The West Indies bowlers had earlier defied a sixth first-class hundred of 104 from South Africa A captain Neil Brand and dismissed the home team for 250 in their second innings inside the final hour on another intriguing day’s play.
The 27-year-old left-handed opener struck 14 fours from 219 balls in almost six hours at the crease. Pacer Akeem Jordan was the most successful West Indies A bowler with 3-58 from 22 overs, while fellow pacers Shermon Lewis and Jayden Seales, and off-spinner Kevin Sinclair ended with two wickets apiece.
