South Africa National Cricket Team vs West Indies National Cricket Team Live Streaming and TV Telecast  Details: South Africa and West Indies return to the field today, 29 January, for the second match of their three-match T20 International series at SuperSport Park. The Proteas, led by an in-form Aiden Markram, enter the contest with a 1–0 lead and the opportunity to secure the series with a game to spare. For the West Indies, today’s fixture is a must-win encounter to keep their hopes alive before the final match in Johannesburg. UAE vs Ireland Free Live Cricket Streaming Online in India, 1st T20I 2026.

South Africa established their dominance in the series opener at Paarl, where they chased down a target of 174 with nine wickets in hand. Captain Aiden Markram was the standout performer, remaining unbeaten on 86, while Ryan Rickelton and Lhuan-dre Pretorius provided a blistering start. The Proteas’ bowling unit, spearheaded by George Linde and Keshav Maharaj, successfully stifled the Caribbean middle order, leaving the visitors struggling to find a rhythm.

The hosts may look to rotate their squad today, with rested stars such as Quinton de Kock and Tristan Stubbs potentially returning to the XI. A win today would mark a significant boost for South Africa as they finalise their combinations for the T20 World Cup starting next month.

The West Indies arrive at Centurion needing a vastly improved performance from their top order. Despite resilient knocks from Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell in the first game, the visitors failed to capitalise on a decent start. Stand-in captain Roston Chase noted the need for better execution in the powerplay, both with the bat and the ball. Why India ‘A’ Features in T20 World Cup 2026 Warm-Up Schedule.

The visitors are hopeful that regular captain Shai Hope will be fit to return for this crucial clash. His inclusion would bolster a batting lineup that struggled to handle the South African spinners in the opening match. Historically, West Indies hold a slight 14–13 edge in T20I head-to-head records against South Africa, a statistic they will be keen to improve upon today.

SuperSport Park is renowned for its pace and bounce, typically favouring fast bowlers in the early stages while offering high-scoring opportunities for batters once they are set. With the match beginning at 18:00 local time, the evening air often aids swing, but the dry surface is expected to remain firm throughout the duration of the play.
