Their batters kept hitting and crossing the boundary line even though they kept losing wickets at regular intervals. By the end of the innings, they posted a huge total of 220 runs on the board. After a decent opening stand, Proteas batters changed gears and went ahead full throttle, but with remarkable work by the West Indies bowlers, they kept their nerves and won their team the match by just seven runs.
