The West Indies Women’s team recorded a crucial 8-wicket win over South Africa yesterday (Saturday) at Windsor Park, Roseau, Dominica in the third of the five-match One-Day International between the two countries.
After winning the toss and inviting the visitors to take first strike, the Windies bowlers struck at regular intervals to bowl out the South Africans who are leading the series 2-1 for 120 in 47.1 overs.
Top scoring for the South Africans was Mignon du Preez with 20, support came from Susanna Benade (17), Shandre Fritz (15), Sunette Loubser (15*) and Chloe-Lesleigh Tryon (10) the only other batters reaching double figures.
Doing the damage with the ball for the home team were Stafanie Taylor (9.1-2-22-4), Shaquana Quintyne (10-3-14-3) with one wicket each for Shanel Daley (9-2-26-1) and Anisa Mohammed (10-2-24-1).

In reply, player-of-the-match Taylor blasted a well composed 71 to set the foundation for a comfortable win for the Windies Women as they ended on 121-2 from 29.2 overs.
Taylor featured in an opening partnership of 75 with Kycia Knight who made 24. Guyanese Shemaine Campbelle was unbeaten on 17 along with Deandra Dottin (4) when victory was achieved.
Taylor was second wicket to fall at 111 but by then the writing was already on the wall for the South Africans.
South Africa Women won the first two games by 80 runs and 4 wickets, respectively.
