Keshav Maharaj injured celebrating wicket, video, reaction, South Africa v West Indies, second Test result

Fast bowler Kagiso Rabada struck twice with three balls, sparking a West Indies meltdown on day four of the second Test against South Africa at Wanderers Stadium.

Spinners Simon Harmer and Keshav Maharaj also took two wickets each as the West Indies plummeted to 34 for six at lunch after going on to win by 391.

West Indian openers Kraigg Brathwaite and Tagearine Chanderpaul survived to the 11th before Brathwaite was the leg before the wicket for Rabada for 18. Two balls later, Raymon Reifer gloved a catch on the side of the leg to wicketkeeper Heinrich Klaasen.

Four more wickets fell to the spinners in the next 8.1 overs. Off-spinner Harmer shared the new ball with Rabada and extracted an extravagant spin, catching Chanderpaul on the second slip after the left-hander faced 36 balls and scored just two runs.

Roston Chase, Jermaine Blackwood and Kyle Mayers all fell cheaply, with South Africa’s only setback coming after Maharaj won a successful pre-wicket leg appeal against Mayers in the last over before lunch.

While celebrating, the spinner collapsed his left arm and was carried off the field with what appeared to be a tendon injury in his left ankle.

South Africa were previously eliminated with 321 points, with captain Temba Bavuma adding just one run to his 171 points overnight before being caught on the deep square leg by Jason Holder.
