West Indies Preview
Kraigg Brathwaite's team suffered a humiliating 0-3 loss against England last month. The side failed to put a fight in any of the games and needs to put that series loss behind. The South Africans will come hard at them in this game, and Brathwaite expects his batsmen to show more character and end their losing spree in Test cricket.
Kraigg Brathwaite must lead from the front and deliver a good start with Mikyle Louis as the South African pace attack will test them. Alick Athanaze is emerging as a good player, and he will look to add runs in the middle order with Keacy Carty and Kavem Hodge. Jason Holder and Joshua Da Silva will look to do well in the lower middle order.
The bowling attack faces a tough challenge as their opponents have experienced batsmen. Jayden Seales and Kemar Roach must strike early to put the visitors on the back foot. Shamar Joseph and Jason Holder will need to put pressure on the batsmen in the middle overs. Gudakesh Motie had a good tour of England, and the team expects a good show from him.
West Indies Predicted Playing XI:
Kraigg Brathwaite (c), Mikyle Louis, Alick Athanaze, Kavem Hodge, Jason Holder, Joshua Da Silva (wk), Gudakesh Motie, Shamar Joseph, Keacy Carty, Kemar Roach, Jayden Seales

Batting Conditions
Pace Bowling
Spin Bowling
Queen's Park Oval, Port of Spain, has seen some high-scoring encounters in recent years. The pitch has gone slower, making it easy to bat on. The ball comes onto the bat, and fast bowlers must bend their backs to do well. The spinners enjoy bowling on this track when the ball gets old and soft as it grips and turns sharply.
Toss: To Bowl
Weather will be a crucial factor at the toss. The wicket will be tough to bat on in the first session, where the new ball will move a lot. If we go by the recent trends, the side winning the toss would like to bowl first.
WI vs RSA
Winning Prediction
The West Indies have been inconsistent in this format. Despite best efforts, the side has failed to get a set middle order and has paid the price for regular changes. Their batsmen must do well and put runs on the board for a victory. South Africa has a strong pace of attack and more experience in its batting lineup. It gives them an edge.
