Summary

However, in overall head to head matches South Africa is way ahead of the West Indies. Their matches have always been one of the record breakers in the history of cricket. Both of the teams are known for their explosive batting lineup. But, recently South Africa seems to be struggling with their best playing 11. We hope that South Africa finds their phase again soon to make competitions astonishing again.
