The 50th match of the T20 World Cup 2024 will be played on Monday at Antigua’s Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, as the West Indies face South Africa. South Africa is currently on a six-game tournament winning streak. West Indies rebounded with a victory over the United States after losing their Super Eight opener to England. This match is critical for the Windies, who need a victory to keep their semi-final hopes alive. Although England defeated the United States, the West Indies controlled their own fate. A win over South Africa ensures their progression because they have a higher net run rate.

West Indies have taken four of their last five Twenty20 Internationals against South Africa. The Proteas are coming off a terrific winning streak. Their bowlers are in top form and will undoubtedly test the West Indian batters. However, the West Indies are playing at home and understand that this is a virtual knockout game for them. A win here will advance them to the semifinals, so we expect them to go all out. On current form, South Africa appears to have the lead in this match, but we believe the West Indies, with their regional advantage and big hitters, will seize the opportunity and win. Considering the team combination, West Indies are expected to win this match.
