On February 28, the West Indies will begin their South African tour. There will be three Twenty20 Internationals, three One-Day Internationals, and two Test matches between these two teams. Centurion is scheduled to host the first Test, and Johannesburg is scheduled to host the second.
Temba Bavuma will lead the South African team, and Kraigg Brathwaite will lead the West Indies team. Jason Holder, Roston Chase, and Jermaine Blackwood are among the West Indies team’s most important players, while Dean Elgar, Keshav Maharaj, and Kagiso Rabada are among the South African team’s most important players.

South Africa vs West Indies Prediction :
In their most recent Test series against Australia in December and January, South Africa had a difficult time. However, they can anticipate even greater domestic success in this series under the new leadership.
Although West Indies will compete, it may be difficult for them to surpass a very strong South African bowling attack. We are backing South Africa to win, even though we anticipate a close contest going into the fifth day.
The odds are stacked against West Indies.
