Having
skittled
the
hosts
for
342,
the
West
Indies
were
then
left
with
a
significant
130-run
deficit
at
the
end
of
the
Nortje
show.
But
a
brilliant
spell
right
at
the
end
of
the
day
saw
South
Africa
lose
four
wickets
for
just
18
runs
towards
the
start
of
their
second
innings,
leaving
the
Proteas
looking
frustrated.
Alzarri
Joseph
(5-81)
started
the
day
by
picking
up
where
he
left
off,
ending
South
Africa’s
first
innings
when
dealing
with
Gerald
Coetzee
(17)
–
caught
easily
by
Jason
Holder
–
and
Nortje
(14)
to
complete
his
maiden
five-for,
owing
thanks
to
Tagenarine
Chanderpaul
for
getting
under
the
latter’s
slice.
West
Indies
initially
stood
firm
against
a
relentless
attack
as
they
went
into
bat,
Raymon
Reifer
(62)
proving
particularly
defiant.
Runs
were
tricky
to
come
by
for
the
tourists,
putting
on
just
65
between
lunch
and
tea,
though
Reifer
and
Jermaine
Blackwood
(37)
managed
a
respectable
stand
of
64.
But
Nortje
(5-36)
removed
Blackwood,
his
inside
edge
drawing
a
diving
catch
from
Heinrich
Klaasen,
who
ended
Reifer’s
resistance
in
similar
fashion
with
the
West
Indies
on
169-4.
South
Africa
made
light
work
of
the
rest,
Nortje
taking
another
four
wickets.
Aiden
Markram
–
scorer
of
115
on
day
one
–
was
seemingly
in
the
groove
once
again
as
he
hit
35
off
33.
But
Dean
Elgar
(1)
fell
short
going
for
the
ramp,
his
first
of
four
wickets
in
relatively
quick
succession,
Joseph
(2-17)
taking
two
and
Jason
Holder
(1-0)
removing
Keegan
Petersen
(7)
lbw
with
the
day’s
last
delivery.
A
day
for
the
bowlers
The
day’s
last
session
was
particularly
dramatic,
with
the
West
Indies
losing
seven
wickets
and
South
Africa
seeing
four
fall.
Clearly,
the
stars
of
the
day
were
Nortje
and
Joseph,
who
each
secured
five-fors.
The
South
Africa
man
deserves
special
mention,
however,
with
his
figures
of
5-36
truly
exceptional.
Holder
reaches
a
milestone
The
scalp
of
Petersen
right
at
the
end
of
the
day
was
momentous
for
Holder,
who
reached
150
Test
wickets.
As
such,
he
became
only
the
second
West
Indian
to
achieve
150
wickets
and
2,500
runs
in
Test
cricket.
Joseph
may
have
been
the
main
man
on
the
day,
but
Holder
had
his
moment
to
shine
as
well.
