South Africa vs West Indies final T20

South Africa vs West Indies last T20 will be played tonight and this will be the series decider with the series level 2-2. West Indies will want to continue the momentum they have gained from the previous game and close the series out.

South Africa will want to address their batting problems in the middle and also find a way to fit in an all-rounder to balance the side better. Nortje fitness could be a question for this game after he got hit on the knee and this could be an opportunity for Lizard Williams. Williams could come in for Ngidi if Nortje is fit and Mulder or Phehlukwayo could also come in place of a batsman.

South Africa will also want to win this one so they will need to get their combination right if they are to do so.

West Indies Probable XI: 1. Lendl Simmons, 2. Evin Lewis, 3. Chris Gayle, 4. Shimron Hetmyer, 5. Kieron Pollard, 6. Nicholas Pooran, 7. Andre Russel, 8. Dwayne Bravo, 9.Akeal Hosein, 10. Obed McCoy, 11. Fidel Edwards

South Africa Probable XI: 1. Janman Malan, 2. Quinton de Kock, 3. Temba Bavuma, Aiden Markram, 5. Kyle Verreynne, 6 Wiaan Mulder,7. Goerge Linde,8. Andile Phehlukwayo/Bjorn Fortuin, 9 Kagiso Rabada, 10. Anrich Nortje/ Lizaard Williams, 11. Tabriz Shamsi

This is what I think the starting XI will look like for today's game. Do share your thoughts in the comment section.
