Next up in the ICC T20 World Cup is a double header Tuesday. The first game will be played between South Africa and West Indies. Both sides lost their opening encounters on Saturday. While SA put up a strong fight while defending a low score of 119, it was more of a one way affair in the ENG vs WI game.
Both sides have a great squad at their disposal. Being clubbed in a group of some of the best sides of the world, any slipups from here would heavily dent their chances of a semi-final place. With both sides looking to get their campaign on track, a thrilling contest awaits us in Dubai.

SA vs WI Pitch Report:
As we have seen from the recent game between IND and PAK, the pitch at the Dubai International Stadium has been a good one to bat on. Some swing will be available especially in the initial overs. Batsmen will need to bide some time in the middle before going for the big shots.
A score of around 160-170 runs would be a fighting total at this venue. Both the teams will be field first upon winning the toss. This being an evening game, dew will not be a factor here.
