Just had to set the game up: Nicholas Pooran

After smashing 65 runs off 26 balls, Nicholas Pooran was given the Player of the Match award. It was an incredible innings that helped West Indies beat the hosts in their backyard. After a disappointing Test series, this win was extremely important for the West Indies players. At the presentation, Pooran praised Stubbs's batting performance and was elated on their win. 

"I felt Athanaze and Hope played well. Just had to set the game up. I took on my match-ups. The first 10 overs were tricky when SA were batting. But Stubbs and Kruger played well. We always knew we had a chance," said Nicholas Pooran at the post-match presentation.
