South Africa opt to bowl v West Indies

Blue skies and sunshine greeted South Africa and West Indies for the second T20I at SuperSport Park. After Saturday' fixture was reduced to an 11-over-a-side shootout, Sunday's match is set to be a full 20-over affair with the hosts on the hunt to square the series. They chose to chase after losing the last four matches batting first at this venue.

West Indies benched Roston Chase, who was hit on the bowling arm by Sisanda Magala on Saturday, in favour of Raymon Reifer and brought Jason Holder in for Alzarri Joseph. Rovman Powell would have preferred to bowl first as well, on a pitch that appears harder than Saturday's surface and anticipated that a total of around 200 would be gettable.

South Africa: 1 Quinton de Kock (wk), 2 Reeza Hendricks, 3 Rilee Rossouw, 4 Aiden Markram (capt), 5 Heinrich Klaasen, 6 David Miller, 7 Wayne Parnell, 8 Sisanda Magala, 9 Marco Jansen, 10 Kagiso Rabada, 11 Tabraiz Shamsi
