Match State: Stumps - Day 3
Welcome to Bridgetown barbados for this the 4th day of the 3rd test
between West Indies and South Africa
The outcome of this match depends a lot on the South African
progress this morning
With only two days to go the outcome is heading towards a draw,
except if the pitch starts playing up
We did see some low bounce during the final session, as well as
more and more dust puffing up on the ball hitting the pitch
The other important bit is that no West Indies batsman has ever
scored a hundred against South Africa, Will Hooper be the first,
he deserves it
The injury to Donald looked as if he would not be bowling again in
this match, but a good rest might have helped him, It is not
often that he bats as long as he did
Donald will however not start on the pitch this morning, with a
hamstring problem twinged ducking a Walsh bouncer
The latest word is that he will not be on the pitch today
Adams having a run on the pitch for Donald
94.1 Kallis to Hooper, no run, outside off, left alone
94.2 Kallis to Hooper, no run, outside off, slight movement off the
pitch, well saved by Boje at gully
two balls bowled, and the front foot on the bowling crease has dug
a big hole
`The groundsman did not do a good job there overnight
Groundsman out there now doing some repairs
pulling big chunks out of the area now
something he should have done last night
94.3 Kallis to Hooper, no run, back of a length outside off, chops bwd
of point, a diving Gibbs gets applause for a great save
94.4 Kallis to Hooper, no run, outside off, forward, leaves him, beaten
once more the groundsman is being called, very soft clay on the
front bowling crease
Pollock also having a look at the other end, which is just as bad
If they dig any further, they will strike oil
Hopefully this is not a April fools jokes
This is going to be one of the slowest overs ever, 4 balls in 12
minutes, without a run being scored or a wicket falling
players leaving the field
Batsmen are still out there but the South Africans are going to the
changerooms
State "Delay - Pitch Repairs"
Match State: Delay - Pitch Repairs
Umpires will have a look at the foothole problems in 15 minutes
It appears as if the groundstaff only made repairs to the footholes
this morning before play
The clay used to fill in the holes from the previous days did not
have enough time to harden
Players back

light has been offered to the batsmen and off they go
So what a day of cricket, West Indies fighting to avoid a follow
on, goes to bed tonight with a chance of winning the game
A few quick wickets and West Indies are well into leveling the
series
South Africa will have to bat for at least the first session to
save the test, and without Donald will be hard pressed to bowl the
West Indies out
A lead of 119 runs and 90 overs to be bowled, anything can still
happen
Be with Cricinfo as we bring you the final day tomorrow from 14:05
