Bravo, Gabriel put Windies in final... (From page 26) drive to wicketkeeper de Kock off seamer Wayne Parnell at the end of the second over and the 21-year-old Rabada picked up his first wicket when he had Johnson Charles caught at second slip by Morris for four in the next over. With the following delivery, Rabada yorked the inform Marlon Samuels offstump and in his next over, the fifth of the innings, he rattled Denesh Ramdin (4) with blow to the helmet before plucking out his middle stump next ball. Bravo and Pollard then
came to their side’s rescue in a partnership which was the highest fifth wicket stand for West Indies against South Africa. While Bravo struck 12 fours and four sixes, Pollard counted seven fours and two sixes. Fortune favoured Bravo on 11 when he top-edged a pull off pacer Morkel in the 11th over only for Parnell on the long leg boundary to parry the ball over the ropes for six. Emboldened by his reprieve, Bravo greeted the introduction of Imran Tahir in

the next over with a six over long on off the leg-spinner’s second ball and he then cruised to his half-century off 52 deliveries, bringing up his landmark by driving Parnell to the cover boundary in the 19th over. He needed a further 48 balls to reach triple figures, emphatically reaching the milestone by imperiously smashing Morris back overhead for the last of his four sixes. Pollard, meanwhile, provided great support in a knock marked by good judgement. He managed only two runs from his first ten balls but then exploded with a six and a four off Morkel in the 15th over which cost 15 runs before belting Morris for three successive boundaries in the next over which leaked 14 runs. He reached his ninth ODI fifty in the 29th over and celebrated in the same over with a six and a four off left-arm spinner JP Duminy. The partnership was broken when Pollard picked out Faf du Plessis at long on off Morkel in the 30th over and Bravo added a further 33 with Holder for the sixth wicket before skying Morris to du Plessis at mid-on in the 37th over. Holder then crunched three fours and two sixes and Brathwaite, two fours and a six, as they sustained the momentum with a 54-run stand for the seventh wicket. Chasing a challenging total, the Proteas were never allowed to settle as Gabriel, in only his second One-Day International, knocked over Quinton de Kock (6), du Plessis (3) and captain AB de Villiers (2) inside the first eight overs, as the visitors slumped to 28 for three. De Kock perished in the fourth over to a fine catch at the wicket by Ramdin, du Plessis was beaten for pace and lbw in the seventh over while de Villiers nicked a drive behind in the eighth over. The Proteas were in deeper trouble at 35 for four when Narine trapped the dangerous opener Hashim Amla lbw for 16, and Duminy’s demise, taken at gully by Sulieman Benn off pacer Holder for five in the 15th over, left the innings in ruins at 51 for five. The next four wickets fell for 83 runs before Morkel and Imran Tahir combined to delay the inevitable.

Riddim Squad get past... (From page 27) minute goal. In the night’s opening match, Police were too hot for the Flaming o s i d e w h o m they trounced 6-0, the score line could have easily been more devastating were it not for a number of missed chances.

They have both won... (From page 26) to ensure not only the elite league is a reality but also our junior leagues.” Commenting on the issue of the format of the league which is being debated hotly, Inniss, a former goalkeeper, said that there would be a review of this inaugural league and what is best for all including the clubs would be imple-
mented for the next SEL. ”We eagerly anticipate a very competitive match because arguably, these two clubs have really been the shining light of football for Guyana over the recent past. We can easily anticipate a very, very competitive match and once and for all settle the score.” There will be no cash incentive attached to tomorrow’s match, a trophy is at stake.
