WI vs SA Dream11 Match Prediction, Fantasy Tips, Playing11, Captain, Vice-Captain for Windies vs South Africa 1st T20I – WI vs SA Match Preview: The first of the five T20Is between Windies and South Africa will be played at National Cricket Stadium, St George’s in Grenada on Saturday night.
The visitors sealed the two-match test series by 2-0 and will be looking to replicate the same in the shortest format also. South Africa’s 2-0 series win against Windies was their first success in the five away series since they won in New Zealand in March 2017. They will be flying high on confidence and will be looking to set the tone with a win in the first T20I on Saturday.
Moreover, South Africa has a 6-4 lead over Windies in a total of ten T20Is played between both sides and it will be interesting to watch if they manage to main their overall lead with five games coming up.
Windies, meanwhile, have named an 18-man strong squad for the back-to-back T20I campaigns against South Africa, Australia, and Pakistan. Star all-rounder Andre Russell returns to the squad after almost two years of gap. Sheldon Cottrell, Shimron Hetmyer, Oshane Thomas, and Hayden Walsh Jr are the other additions to the squad. Windies last played a T20I against Sri Lanka in March in which they registered a 2-1 victory.
With the ICC T20 World Cup just around the corner, both teams will be looking at these five T20Is crucial in terms of their preparation. The match will begin at 11:30 PM IST.
