West Indies Cricket Team vs South Africa National Cricket Team Timeline: ODI   

The ODI clash between these two team West Indies and South Africa is always an exciting prospect for them. Some of the highlights are:

Controversy of 1992 World Cup

Rain was the real villain of this match South Africa, chasing 256 to win a rain-revised target of 192 in the reduced match. South Africa required 22 from the final 13 balls when rain intervened, for a second time. West Indies were awarded the game and controversial rain rule in South Africa’s exit from the tournament way back then.

When Brian Lara Was the Hero of the 1996 World Cup

And who can forget how Brian Lara played the game of his life to score 111 in a match-winning effort  Lara’s role was critical in chasing down South Africa’s set target of 245 and formed useful partnerships to ensure the win.

2015: 162 in just 66 balls from AB de Villiers to lay the platform for a huge win his whirlwind of innings and record-breaking ability meant he was fundamental to South Africa’s victory, reflecting both his talent with the bat that is just short of domination in ODI cricket.
