WI vs RSA Team Previews

West Indies

The West Indies had their moments where they competed with England, but ultimately failed to stay in the fight for long enough. They suffered a three-nil loss to England in England. They will now return to Test cricket in the Caribbean.

Kraigg Brathwaite showed his leadership opening the batting in the previous Test at Port of Spain against India. He scored a very patient 75 runs off 235 balls in the first innings.

Shamar Joseph will go down in West Indies Test folklore for his memorable bowling performances down under in his debut Test series. The West Indian pacer took seven for 68 in Brisbane.

Jayden Seales has been a tricky customer for South Africa before. The young West Indies quick took three wickets against them in his debut Test bowling innings. He was the second-highest wicket-taker in the Test series against England with 13 wickets.

West Indies Playing 11

Kraigg Brathwaite, Mikyle Louis, Alick Athanaze, Keacy Carty, Kavem Hodge, Jason Holder, Joshua Da Silva, Gudakesh Motie, Kemar Roach, Jayden Seales, Jomel Warrican.

South Africa

Contrary to the West Indies who last played Test cricket only a week ago, South Africa last played a Test match in February. Although, most of this particular group last played in December 2023. The second-string South African side lost the team's previous Test series away from home in New Zealand.

Kagiso Rabada will be dangerous with the new red-ball in hand. His eight most recent Test matches have shown his world-class bowling attributes in the format. Rabada has 39 wickets in his previous eight Tests.

Temba Bavuma has been one of the most dominant Test batters for the Proteas in recent years. In his last six Test matches, he has scored 385 runs with a batting average just over 40.

Aiden Markram will also be a Proteas batter looking to impose himself on the West Indies bowlers. He has averaged just over 55 with the willow in his last four Test matches.

South Africa Playing 11

Tony de Zorzi, Aiden Markram, Tristan Stubbs, Temba Bavuma, David Bedingham, Ryan Rickelton, Kyle Verreynne, Wiaan Mulder, Keshav Maharaj, Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi.

WI vs RSA Toss Prediction

This Test match will be played as a five-day game at Queen's Park Oval during the day.

The previous toss in a Test match in Port of Spain was won by the West Indies who elected to field first.

The teams may use the predicted rainy weather conditions as an indicator to bowl first.

Read our guide on toss predictions to learn how we analyze and come up with our tips.

Pitch and Conditions

All five days are expected to experience rain. There is a 70 percent chance of rain on days one, two and five. There is an 80 percent chance of rain on days three and four. Temperatures will be extremely hot and humid.

The West Indies scored 255 all out in their first innings of their previous Test at Port of Spain.

Traditionally, the West Indies' surfaces provide good bowling conditions for the seamers. That could be elevated with the expected wet conditions.

WI vs RSA Betting Tips

The West Indies will be much happier playing in familiar home conditions after a tough tour to England.

South Africa will put out a quality side away from home with numerous world-class cricketers in their ranks.

South Africa would be favoured in a match where the bowling of both sides could be quite even, but South Africa's batting could edge their hosts.

Ultimately, the weather could have the biggest say over the course of the five days and this one may peter out to a damp draw.
