Pre-Match Analysis:
In a rain-shortened game, South Africa was thumped by visiting West Indies in the 1st T20I by 3 wickets. David Miller’s powerful hitting kept them going as they reached a good enough score of 131 runs at the end of 11 overs. The bowlers took the blow right throughout the 2nd half and weren’t able to defend the competitive score. Sisanda Magala had a memorable game with both bat and ball which is the major takeaway from the first game. It’s a do-or-die game for them to stay in the series.
A ruthless hitting from Rovman Powell was just enough for West Indies to secure a win in the 1st T20I with 3 balls to spare. Brandon King and Johnson Charles too played aggressive knocks upfront which needs to be applauded. It is indeed a much-needed victory for them as they are reshaping their side under the new leadership roles. They have got the right kickoff into this series and are a one-win away from wrapping up the series.
