South Africa vs West Indies 4th ODI at Durban

South Africa defeat West Indies in fourth ODI (4:0)

Retiring hometown hero Shaun Pollock fittingly hit the winning runs in his last international match at Kingsmead as South Africa cruised to a five-wicket victory over West Indies.
The 34-year-old all-rounder, playing his penultimate international before retiring, sent a full toss from Dwayne Bravo to the boundary to ease the hosts past their victory target to go 4-0 up in the five-match series. After winning the toss and opting to bat, Jerome Taylor smashed a quickfire 43 to help West Indies recover from a middle-order collapse and post 263 for nine.
Herschelle Gibbs led the Proteas' response with a blistering 77 from 86 balls while captain Graeme Smith hit an aggressive 50 before Pollock finished the job off.
Smith smashed his third half-century of the series - his 35th in ODIs - before being caught next ball by Shivnarine Chanderpaul at short mid-wicket off Darren Sammy with the total on 77. Jacques Kallis contributed just one before getting an outside edge to Sammy at point off the bowling of Fidel Edwards, and then Gibbs got an inside edge in Dwayne Bravo's first over and dragged onto his leg stump for 39. And Bravo made the next breakthrough when JP Duminy miscued and was caught by Taylor at mid-on for 44.
AB De Villiers passed 2000 ODI runs on his way to 77 before finding Bravo at mid-wicket off the bowling of Daren Powell. But Pollock and Mark Boucher saw the South Africans home with more than two overs to spare. Both finished 21 not out, with Pollock hitting a four off Bravo to conclude matters.
Earlier on Friday, the tourists had been 206 for nine before Taylor's late cameo - his career-best unbeaten 43 coming from just 21 balls - helped guide them to their highest total of the series.
