Presentations coming up...
The bowlers just had a day to forget, over 500 runs were scored in the game. Despite that Windies will be disappointed they could not defend it but take anything away from a stellar performance by the hosts.
Quinton de Kock was in full flow, he hit the ball all around the park and Reeza played as the perfect foil to him. De Kock's ton laid the foundation for his side to chase a big score down and the rest did their job to ensure a record-breaking win.
What a win, what a fantastic chase, a record chase from the hosts to level the series. When Windies ended their innings at 258 courtesy of a ton from Charles, we felt they have batted the hosts out of the game but South Africa had different ideas.
