South Africa vs West Indies 2nd Test at Cape Town

South Africa beat West Indies by 7 wickets (1:1)

South Africa hit 186 runs in 35 overs to beat West Indies by seven wickets and a day to spare in the second test. The three-match series is now tied 1-1.
South Africa quickly reached 186-3 in its second innings, with captain Graeme Smith returning to form with 85 off 79 balls, including 11 boundaries.
Earlier, West Indies captain Chris Gayle came back in to bat with a broken thumb to help his team reach 262 with a 70-run last-wicket partnership. Set 185 to win, South Africa chose to play aggressively after rain was forecast for Sunday at Newlands Stadium.
Undefeated batsmen Jacques Kallis (22) and Ashwell Prince (12) finished it off for South Africa. A.B. de Villiers opened the innings with Smith due to Neil McKenzie's calf muscle tear. De Villiers hit 23 in 24 balls before falling to a good catch by substitute Darren Sammy at midwicket off the bowling of Dwayne Bravo.
Hashim Amla joined the run chase, hitting 37 in support of Smith in a partnership of 83 in just 17 overs. Amla and Smith each fell to slip catches by Gayle off legspinner Rawl Lewis. Gayle used his uninjured right hand after fracturing his left thumb when he was hit on the hand by Andre Nel in the first over of the day's play.
The third test starts in Durban on Thursday. West Indies won the first test by 128 runs in Port Elizabeth.
