The West Indies cricket team is all set to lock horns against South Africa in the upcoming three matches of the T20I series set to commence on August 24 at Brian Lara Cricket Academy. After a 1-0 loss to South Africa in the ICC World Test Championship series, the hosts will be aiming to continue their magnificent run in the T20Is as they set to face the Proteas camp.
Notably, the West Indies have won four of their last five bilateral T20I series and missed out on their berth in the semi-final of the 2024 T20 World Cup at home after losing to South Africa in the Super Eight fixture. On the other hand, Aiden Markram and his men managed to defeat Afghanistan in the semi-final showdown, but Team India outclassed them in the final thriller to win the showpiece event.

Meanwhile, the West Indies side will be without all-rounders Jason Holder and Andre Russell for the three matches of the T20I series against South Africa at home, with a strong squad led by Rovman Powell. In addition to this, the roaster is strengthened by the additions of Alick Athanaze and Matthew Forde.
On the other hand, a relatively inexperienced Proteas side will be facing the West Indies in the upcoming series, with a lot of big names like Quinton de Kock, Kagiso Rabada, Keshav Maharaj, Tabraiz Shamsi, and David Miller missing from the squad. Notably, the Proteas last stint in the T20Is saw them reach the final of the 2024 T20 World Cup. Aiden Markram and his men had an unbeaten run before losing to Team India in the summit clash.
