South Africa, replying to West Indies' first inning total of 225, were reduced to 141 all out on the second day of the Fifth and final Test at Sabina Park on Friday.

With the West Indies reaching 34 without loss in their second innings at the close of play, South Africa were left trailing by 118 runs on a day that saw 11 wickets fall.

The tourists were in trouble early and stood precariously at 77-5 when rain forced the players off the field for an early tea break.

Shortly after, South African captain Shaun Pollock became only the eighth player in Test history to complete the double of 2000 runs and 200 wickets.

Mervyn Dillon who cleaned up the tail with figures of four for 32, was ably supported by the other seamers with Courtney Walsh finishing with three for 31.

Courtney Walsh had led a spirited West Indies attack in the morning.

Walsh added to his world-record haul of Test wickets as South Africa reached 24 for one at lunch.

After becoming the final victim of West Indies' first innings total of 225 - and a fifth wicket for Shaun Pollock - Walsh conjured a prompt response by removing Gary Kirsten for a duck.

Kirsten followed a short, rising but wide delivery to be caught by Chris Gayle at third slip.

Supreme contribution

It was Walsh's 514th Test wicket in his 132nd and final Test.

The West Indies Cricket Board have responded to his imminent retirement by praising his immense contribution to cricket in the Caribbean.

"The WICB wishes to salute the supreme contribution of one of the icons of West Indies and international cricket," said WICB president Pat Rousseau and chief executive officer Gregory Shillingford in a joint statement.

"He has been one of the greatest ambassadors for the West Indies and for the game and is loved, admired and respected world-wide, both for his wicket-taking prowess and for his affable personality.

"The field of play will not be the same without this veteran fast bowler who has proudly worn the maroon cap for 17 years.

"His dedication and commitment to excellence, his attitude and team spirit, his attention to fitness, and his belief in fair play are fine qualities which young sports persons would do well to adopt.

"There can be no finer role model for West Indian youth than Courtney Andrew Walsh."
