West Indies vs South Africa: Prediction [T20 WC 2024] – Best Bets
South Africa and West Indies have won 11 matches each against each other in T20Is. Who will take the lead? Here are the best bets for this West Indies vs South Africa match.
West Indies top bowler – Akeal Hosein – 10Cric @4.1, BET HERE
Akeal Hosein has been brilliant with the new ball so far. He picks up wickets as well apart from keeping things right and can become West Indies top bowler.
West Indies total fours – Under 11.5- 1xBet @3, BET HERE
West Indies generally don’t believe in hitting fours and they prefer smacking it over the top. Hence, it is very much possible that they will hit less than 11 fours.
South Africa to win the match – Parimatch @1.94, BET HERE
Given the winning momentum and luck they have, South Africa are expected to win this match by a slender margin.

Head-to-Head Record West Indies vs South Africa
West Indies and South Africa have won 11 matches each against each other in T20Is.
West Indies
A loss to England has hurt West Indies. But their massive win over the USA means that they only need to win against South Africa to make it to last four. A loss will knock West Indies out of the World Cup.
South Africa
South Africa cannot afford to lose this match by more than 10 runs if they are to qualify for the semifinal. They are unbeaten so far in the tournament but both their wins in Super 8 round were close enough which keeps their net run-rate not high enough.
