Preview

South Africa (SA) will be hosting West Indies (WI) in the first ODI match at East London's Buffalo Park on March 16. South Africa won the two-match Test series at home against West Indies with a dominant performance and are favorites to win the upcoming three-match ODI series. This will be the first West Indies ODI series under the leadership of Shai Hope since the latter's appointment as full-time captain. Shannon Gabriel and Roston Chase are returning to the ODI setup after some time, with the latter last playing ODIs in January last year. Temba Bavuma-led side is facing a few injury issues ahead of the first ODI. Keshav Maharaj and Wiaan Mulder are ruled out with injuries and are replaced by Tabraiz Shamsi and Wayne Parnell. After their recent involvement in Tests, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, and Aiden Markram are not part of the ODIs.
