00:00West Indies vs South Africa. Victory here would secure a spot in the semi-final. Brandon
00:05King and Shea Hope starting the mark for the West Indies. After two of us, things were
00:10looking okay for the Indies. However, in the third, Shea Hope was gone off the bowling
00:15of Kegiso Rabada.
00:21Some would say Shimron Hetmaa was due to fail after a hot run of four Maa and after being
00:25dropped twice in the last match. He was not dropped this time.
00:30King was next to go for 21. His position at the top would be a cause for concern for the
00:35Windies. And Ruston Chase made two.
00:43Shafin Rutherford's fireworks were short lived. Six day for five.
00:49Rovman Powell would follow. He made nine. Another wicket would fall. Matthew Ford. 83 for seven.
01:01However, if it's anything the West Indies can take away is the depth of their batting. Jason
01:07Holder and Romario Sheppard played key roles for their team. There were ten overs remaining. Still
01:16a chance for the Windies to post a competitive score. The two-time champions recovered like the
01:21Wolverine. Their best form of defense was a good assault on their opponents. They put on 89 or 57
01:28balls for the eight wicket to bring West Indies to 176. They added 58 runs of the final five overs,
01:35including Holder taking the 18th, bowled by Marco Jansen for 23. Holder was eventually run out for 49.
01:42Shepard getting to a well played 52. Engede the pick of the bowlers with three for 22.
01:49In reply, Aidan Markram smacked 82 not out of 46 balls. And Quinton Decoq got off on this occasion.
01:56He made a quick fire 47 of 24 balls. The Windies needed to get them out earlier to stand the
02:02chance
02:02of winning this match. Now trying to flick this away is Markram. Iron the air hangs, but because
02:07of the field restrictions. Ruston Chase removed Decoq, but by then the Bloteers were sailing.
02:14And in the safe hands of Jason Holder. South Africa's captain struck seven fours and four sixes.
02:21Ryan Rickleton was not out on 45. With the exception of Jason Holder, every other bowler went for 10 runs
02:27per
02:27over. South Africa chasing 177 with 23 balls to spare. The move to two points clear at the top of
02:35group
02:35one in the super eights. That's a tough team to beat as South Africa defeated the West Indies by nine
02:42wickets to maintain their unbeaten record at the T20 World Cup. Sergio Dufo, TV6 Sport.
