A bustling unbeaten 79 from JP Duminy helped South Africa to a six-wicket win in the opening game of this five-ODI series at Centurion. They strolled home with two overs in the bank but that hides the fact that they had more than a few uneasy moments during their chase.
 
The match, reduced to 36 overs a side after heavy overnight rain, followed a similar pattern to Friday's Twenty20. South Africa's bowlers took an early stranglehold, West Indies battled back, South Africa's batsmen wobbled before their strength in depth enabled them to secure victory. Two days ago Shaun Pollock was the hero; today it was JP Duminy.
