6:25pm Right. That will be that from us for tonight. Thanks for sticking around earlier in the day when the rain fell, although this game certainly ensured that that downpour was not the lasting image today. These two teams will be at it again tomorrow, at this very venue, with South Africa hoping to level the series. Until next time, this is me (Shashwat) signing off on behalf of Chandan and everyone else at ESPNcricinfo! Goodbye, goodnight and take care!

Rovman Powell, the West Indies captain is also the Player of the Match: I was disappointed with the way I got out in the ODIs. Just trying to bat through the tough periods. Today, the first ball I was respectful and I tried to push it around. A lot of guys in the team are used to the T10 format and that helped us. The ball travels so nicely here and we knew that 130 is gettable. All we needed was for two batters to bat long. We played a lot of shots but there are still periods where you have to push it around. You can't keep hitting good bowlers for sixes. (On plans for tomorrow) We just have to do the basics right. It is important to get wickets with the new ball and that is the only way to stop a strong South African batting line-up.

Aiden Markram, South Africa captain: (Where things went wrong) It was always going to go down to the wire. Starting off with the bat and ball, we let ourselves down. To take it down to the last over after the start they had was a great effort by the bowlers. Tomorrow, hopefully we can come back and start a lot better. At a venue like this, the ball flies. We always knew we needed a lot of runs on the board. We would have taken 130 at the start but I still think we could have started better. Plenty of positives we can take. Lots of bowlers did excellently today. It will be a fresh day tomorrow, a fresh start and guys who did not do well today can come back tomorrow.

Bacha Khan : "Rovman Powell is such a great hitter of the ball, I truly enjoy his hitting when he is in the mood. hats off to him "

6:12pm An extraordinarily entertaining game of cricket that ebbed, flowed and ultimately tilted towards the West Indies. Skipper Powell played a major role, starring with an unbeaten 43, which came off just 18 balls. Charles, King and Pooran also came up with crucial cameos and ensured that the West Indies stayed ahead of the required run-rate throughout their innings. There was a slight wobble towards the end as Magala and Nortje tightened the screws in the 9th and 10th overs. But Powell held his nerve to ensure that he took his team past the finish line.

South Africa might not want to read too much into this contest, although they might not be pleased with how they bowled at the start and in the middle phases. Fortuin conceded 42 in two overs, Shamsi went for 27 in his two, and Parnell gave away 25 runs in the nine balls he bowled. Against a power-packed batting unit, the hosts would want their bowlers to stand up when these teams meet next.

Scores level now

Square leg, third man, point and extra cover in the circle

Eight needed off the final over. Parnell to bowl. Powell on strike. What a climax to a thoroughly entertaining game!

Big ball coming up

Right then. Magala is on a hat-trick now, and he has Chase in his sights
