Preview
The five-match T20I series between West Indies and South Africa is hanging in balance at the moment. The Caribbean side blew away the Proteas with their power-hitting smacking 15 sixes while chasing 161. Many didn’t give any chance to South Africa to make a comeback in less than 24 hours.
However, pitch turned extremely slow and they managed to defend 166 in the second T20I comfortably. West Indies were restricted to 150 only thanks to superb bowling from George Linde and Tabraiz Shamsi. This T20I is crucial for both the sides as they will have advantage of taking the lead in the series.
