West Indies v South Africa, 5th ODI, Trinidad
3 June, 2010
The humiliation was complete, but only moments after it seemed West Indies had done enough to avert it. Partly misfortune but mostly indiscipline cost them the fifth and final ODI in Port of Spain to ensure South Africa swept an ODI series 5-0 for the third time against West Indies. The wickets of half-centurions Jacques Kallis and JP Duminy had helped the hosts wrest control of the game, but Jerome Taylor's inopportune injury, Dwayne Bravo's poor death bowling and Kieron Pollard's nervy last over deprived the hosts of an elusive face-saving win.
South Africa's lower order had been untested this series due to the success of their frontline batsmen, but prevailed through a combination of luck and mettle.

Brief Score:
South Africa 255 for 9 (Kallis 57, Duminy 51) beat West Indies 252 for 6 (Chanderpaul 67, Deonarine 53) by one wicket
