South Africa won by 8 wickets (with 14 balls remaining)
Gibbs' violent unbeaten 54-ball 90 has charged South Africa to a convincing victory. Gayle went berserk in the evening to power West Indies to a healthy total but Gibbs escalated the violence. He knifed through the line, pulled across the line and lofted a few to hasten the end.
