Unfazed by their first Test defeat in Centurion, West Indies are seeking an improved performance, especially from their batsmen, as they look to win the second Test at the Wanderers starting Wednesday, and avoid their ninth straight Test series defeat to South Africa.The Caribbean side found themselves in with a chance on the third day of the opening Test when they mowed the hosts down for 116 in their second innings, but the resulting target of 247 proved beyond West Indies, the run chase collapsing just after tea for 159, to leave them with an 87-run loss.Vice-captain Jermaine Blackwood, who counter-attacked in a top score of 79, was the only batsman to pass 20 and was just one of two in the top six to reach double figures.The underwhelming performance left captain Kraigg Brathwaite on Tuesday urging his batting group to show “clarity” in their approach.“I think it shows we aren’t far off. Obviously South Africa is a tough team at home as normal, and it goes to show that with a little more application especially for the batters – myself included – we could do well here in these conditions,” Brathwaite said of the experience in the opening Test.“It gave us that belief that we can do it and we’ve just got to keep believing, and it doesn’t matter which team we play in the world, we’ve always got to believe. We had a lot of positives in the first Test and we have to just keep improving.”
