South Africa set West Indies 164 to win in T20I

KINGSTON, Jamaica (AFP) — Captain Rassie van der Dussen struck 51 from 31 balls as South Africa set West Indies a target of 164 to win in the third and final game of the three-match series at Sabina Park on Sunday.

The Caribbean side have an unsurmoutable 2-0 lead in the series which comes ahead of the T20 World Cup, which will be co-hosted by the West Indies and the United States.

Van der Dussen hit five sixes in his crucial innings, putting on 77 in 8.1 overs in a fifth wicket partnership with Wiaan Mulder.

West Indies left-arm pace-man Obed McCoy, called into the World Cup squad on Sunday to replace the injured Jason Holder, took 3-39 in four overs.

Fast bowler Shamar Joseph took 2-26 in four overs while Gudakesh Motie took for 2-21 in his three overs.
