Skipper Temba Bavuma will have to continue his salvaging mission after the lunch break as he tries to steady the Proteas ship following the loss of four second innings wickets on Friday morning.
Bavuma, who registered “a pair” in the first Test and shouldered arms in the first innings to be trapped lbw, gradually grew into his innings, taking advantage when the West Indies strayed too straight with their lines.There were some lovely flicks off his legs through the leg side, and few elegant glances to the fine leg boundary.
His strength is his play through the off-side, but at the highest level it can also be an area for the opposition bowlers to exploit and the West Indies did that well, hanging deliveries outside off stump and testing his patience.Eventually Rickelton succumbed on the stroke of lunch with a lazy waft at the ball, much like in the first innings.South Africa may have the runs on the board, but it’s not like this wicket played many tricks in the morning.
