Ball-by-Ball Commentary


Match State: Match scheduled to start at 10.05 local time (14.05 gmt)

       Good day from CricInfo and the test RSA v WI at Bourda Georgetown
        Guyana
       West Indies have won the toss and will bat this the 1st test in
        this series
       Also the first test on WI soil since 1992 where a one off test was
        won by WI
       West Indies have left out CHanderpaul
       The pitch is expected to stay low, but will assist the batsmen,
        with turn expected from day 3 or 4
       Weather in Guyana however is always a factor and 5 days without
        rain is a rare occurance
       A stadium, one of the bigger ones from West Indies holds 22,000 and
        25,000 is expected to squeeze themselves in
       The band has already struck a note or two, with the volume turned
        up very high
       A great atmosphere will great the players as they emerge
       WI have won 3 of the last 5 tests here only drawing the other two
       an average of 300+ runs for the batsmen, but nothing to shout about
        for the bowlers
       The UK Duke ball with the higher sream is to be used for this test,
        but the pitch looks like a dream for the batsmen
       Pollocked called heads, tails came up and you could see the grimace
        on Pollocks face
       No doubt for Hooper to bat
       Umpires JH Hampshire (Eng) and EA Nicholls on the field
       Donald to start to the left hander Hinds

   0.2 Donald to Hinds, one run, on side, half forward, gets off the way
        as he turns it fwd of fine leg

        outside the crease, Boacher diving saves in front of 2nd slip

        nothing to write home about
   0.4 Donald to Gayle, no run, left alone, moving away outside off

        to tempt Gayle, also a left hander

        thickish edge to 2nd slip, but lands well short

       the last session in no dougt belongs to South Africa with the
        scales tilting in the visitors direction
       South Africa will be well pleased with the days play, while West
        Indies might be slightly upset by not capitalising on the great
        start
       Lara playing a indiffernt shot started the slide.... so we are set
        for an interesting second day with a pitch that I believe is going
        to have a bearing on the outcome

Match State: Stumps - Day One

       Welcome to this day two coverage from CricInfo of the West Indies
        vs South Aftica first test
       Yesterday was a day when we saw some inconsistent bounce, and this
        is bound to continue today
       After building an innings and being 203/3 at one stage South Africa
        came back to have the Windies at 232/7 at close
       Klusener, Kallis and Donald being the main reasons for the comeback
       Lara however contributed by throwing his wicket away, starting the
        mini-collapse
       It is now up to newly ellected captain, Carl Hooper, to get the
        innings back on the road
       In South Africa's favour is the fact that the new ball is only two
        balls old
       Play is die to get under in 5 minutes
       Donald to start the dat to Hooper
  90.1 Donald to Hooper, no run, left alone outside off
  90.2 Donald to Hooper, no run, juts outside line, on length, comes well
        forward, defends to the covers
       Full house predicted here today, and looks to be that as people
        still streaming in
  90.3 Donald to Hooper, no run, on line, slight movement back off the
        seam, well in line, pushes out to the on side
  90.4 Donald to Hooper, no run, forward, not to far this time, from the
        crease, defends
  90.5 Donald to Hooper, no run, outside line, forward, firm and timed
        stroke to the off, Gibbs gets in the way
  90.6 Donald to Hooper, no run

        and now 15 overs in which 9 fours were struck and no wickets
       For both umpires there may be a few blushes when they have a look
        at three decisions made, they more than any other will not sleep
        well tonight
       Join us again at 14:05 GMT tomorrow for day 4 with the West Indies
