West Indies v South Africa - 3rd Test 1991/2 - Match Preview

West Indies v South Africa - 3rd Test 1991/2 - Match Preview

Port of Spain Trinidad

Pitch: 98 - An interesting wicket, multicoloured and patchy. The groundsman refuses to predict how long it will last, it is likely to favour the bowlers at some stage of the match. Most likely it will be the
spinners who benefit most, perhaps as early as the third day.

Weather: 2 - Hot and Sunny

West Indies XI:

D.L.Haynes, P.V.Simmons, R.B.Richardson (c), B.C.Lara, C.L.Hooper, K.L.T.Arthurton, D.Williams (wk), R.A.Harper, C.E.L.Ambrose, C.A.Walsh, B.P.Patterson

South Africa XI;

S.J.Cook, M.W.Rushmere, K.C.Wessels (c), P.N.Kirsten, W.J.Cronje, B.M.McMillan, D.J.Richardson (wk), C.R.Matthews, O.Henry, R.P.Snell, A.A.Donald

West Indies make two changes, replacing Adams with Hooper, and with pitch conditions in mind bringing in offpspinner Harper to replace paceman Winston Benjamin.
1-0 up, the South Africans have dominated on their tour so far and the West Indies begin the match as the team under most pressure.

Toss: West Indies
