South Africa vs West Indies, 3rd T20I: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Weather Forecast, Pitch Report, and Live Streaming Details

South Africa and West Indies are set to lock horns in the third and final game of their three-match T20I series on Tuesday, March 28. The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg will host the contest.

After two high-scoring matches in Centurion, South Africa and West Indies have all to play for at the Wanderers, with the series currently level at 1-1. After the Caribbean team won the series opener by three wickets, they looked good to win the second match as well.

On Sunday, Rovman Powell’s men racked up a humongous score of 258 for the loss of five wickets. Johnson Charles broke Chris Gayle’s record of the fastest T20I century by a West Indies batter. Charles got to his hundred off 39 balls and hit 11 sixes in his knock.

Kyle Mayers and Romario Shepherd lent Charles support with knocks of 51 and 41 not out, respectively. Marco Jansen picked up three wickets, but leaked 52 runs. Sisanda Magala had a terrible day in the office as he conceded 67 runs and failed to pick up a wicket.

While it seemed that West Indies would claim the series 2-0, South Africa pulled off the highest successful run-chase in T20 cricket. The Proteas chased down the target with seven balls to spare. Quinton de Kock became the Player of the Match after scoring a 43-ball hundred.
