Once more into the breach, says Hooper

West Indies skipper Carl Hooper exhorted his players to make a supreme effort this Wednesday, in the fourth ODI of the seven game series, following back to back defeats to South Africa over the weekend that left the Windies trailing 3-1.

"We now need to win three straight games and that is a big ask, we have to keep positive and back ourselves," Hooper said.

The fifth match of the best-of-seven series takes place in Barbados on Wednesday. South Africa needs just one win in three games to wrap up the series.

"We have only three games to go," said Proteas skipper Shaun Pollock. "There will be no let up, we want to end the tour on a high."
