South Africa had toured West Indies earlier where they had played 3 test matches, 5 ODI matches and 2 Twenty20 matches. South Africa came back with glory as they won all the 3 series. They won the test series by 2-0, ODI series by 5-0 and Twenty20 series by 2-0.
On the third day of the last test match, South African fast bowler Dale Steyn had spit against the direction of the West Indian spin bowler Sulieman Benn when West Indies had dismissed an South African batsman. Dale steyn was fined his entire match fee under the code of conduct by the ICC. Later, South African manager Mohammed Moosajee said to the press that Steyn has apologized for the incident caused. They have filed a conduct charge on Sulieman Benn and it is in judicial process.
On the fourth day of the last test match, West Indian fast bowler Kemar Roach had done a unpleasant altercation in which even he was fined 50% of his match fee.

Hi all, last time when i gave my update on the third test match played between West Indies and South Africa, West Indies were playing their second batting innings on the third day of the test match. They had lost 7 wickets and had scored 134 runs thereby leading South Africa by 19 runs. Shivnarine Chanderpaul was unbeaten scoring a half century.
On the fourth day, West Indies lost 3 more wickets thereby they were all-out scoring a total of just 161 runs. Shivnarine Chanderpaul was unbeaten till the end scoring 71 runs consuming 179 deliveries. South Africans needed just 47 runs to win this match. This is supposed to be an cake-walk for them as they have 10 wickets, 1.75 days on hand. In 8.4 overs, South Africa chased its target by scoring 49 runs in total. South Africa won the match by 7 wickets. They have also won the series against the West Indies. Johan Botha was the best bowler from South Africa as he had taken 7 wickets in total with an economy rate of just 2.56 runs per over. He clinched the man of the match title.

New Zealands captain Daniel Vettori will not be playing the India, Srilanka series which will be taking place in August. The reason behind this is, he is going to become the daddy for his second child next month, so he wants to spend time with his family. In place of him, my favorite Ross Taylor will be captaining the team. Even Brendon McCullum will is playing as he is also becoming the father for his second child. Even he will be skipping this series.
