Cricinfo staff

December 19, 2007

Scorecard

Monde Zondeki, the right-arm fast bowler, tore through the West Indian batting line-up with five wickets to restrict the tourists to 193 after they opted to bat. Even though South Africa A replied strongly - 78 for 1 at the close with Neil McKenzie, the captain, unbeaten on 43 - the day belonged to Zondeki who played the last of his five Tests for South Africa over two years ago.

Despite two early losses, the West Indians were well-placed at 83 for 2 before a flurry of wickets - including a second-ball duck for Shivnarine Chanderpaul - had them reeling on 112 for 7. A spirited fightback by Runako Morton (54) and useful 40s from Darren Sammy and Rawl Lewis helped them to 193. Sammy and Lewis shared 57 for the eighth wicket and hit 11 fours and a six between them.

Charl Langeveldt and Vernon Philander took two wickets apiece to back-up Zondeki, who has been in excellent domestic form this season with 44 wickets in seven matches.

South Africa A lost an early wicket when Alviro Petersen was bowled by Sammy for 8. But Morne van Wyk and McKenzie put on an unbroken 63 for the second wicket as the visiting bowlers struggled in their only first-class fixture before a three-Test series starting in Port Elizabeth next Wednesday.
