LAST MEETING

THE PREDICTION

The West Indies’ batting crumbled in the face of some top class South African bowling in the first Test between these two nations, leading to victory for the Proteas by 87 runs with their first innings score of 342 a defining total across the game. Aiden Markram struck a century opening the batting and will be hoping this leads to an extended run of good form across the red ball game. However, South Africa will be weakened in the second Test without injured fast bowler Anrich Nortje, who took a five-wicket-haul during West Indies’ first innings. Despite the loss of Nortje, the hosts can still call upon an excellent unit of bowlers and the option to play two spinners at the Wanderers is very live. West Indies will more than likely struggle again with the bat and backing South Africa to record a 2-0 series win has to be favoured.
