SA vs WI, T20 World Cup 2026: South Africa and the West Indies will meet in a Super 8 match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 on Thursday. Both teams have started the Super 8 phase of the tournament with convincing victories with South Africa beating India, while the West Indies overcame Zimbabwe. A win for either team will greatly improve their semi-final chances.
South Africa will enter the match on the back of a convincing 76-run victory over India in Ahmedabad. The South African bowling lineup of Marco Jansen, Keshav Maharaj, Kagiso Rabada, and Lungi Ngidi was too good for India as they were bundled out for 111 chasing 188.
The West Indies, on the other hand, will enter the match on the back of a comprehensive 107-run victory over Zimbabwe in Mumbai. This has shown the West Indies' strong batting lineup and their ability to score large totals.
The result of this match may also affect India's chances. A victory for the West Indies will increase their chances of entering the semi-finals, and India will then have to win their remaining matches convincingly to make it to the semi-finals.
