Proteas stopped rain in first ODI against Windies

South Africa will have to wait a couple more days before they can get stuck in the West Indies squad after the first of three One-Day International (ODI) matches took place in East London on Thursday.

After defeating the tourists in the test series with a score of 2:0 protea there will be two more one-day international (ODI) matches against the Windies. They will then play three T20 International tournaments.

While four players have had the opportunity to earn their ODI debuts for the Proteas – fast bowler Gerald Coetzee, ace batsman Tony de Zorzi and goaltender/batsmen Ryan Rickelton and Tristan Stubbs – they will all have to wait for match two and will also be played at Buffalo Park on Saturday.

While cooler weather is expected this weekend, weather forecasts suggest there is less chance of rain and the match should proceed as planned.
