Wessels-Kapil skirmish as

South Africans go 2-0 up
PORT ELIZABETH. South Africa. Dec IO: Indian allrounder Kapil Dev was at the centre of two sto-
rms on Wednesday as South Africa won the eventful second day-night one-day International here by six wickets to take a 2-0 lead in the seven-match scries, reports AFP.
The South Africans, who won Monday's first international in Cape Town by a similar margin, bowled the Indians out in the afternoon for a paltry 147 and won with 21 deliveries to spare after a dramatic final session.
Watched by a capacity crowd of over 19,000 at the floodlit St. George s Park, Kapil ran out Peter Kirsten for back-
"It is preposterous to doubt Kapil's sportsmanship and commitment to the values of the game," Mathur said.
The act was valid when the batsman was repeatedly seen to be taking advantage and had been warned on two previous occasions.
"It was sufficient warning not only for Kirsten but also for the other batsmen," Mathur said.
Asked what Kirsten had told him, Mathur replied: " He told me he was not a cheat. 1 said that no one was accusing him of being a cheat, but he had been warned before."
South African coach Mike Procter decline to comment on the controversy while the match was on. but refused to believe Wessels had hit Kapil.
Callaghan and Hansie Cronje put South Africa on the road to ' victory with an unbroken 78-run stand for the fifth wicket
The 27-year-old Callaghan, playing only his second International. survived a first-ball miss by wicket-keeper Kiran More, to make 45 not out with four boundaries.
Cronje, South Africa's man-of-the-match' In Cape Town, continued his good form with an attractive 38 not out to leave India rueing an indifferent performance with the bat.
ing down too far at the non-striker s end before the ball had been delivered.
Kapil, a veteran of 192 internationals. had warned Kirsten twice before for similar offences in the second Test in Johannesburg and the Cape Town International.
The South Africans were not pleased.
Captain Kepler Wessels, who was batting at the other end, gave the 33-year-old Kapil the two-finger salute and Kirsten argued with the bowler before walking slowly back to the pavilion.
Three deliveries later, Wessels appeared to have hit Kapil's knee with the bat while turning for a second run, forcing the allrounder to buckle down In pain.
Wessels brushed aside protests from the Indians , as umpire Cyril Mitchely, who had declared Kristen out, appealed for calm.
Indian manager Amrit Mathur, whom Kirsten confronted outside the dressing room, said later he had not watched the second incident but cleared Kapil of any wrongdoing in the first.
This Is news. to me, I don't think such a thing happened," Procter said, when queried by reporters in the press box during the match.
The incidents marred a keen contest as the Indians fought back in the field after a poor batting display.
Left-handed opener Raman top-scored with 33 followed by useful contributions from Praveen Amre (30) and Kiran More (32), but the others failed miserably.
Three batsmen ran themselves out while attempting quick singles and six railed to get into double figures on a wicket where the ball tended to keep low at times.
The South Africans themselves began on the wrong foot losing Andrew Hudson (five), Kirsten (five) and Jonty Rhodes (13) for 46 by the 19th over.
Wessels looked dangerous while making 30 off 77 balls, but ten top-edged a pull of Manoj Prabhakar for Ajay Jadeja to take the skier at square-leg.
South Africa were atop a powderkeg at 70 for four in the 29th over, but Dave
