About WI vs SA 2024
West Indies is set to tour South Africa for a month, starting from 28 Feb 2023 to 28 Mar 2023. During this time, both teams will lock horns in a 2-match Test series, 3-match ODI series, and a 3-match T20I series. West Indies vs South Africa battle will begin with 2 match Test series that will be part of the ongoing ICC Test Championship followed by WI vs SA three-match ODI series and 3 T20Is
West Indies and South Africa have had some memorable match-ups in the past like the 2015 ODI World Cup where AB de Villiers smoked the Windies bowlers all over the park in a quick-fired century. We can expect a great month of cricketing action between the two sides across all three formats, and it’s surely going to be a fierce contest between bat and ball.
South Africa and West Indies have faced each other in 30 Tests. The Proteas have had the upper hand with 20 victories in comparison to the West Indies winning only 3 matches and 7 ending in a draw. For the ODIs, South Africa has won 44 while West Indies managed to secure a victory on 15 occasions. In the shortest format as well, South Africa has had a dominating hold over the West Indies with 10 wins out of the 16 T20Is.
But the series starting in February is a fresh start where West Indies can make a comeback and outshine South Africa. However, it won’t be easy to beat them in their own backyard. Whatever the result may turn out to be, one thing is guaranteed, power-packed matches of cricket!
