South Africa

Defeating all its opponents in the last four matches India, Zimbabwe and the so called world’s best team Australia; is looking forward to lay a strong path for its campaign. Kallis back from injury and seemed relatively strong in the warm ups who will be accompanied by Hashim Amla, Graeme Smith and de Villiers in the middle order and person to look in the batting line up is Plessis who is in form.

On the bowling side, Steyn with 3 for 21 over Australia in the warm up’s a strong favorite for Thursday’s match too and Peterson too coming with a good form in Warm ups. Morkel in accompanying Steyn will be a strong decision of SA to control West Indies and other bowlers Tsotsobe who is in form, new bowler Imran Tahir will be a good chance for SA to conquer Indies line up.

West Indies

Under Sammy’s captaincy West Indies will go ahead on Thursday but the threat came in as they ruled out two of the important players Adrian Barath opener of the match and Carlton Bough the wicket keeper who sustained injuries which will be a big blow to the team. However, the experienced Chanderpaul may shoot up some unexpected results against proteas is also a good stance in the middle order.

Kemar Roach is expected to open the bowling spell with Andrew Russell which may not match up with Steyn and Morkel. On the spinning side Benn would be a decision to bang on for West Indies while Ravi and Bravo could make it an expensive affair.
