shai Hope won the toss and chose to bat first. There were four debutants for Proteas : Ryan Rickelton, Tony De Zorzi, Tristan Stubbs and Gerald Coetzee.

Windies started off to flier thanks to Kyle Mayers and Brandon King for their brisk start. They made 67 runs partnership only in 51 deliveries. But Fortuin did send both the openers packing. While their number three batter Shamrah Brooks got a 5 ball duck.

Nicholas Pooran and skipper Shai Hope made an 86 runs stand before Pooran went back to huddle by Gerald Coetzee. Pooran made 39 off 41 balls. Hope and Powell stitched another handy partnership of 80 runs and Powell was bowled by Coetzee when he was only 4 runs away from his half century.


But their captain Hope stood tall and he notched up his 15th ODI hundred. With the help of Hope's 128* off 115 deliveries WI posted a mountain total of 335. And left Proteas to chase 336 runs to win.

Proteas started off to a flier, thanks to De Kock and his breezy 48 off 26 deliveries which had 5 boundaries and 3 maximums. After the departure of Kock and Rickelton skipper Bavuma took the rein and steered the ship with debutant Tony De Zorzi. They both made 61- run partnership before Zorzi deceived by Akeal Hossain.

Van Der Dussen too was out cheaply. He scored only 8 off 11 deliveries. Tristan stubbs scored 6 off 10 and was gone by Odean Smith. Marco Jansen, Gerald Coetzee and Fortuin all were gone in span of 3 overs.


But their skipper Bavuma didn’t lose his concentration. He was at his best today. He slammed his 5th ODI ton. And was smashing the WI bowlers out of the park. South Africa needed 84 runs off 84 deliveries, run rate was never their problem. It was the remaining wickets which itched them badly.


They had only two wickets in their pocket. But Bavuma had other ideas, he bludgeoned 3 maximums in Cariah's 39th over and made the deficit to 58 from 11 overs.


But Alzzari Joseph made it possible for WI as he took both of the remaining wickets and won the match for WI by 48 runs. Bavuma's valient knock of 144 off 118 deliveries couldn’t win them the match.
