South Africa secured a 40-run victory over the West Indies in the second Test match, marking their 10th consecutive Test series win against the Caribbean side. Keshav Maharaj became South Africa's most successful spinner in Test history, achieving a remarkable 171 wickets during this series. Despite a strong bowling performance from Jayden Seales, who claimed six wickets in the second innings, the West Indies fell short of the 263-run target, collapsing to 222 all out. The match was characterized by a lack of significant batting performances, with no centuries scored across the series. South Africa's bowlers thrived on a challenging pitch, while their batting was bolstered by half-centuries from Aiden Markram and Kyle Verreynne. This victory underscores South Africa's dominance in Test cricket against the West Indies since their first encounter in 1998/99.
