After equalling Malcolm Marshall's record of 376 wickets before lunch, when he had opener Adam Bacher caught behind for one, the 36-year-old Walsh had to wait until the third over of his second spell to overtake his fellow fast bowler.

Kallis became his record victim when Stuart Williams took a brilliant diving catch to his right at second slip as the South African attempted to drive off the back foot.

Walsh raised his arms in triumph and was enthusiastically congratulated by his teammates before signalling to the dressing-rooms where Marshall, who is now West Indies coach, warmly applauded him.

Two overs later Walsh grabbed his third wicket when Daryll Cullinan got a faint edge to a legside delivery to give debutant 'keeper Ridley Jacobs his second catch of the day.

Walsh was applauded by his teammates when they left the field for tea, with South Africa on 138 for three, still 123 runs behind the West Indies first innings total of 261.

Opener Gary Kirsten was batting on 57 alongwith captain Hansie Cronje (6).

Earlier, South Africa's Shaun Pollock took five wickets in an innings for the sixth time of his Test career as the tourists added just 12 runs to their overnight 249 for seven.

Pollock took five for 54 in 23 overs to take his Test wicket tally to 96 while Allan Donald finished with three for 91 in 23 overs.

Pollock had left-handers Nixon McLean and Curtly Ambrose caught behind by wicketkeeper Mark Boucher while Donald, who had McLean dropped by Gary Kirsten at fine leg in the over before the tailender was dismissed, had Rawl.
