JOHANNESBURG: Captain Temba Bavuma smashed a career-best 172 and Gerald Coetzee and Simon Harmer shared three wickets each as South Africa completed a 284-run victory over West Indies for a clean sweep of the two-match series at The Wanderers on Saturday .
"I think from the time we made the decision about the composition of the team , we were hoping the conditions would end up playing this way and fortunately we got it right," Bavuma said at the post-match presentation. South Africa started day four on 287 for seven with Bavuma seeking to record a maiden test double-century having reached three figures for only the second time in his 56-match career.
Fast bowler Kagiso Rabada , who has been troubled by a bad back in the last few days, picked up touring captain Kraigg Brathwaite for the fourth time in as many innings, and the visitors were soon reeling on 34-6.
