West Indies in Zimbabwe and South Africa 2007-08 / Scorecard

West Indies in South Africa ODI Series - 3rd ODI

South Africa v West Indies

South Africa won by 7 wickets (with 8 balls remaining)

ODI no. 2666 | 2007/08 season
Played at St George's Park, Port Elizabeth
27 January 2008 (50-over match)


West Indies innings (50 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
BA Parchment	c Langeveldt b Pollock	5	28	19	0	0	26.31
6.4 gone! first breakthrough for South Africa as Parchment comes down the track and tries to have a huge heave over the leg side. The ball goes miles into the air and comes down with Charl Langeveldt underneath it running back from mid-on 24/1
S Chattergoon	b Botha	52	104	81	7	1	64.19
23.4 gone this time! a quicker arm-ball from Botha, Chattergoon goes for the cut and drags into his stumps to end a well-constructed half-century and give a timely boost to South Africa 99/2
PA Browne	lbw b Botha	35	92	54	2	2	64.81
27.6 gone! Browne plays back and is struck in front of middle and leg, huge appeal from Botha and he gets the decision for his second wicket. It's been a decent spell from Botha 110/3
MN Samuels	c Duminy b Morkel	98	114	88	7	4	111.36
49.6 gone! Samuels misses his hundred as he tries to swing Morkel over midwicket for another six, it doesn't have the legs and Duminy judges the catch well running around the boundary. But it was a fine innings from Samuels and has given West Indies a chance to stay in the series 252/7
RS Morton	b Kallis	13	43	31	1	0	41.93
38.6 gone! a huge heave across the line from Morton as he walks down the pitch against a good length ball and he gets an inside edge which makes an awful mess of the stumps. Another blow to West Indies' hopes of building a late charge 157/4
DJ Bravo*	run out (Morkel)	7	17	9	1	0	77.77
42.1 Morkel to Samuels, outstanding from Morkel! a low full toss is driven fiercely back to Morkel who sticks out one hand to field it, then spins round and notices Bravo is backing up a long way. He then takes aim and throws down the stumps, the third umpire isn't needed for this one...a great piece of awareness 174/5
DJG Sammy	c Smith b Langeveldt	12	9	6	1	1	200.00
43.6 gone! the fun can't last for Sammy as he swings so hard across the line that he loses control of the bat...Smith sprints in from midwicket but doesn't quite judge it properly and has to dive and slide forward to hold a superb catch low to the ground. He appears to have hurt his troublesome knee again, but he did well to hold on 197/6
D Ramdin†	not out	12	26	14	0	0	85.71
