To reach the semi-finals, Windies will accept nothing less than a win against SA

New Delhi. Host West Indies and South Africa, captained by Rovman Powell, will clash in their last match of the Super 8 on Monday. Windies need to win this match at all costs to make it to the T20 World Cup 2024 semi-finals. After losing to England in the first match of the Super Eight stage, West Indies defeated co-host USA by 9 wickets. Now with a win, their entry into the last four will be confirmed, while a loss will decide the net run rate. And that too if USA defeats England in the second match.

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

Kyle Myers is also waiting for his/her turn
Kyle Myers is also waiting for his/her turn. he/she may be given a chance considering his/her excellent performance against South Africa before SA 20 and World Cup. Roston Chase said in the press conference before the match, ‘Whenever we perform well in the powerplay, we win the match. Now the focus will be that bowling and batting should be good in the powerplay.’ On the other hand, South Africa does not seem to be full of confidence despite winning all the matches. Novice teams like America and Nepal gave it 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 which is good to see.’ For South Africa, Quinton de Kock and Reeza Hendricks have taken the responsibility of scoring runs while Enrique Norkia and Keshav have been successful in bowling. West Indies also have excellent spinners like Akil Hussain, Gudakesh Moti and Chase who will be responsible for stopping the run rate in the middle overs.
