West Indies chief Jason Holder has surrendered that his group's knocking down some pins, including his own, was worse than average in their match in St Kitts on Wednesday, where Hashim Amla's century set up a robust win for South Africa.
Amla scored 110 out of South Africa's 343 for 4, and his opening organization of 182 with Quinton de Kock put South Africa immovably on top for the duration of the day. Holder knocked down some pins six overs and guaranteed 0 for 51, Jerome Taylor grabbed 1 for 72 from eight, and just the spinners Sunil Narine and Sulieman Benn could keep the rushes to five or less per over.
"I simply didn't think we played well, it's as basic as that," Holder said. "The pitch was superior to the last amusement, yet having said that despite everything I don't think we knocked down some pins especially well, particularly in the main Powerplay.
"Myself and Jerome - I thought Jerome knocked down some pins sensibly well in the main Powerplay however myself, I was thoroughly off the imprint. We paid for it. Credit must go to the way Hashim Amla played. I thought he was splendid. Yet, having said that I don't think we knocked down some pins getting it done."
The solid South African batting came after they were sent in at the hurl by Holder, normal of the West Indian inclination to pursue in constrained overs matches. Holder said he had no second thoughts in regards to his choice, just about the way he and his men knocked down some pins.
"On the off chance that I could do it over I'd most likely do likewise once more," he said. "I simply don't think we knocked down some pins well. They got 340-odd. Toward the start of the diversion, you'd most likely take 280 or 300, given the sort of pitch and the measurements of the ground. We just thought they were 40 or 50 runs too much, and we paid for it at last."
South Africa's triumph implied that after six matches in Guyana and St Kitts, every one of the three groups sit on two wins and two misfortunes. South Africa have increased two reward focuses, Australia one and West Indies none, and the groups have two matches each in Barbados to figure out which sides will meet in the last at Kensington Oval.
"In the wake of losing wickets in bunches, we never truly got associations going to keep them from getting the reward point," Holder said. "Yet, it was in the back of our brains, to keep them from getting the reward point. Yet, sadly we didn't.
"For every one of the three groups it's must-win. The focuses table is still close. Whoever wins two recreations in Barbados is ensured a spot in the last. On the off chance that you win one of the two you must keep a watch out how you complete on the table."
