It will be imperative that both sides improve upon their batting as they seek to register their first points in the group. Put in to bat, both sides struggled to put runs on the board.
West Indies were skittled for just 55 runs while the Proteas were a touch better, managing 118 in 20 overs thanks to Aiden Makram’s 36-ball 40. South Africa will head into the clash with the psychology advantage, having inflicted a series defeat on the West Indies at home earlier this year.
