South Africa Preview

South Africa are coming off 48 run loss to the visitors in the 2nd ODI at East London. With the 1st ODI being washed out without a ball being bowled. Windies have the edge over Proteas. Temba Bavuma’s return to form as captain is a huge positive for the team. Quinton de Kock played a quick fire knock of 48 runs in 26 balls at a strike rate of 184.62.

The middle order is inexperienced with Rassie van der Dussen being the most expereicned. Proteas are missing their senior players David Miller, Heinrich Klassen in the middle order. Their main bowlers Anrich Nortje, Kagiso Rabada are not part of the squad.

Gerald Coetzee was the lone bright spot along side young lanky allrounder Marco Jensen. Coetzee picked up 3 wickets in the 2nd ODI at an economy of 5.7. Marco Jensen was tad on the expensive side He scored 17 runs at a strike rate of 121.43. Jensen will be key to the Proteas success in the 3rd ODI.

With the World Cup Super League points up for grabs the 3rd ODI is crucial for the home team against the Windies. A loss here will further diminish their direct chances of qualification for the World Cup.

West Indies Preview

West Indies are off to a good start under their new captain Shai Hope. Shai Hope led the team from the front with a match winning knock of 128* in 115 balls. Every batsman in the team got starts in the 2nd ODI but failed to tun it into big scores.

Their batting order now has depth with Nicolas Pooran and Rovman Powell as the main stayers in the middle order. All-rounders Jason Holder, Akeal Hosein and Odean Smith add the much needed depth to their batting order.

Spinners Yannic Caraih and Akeal Hosein will be key in the 3rd ODI as the proteas batters often struggle against leg and left arm spinners.

The Windies bowlers were on target against the Proteas in the 2nd ODI. Shai Hope will be aiming to clinch the series by winning the 3rd ODI at Serwes Park on 21st March. The series win will bolster West Indies chances of direct qualification to the World Cup later this year.
