South ASfrica win the 2nd ODI by 16 runs after a very spirited
fight back by the last West Indian pair
The West Indian side showed a far better performance than the 1st
ODI at Newlands
During the South African innings the bowlers bowled well to
restrict the South African batting
It was only Dippenaar for South Africa who saw them get to 179, a
total which was easily gettable
Collymore was the pick of the West Indian bowling, garnering 3
wickets for a very creditable 25 runs
However when the West Indies came out to bat they were in early
trouble losing their first 3 wickets for 25 runs in under 10 overs
Although they were always ahed of the asking run rate, wickets fell
too quickly
3 run outs did nothing to help their cause in tyhe run chase
In partcular Brian Lara's run out came at a CRITICAL TIME AND IT
WAS SUICIDE TO ATTEMPT THE SHARP SINGLE
It was a fine effort by the 10th wicket who brought the West Indies
in sight of an unlikely victory
The west Indies can leave this match in better spirits and can
build on their performance for the 3rd ODI in Durban on Friday
