WI vs SA: To reach the semi-finals, Windies will not accept anything less than victory, fight to the death with South Africa

New Delhi. The host West Indies and South Africa teams, captained by Rovman Powell, will clash in their last match of Super 8 on Monday. To make it to the T20 World Cup 2024 semi-finals, Windies must win this match at any cost. After losing to England in the first match of the Super Eight stage, West Indies defeated co-host America by 9 wickets. Now with a win, its entry into the last four will be decided, while with a loss, the matter will go to the net run rate. And that too if America beats England in the second match.

On the other hand, South Africa (WI vs SA) has won all 6 matches so far. But he also needs to win. If they lose, their reaching the last four will also depend on the results of the remaining matches and net run rate. However, the picture will be clear before the match for both the teams. The West Indies team had failed to rotate the strike against England. But he overcame this shortcoming against America. Shai Hope scored 82 runs in 39 balls and apart from him, Nicholas Pooran and Andre Russell are also adept at aggressive batting in the death overs.

Kyle Myers is also waiting for his turn
Kyle Myers is also waiting for his turn. Considering his excellent performance against South Africa before the SA20 and World Cup, he may be given a chance. Roston Chase said in the pre-match press conference, ‘Whenever we perform well in the powerplay, we win the match. Right now the focus will be that bowling and batting should be good in powerplay. On the other hand, South Africa is not looking full of confidence despite winning all the matches. Novice teams like America and Nepal had given him a tough time.

 

‘If we look at all the previous World Cups, we have lost many close matches’
South African spinner Keshav Maharaj said, ‘If we look at all the previous World Cups, we have lost many close matches. This time we are winning them over, which feels good to see. For South Africa, Quinton de Kock and Reeza Hendricks have played the responsibility of scoring runs, while Enrique Norcia and Keshav have been successful in bowling. West Indies also have good spinners like Akil Hussain, Gudakesh Moti and Chase, who will be responsible for stopping the run rate in the middle overs.
