South Africa earlier won the toss and skipper AB de Villiers elected to bat, with the thought of utilising what he described as “perfect batting conditions” for his side’s batsmen to put up a big total on the board and put the West Indians under pressure early in their innings. West Indies skipper Jason Holder named one change, with Suleiman Benn coming in place of Nikita Miller. South Africa decided to go for three changes, with Rilee Rossouw, Farhaan Behardien and Kyle Abbott coming in place of JP Duminy, Wayne Parnell and Vernon Philander.
