AB de Villiers, Imran Tahir Subject West Indies to Massive Defeat
Fri, Feb 27, '15
Sydney: Skipper AB de Villiers hammered the fastest 150 in ODI history as he led South Africa to a record-equalling 257-run win over the West Indies in a Pool B cricket World Cup match, here on Friday.
Thanks to a sensational 66-ball 162 from de Villiers, South Africa posted World Cup's second-highest total of 408 for five and then inflicted further humiliation on the Caribbean side by skittling them out for a measly 151 in 33.1 overs.(Scorecard | Highlights)
Leg-spinner Imran Tahir returned career-best figures of five for 45 to add insult to the West Indies injury.
