South Africa vs West Indies Quinton de Kock

Quinton de Kock produced a stunning series-clinching century to power South Africa to a seven-wicket win over West Indies in the second T20I at Centurion.

Using a borrowed bat, De Kock smashed a career-best 115 off 49 balls as South Africa chased down 221 with 15 balls to spare. Ryan Rickelton supported him with an unbeaten 77 in a match-winning stand of 162. Earlier, West Indies rode on fifties from Shimron Hetmyer and Sherfane Rutherford.

The victory handed South Africa an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
