Mulder and Burger lead South Africa’s fightback after Joseph’s five-star performance

Joseph finished with figures of 5-33 off 14 overs and was supported well by Jayden Seales, who took 3-45, also from 14 overs.

The West Indian reply got off to a disappointing start when Mikyle Louis was bowled by Burger for a duck in the second over.

The hosts then continued to lose wickets at regular intervals as Kraigg Brathwaite (3), Alick Athanaze (1), Kavem Hodge (4), Keacy Carty (26), and Joshua Da Silva (4) all fell within the first 20 overs.

Jason Holder has provided the only meaningful resistance to the South African bowling with 33*, while Gudakesh Motie’s wicket for 11 in the 29th over signaled the end of the day’s play.

Wiaan Mulder has dominated the West Indian batting so far with a career-best 4-18 off six overs, while Burger has taken 2-32 from his seven overs. (SportsMax)
