West Indies vs South Africa Highlights 2nd Test Day 2: Kyle Verreynne, Wiaan Mulder Give South Africa Big Lead On Day 2 vs West Indies

We are back for the West Indies' response in the chase. The fielders of South Africa have taken their respective positions. Mikyle Louis and Kraigg Brathwaite are the two openers for West Indies. Kagiso Rabada to get the proceedings underway with the new ball. And, here we go...

... FOURTH INNINGS ...

Right then, the West Indies have displayed an immaculate bowling performance on Day 3 and they now require 263 runs to win this Sir Vivian Richards Trophy. The hosts would like to replicate the same fightback with the bat as well. With 2 more days still left in this Test match, they do have ample time left. But they can't take things too casually as the pitch has worn out now with a variable bounce on offer. The Proteas' pace attack would like to get quick wickets as soon as possible by utilizing the new ball and staying in the game by posing a stern challenge. Historically, South Africa has lost just a solitary game while defending a 250-plus target and the West Indies, on the other hand, has just one win while chasing more than 250. So, don't consider this one as a lopsided affair, folks! The game is back on a knife's edge with plenty to work for both sides. Stay tuned for the run chase which is up next shortly.

The man of the moment, Jayden Seales is in for a chat. He says he is happy to be performing well and it is a great feeling to get his second five-wicket haul at home. Adds that it has been a long time since he played Test cricket. Shares that he sat with their analyst and Kemar Roach during the Lunch break on Day 2, who asked him to just hit the pitch. Tells that he and Shamar Joseph are two different types of bowlers. Further says that Joseph is an attacking bowler while he is a conservative but both complement each other well.

The Proteas must've been wondering what hit them. Their batters were struggling to find their groove, and it was like the Windies bowlers had flipped a switch. With showers earlier on, there was a bit of moisture on the deck which helped the bowlers. The deck also presented a variable bounce which unsettled the batters. With the new ball taken after the first 10 overs, Jayden Seales was brought back into the attack and sealed things successfully for his side. In the blink of an eye, South Africa lost five quick wickets in about an hour flat. They slipped dramatically from 224 for 6 to a precarious 246 all out.

Take a bow, Jayden Seales! This morning has dawned with the bowling brilliance of the West Indies. They have wrapped up South Africa on 246 within the first hour of play. The day began after half an hour of delay due to overcast skies and a wet outfield. South Africa were sitting pretty at the end of Day 2, 239 runs ahead. They were probably feeling good, especially with Verreynne and Mulder's solid 85-run team-up. But man, did the West Indies bowlers crash that party. Day 3 rolled around, and they came out like they had something to prove. Jomel Warican kicked things off, sending Mulder packing. Then Jayden Seales went on a tear, snagging two quick wickets in his first couple of overs. The guy even bagged his second Test five-fer.

OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Jayden Seales gets his sixth one! This is sensational from this young man! Seales comes from around the wicket and bowls it fuller just outside off, nipping in sharply. Nandre Burger leans on the delivery to push it past the bowler but ends up chipping it back as the ball loops back to the bowler where Seales takes a sharp catch to his right on his follow through. South Africa have been bowled out for 246, ending with a lead of 262 runs.

Fullish now, on middle, angling in. Dane Piedt with no footwork, flicks it towards the vacant square leg region and gets a single.

Fires a bouncer, just outside off. Dane Piedt gets on his toes and dabs it outside off.

Swing straight away! Jayden Seales comes from over the wicket and bowls it on a back of a length outside off, and swings it away from the batter. Dane Piedt watchfully leaves it to the keeper.

The new ball is available now. And the West Indies waste no time to take the second new ball. Jayden Seales (18-4-60-5) is summoned back into the attack, replacing Jomel Warrican.

Back to around the wicket now and serves it in the channel on off, Nandre Burger gets his bat in the line of the ball and steers it towards point.

Joseph attacks the stumps with a scrambled seam delivery, a hint of nip back into the batter, on a good length, Nandre Burger gets behind the line of the ball to see it out.

At 134.4 kph, on a shortish length, going across the batter, Nandre Burger hops and taps it in front of cover.

Joseph switches to over the wicket and angles it across the batter, on a hard length, Nandre Burger extends his hands and dabs it in front of cover.

Joseph bends his back and digs it in short, at the batter, Nandre Burger ducks and lets the ball go through.

Leg bye! Joseph strays on the pads, on a nagging length, Dane Piedt looks to help it away but misses as the ball rolls off his pads towards backward square leg for a leg bye.

Drinks break! Well, well, well, this game has curved back into the balance now. South Africa has lost 4 wickets since the start of the play on Day 3, adding just 21 runs to their lead. For West Indies, it was about making or breaking and they executed an exemplary bowling display tying up the Proteas batters. Jayden Seales and Jomel Warrican are the destructors in chief this morning for the hosts and would aim to wrap up things as quickly as possible now. Nandre Burger is the last man in for South Africa.

OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Jomel Warrican has his man! Warrican gives the ball air and this drifts away from the left-hander, full and outside off, Kagiso Rabada lunges to smother the spin but there is no turn on offer on this one. It catches the outside edge of the bat and goes low to the left of the first slip. Kavem Hodge stationed there stays low and takes it near the shoelaces of his left boot. It is referred upstairs and the replays confirm that Hodge has his fingers clearly underneath the ball. South Africa lose their ninth wicket with a lead of 260 runs.

Is that a clean catch? The on-field umpire wants to check whether Kavem Hodge has taken it cleanly. And he has, quite comfortably. Kagiso Rabada walks back.
