WI vs SA 3rd T20I Dream11 Prediction: After losing the Test series, the West Indies bounced back in the shortest format to clinch the T20I series against South Africa.
The Rovman Powell-led side defeated Aiden Markram’s team in the first two T20Is of the three-match series to seal another bilateral T20I series. This is, in fact, a third consecutive T20I series victory for the West Indies over South Africa, although they did lose to the Proteas in their Super Four clash at the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
The West Indies comprehensively outplayed the visitors in the first two T20Is. They won by seven wickets in the first game and followed it up with a 30-run victory in the second game.
West Indies vs South Africa 3rd T20I team news:
In this series, South Africa are lacking a number of stars who played in the T20 World Cup. Quinton de Kock, Anrich Nortje, Kagiso Rabada, Heinrich Klaasen, Keshav Maharaj, David Miller, Marco Jansen, and Tabraiz Shamsi have all been rested or unavailable from this series. And this has clearly affected the team’s performance.
The West Indies had rested Andre Russell, Jason Holder, and Alzarri Joseph from this series.
With the series already decided, both teams might give the benched players a chance in the third and last T20I.

West Indies vs South Africa 3rd T20I Dream11 Captaincy Prediction:
