West Indies were 97 for seven in reply of South Africa first innings total of 160 runs.
PROVIDENCE – Shamar Joseph marked his first taste of Test cricket on home soil with a five-wicket haul but South Africa hit back in kind as 17 wickets tumbled on a dramatic opening day of the second and final Test on Thursday.
Omitted for the rain-affected drawn first Test in Trinidad a week earlier, Joseph recaptured the form and energy of his debut series in Australia in January. "It's a great feeling to have done this at home," said 24-year-old Joseph in reflecting on his third five-wicket Test innings haul. Ironically, both players were selected for this match primarily for their bowling after batsman Ryan Rickelton and fast bowler Lungi Ngidi were dropped from the first Test side.
Following the pattern set earlier in the day by Joseph, the medium-pacer offered the ideal combination of movement through the air and off the seam to have the hosts tottering at 56 for six, bettering his previous best of a three for one, also against the West Indies three years earlier in St Lucia.
