WI vs SA Match Predictions for the 1st T20 International

South Africa and West Indies will lock horns in the 1st T20I of South Africa tour to the West Indies. The game will begin at the National Cricket Stadium in St George’s, Grenada. I have collated the top WI vs SA match predictions and betting tips from the game for you.

West Indies did not fare well against South Africa in the two test matches played by the teams. South Africa showed a class that West Indies could not compare to in the game and South Africa ended up winning both matches. The T20 section consists of 5 games between the teams and West Indies should be able to slip in one victory from the games. West Indies won 3 of the last 5 head to head matches against South Africa, but these games took place in 2015 and 2016 and the teams haven’t played since. Temba Bavuma has been christened the new skipper of the West Indies team, and his skills are going to be under duress in the matches. I have picked the top WI vs SA match predictions so you can win money from the game.
