In a thrilling conclusion to their four-day unofficial Test match, Kevin Sinclair played the role of hero as he scored an unbeaten half-century, guiding West Indies A to a nail-biting one-wicket victory over South Africa A in Benoni on Friday.

Facing a challenging situation with the tourists at 104-5, Sinclair showcased immense patience and skill, accumulating 80 crucial runs to secure the win for West Indies A, reaching 224-9 in 80.4 overs.

 The day began with West Indies resuming their innings at eight without loss, with Tagenarine Chanderpaul on one and Zachary McCaskie on five. Unfortunately, McCaskie failed to add to his overnight score, becoming the first victim of Mihlali Mpongwana, who claimed three wickets in the inning. Chanderpaul and Kirk McKenzie formed a useful partnership for the second wicket, but it was disrupted when Dane Piedt dismissed McKenzie for 36, leaving the score at 75-2. The West Indies A faced a quick succession of wickets, with Mpongwana dismissing Chanderpaul for 35 and removing Kavem Hodge for 12, bringing the team to 104-4.

Very well done. Kudos to McAllister as well for not losing his head

Great fighting display, think it would wrong to underestimate the role of Josh in this teams performances.
Appears to support and be very encouraging to the young players.
Always having little chats but never appears to be forcing himself, exactly the type of captain a young team needs

Oh boy, here it goes.
I will do what many should do on this tread,
that is: Congrats to Wondies A team.
Especially Sinclair who demonstrated a good attitude throughout the match.
4 Wickets,
over 100 runs
one catch
and some pretty good fielding.
Overall, showed composure at the wicket in both innings.

Well done my yute.

May you continue throughout the tour and make is to the highest level.

Congrats to the WI, Sinclair should be in the WI squad to Australia, he is one of the few regional players who improves his performances over the years.

Sinclair had proven himself that he should have already been selected into the Wi team, instead they persisted with players like talentless Reefa.
