- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR33.1 Pollard finds a way past the opening pair, has Amla skying a catch to long-off. He rolls his fingers across this full offcutter. Barely 100ks. Amla aims to launch it over the fielder. No dice. He slices it and finds Narine. End of a fine, fine effort. Dolly catch 182/134.1 bowled im. De kock has struggled and struggled and he is now gone. Taylor goes wider of the crease from around the wicket and bowls a yorker on off. The ball is quick and hustles under the bat of de Kock. Uproots off stump and WI are fighting back here 185/240.3 taken this time. Morris goes but he plays a really good innings here. Slower legcutter outside off, Morris looks to put this in the stands over midwicket again but skews it off the outside half. Lobs up and midwicket comes in to take a safe catch. Quite a special innings that 245/347.3 mis-timed this and taken. AB goes. Slower ball on middle, bounces a bit extra, which was probably responsible for the ball bouncing more. AB looked to hit that over midwicket again but skews it off towards long-on, who takes a god catch running to his left 309/4Extras12 (b 4, lb 2, nb 2, w 4)TOTAL343/4 (50 Overs, RR: 6.86)Fall of wickets: 1-182 (Hashim Amla, 33.1 ov), 2-185 (Quinton de Kock, 34.1 ov), 3-245 (Chris Morris, 40.3 ov), 4-309 (AB de Villiers, 47.3 ov)

Player of the Match
- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.6 swung away... into the hands of deep midwicket. It dips, dips, FB dives forward and plucks out a smart low catch. Tahir finds the breakthrough and sets off on a celebratory sprint. Fletcher is asked to wait. It looks a nice, clean catch. Fletcher has to go. Straight ball on off, no turn, swiped to FB 69/112.5 Charles fell for 48 last match. He falls for 49 this match. Shamsi leaps for joy. No signs of the bus-driver jig yet in the tri-series. The batsman stepped out. Shamsi held this googly back outside off. Down the track and sliced into the lap of Faf at long-off 82/215.6 Parnell rolls his fingers across this. Offbreak, 128,3ks, gets Bravo and leaves WI three down. Swerves in slow at Bravo and sneaks through the gate. He is already through with his swing. Timbaaah! 90/322.5 six and out. Tahir has 100 ODI wickets, the fastest South African, fourth-fastest overall. Shortish and wide outside off, the regulation legbreak. Samuels hangs back and tries to cut but gets a thick outside edge which is well held by de Kock. Had his gloves in the right position. A loose shot from Samuels 128/521.5 easily taken. This time it is the googly, and extracts extra bounce as a result. A little short down leg, Ramdin tries to pull but fails to keep it down. A thick top edge as a result and the ball lobs off to backward square leg where Morris runs in and completes an easy reverse-cupped catch 121/433.6 rank long-hop and Tahir takes a five-for! Three wickets in the over. He sets off again. Dropped way short and outside off, Pollard skips back and pulls. Hits it straight to FB at deep midwicket. This is a simpler catch for FB 170/833.1 gone. Plumb in front. Absolutely no worries about that. Flat delivery on middle and leg, Holder tries to reverse lap but he misses it by some distance. The ball hits him flush in front and the umpire gives him. Plumb as they get. 169/633.2 cleaned 'em up! Tahir sets off on another celebratory run! He blows kisses as well. Somebody catch him! He greets Carlos with a zippy googly. The new man heaves across the line and misses. The furniture is rattled 169/735.3 Make that a six-wicket haul for Tahir. No celebrations this time. Wrong'un outside off. Benn reaches out and slices a drive to Shamsi at backward point 182/937.6 Tahir becomes the first SA bowler to take seven wickets in an ODI. South Africa earn a bonus-point win and go top of the points table. The legspinner plucks out a stump as souvenir. Slider at 94ks, breaches the defences and nails the stumps. Taylor played back and watched it shoot a bit low 204/10Extras15 (b 1, lb 2, nb 2, w 10)TOTAL204 all out (38 Overs, RR: 5.36)Fall of wickets: 1-69 (Andre Fletcher, 8.6 ov), 2-82 (Johnson Charles, 12.5 ov), 3-90 (Darren Bravo, 15.6 ov), 4-121 (Denesh Ramdin, 21.5 ov), 5-128 (Marlon Samuels, 22.5 ov), 6-169 (Jason Holder, 33.1 ov), 7-169 (Carlos Brathwaite, 33.2 ov), 8-170 (Kieron Pollard, 33.6 ov), 9-182 (Sulieman Benn, 35.3 ov), 10-204 (Jerome Taylor, 37.6 ov)
