Kieron Pollard, West Indies skipper: "Obviously just a matter that we haven't scored enough runs. It's disappointing today. I thought the first six overs, the end result of 43 without loss we would have taken that. We wanted to keep that momentum going but we lost a couple of wickets."
19:10 (IST)
Anrich Nortje, Player of the Match: "100 percent (On playing in the IPL), it helped me quite a lot. Just having the confidence of knowing the conditions, understanding what to do and when to do it have definitely helped me here."

Ian Bishop at the pitch report in Dubai: "This surface here as we stand on it right now looks to have enough grass, not a lot of grass. It is cut very low and it is right across a very hard surface. It looks really firm and should be a good cricket surface. There won't be any dew that means the conditions will be equal through both innings. South Africa's pacers bowled a lot of back of a length against Australia and will look to do the same against West Indies."

Smarting from opening game losses, a good batting display will be high on the agenda for South Africa and defending champions West Indies when the two teams lock horns in a Super 12 match of the T20 World Cup in Dubai on Tuesday.
While South Africa were handed a five-wicket defeat by Australia, West Indies sank to six-wicket loss against England on Saturday.

West Indies were skittled for just 55 runs while the Proteas were a touch better, managing 118 in 20 overs thanks to Aiden Markram’s 36-ball 40.

Live Score South Africa vs West Indies Live Streaming T20 World Cup 2021: Hello and welcome tour LIVE coverage of the T20 World Cup 2021 Super 12 match between South Africa and West Indies. Both teams are looking to register their first win after succumbing to defeats to Australia and England respectively, Stay tuned as we bring you updates leading upto the match.
Preview: South Africa and West Indies will hope to open their account in the T20 World Cup 2021 Super 12s when they lock horns in their second match of tournament proper on Tuesday.
Both South Africa and West Indies began their campaign with defeats, albeit contrasting in terms of the margin, to Australia and England respectively.
A resistance from Steve Smith (35) and Marcus Stoinis (24*) led Australia to a five-wicket win over Proteas after Temba Bavuma and Co managed just 118/9 while batting first on Saturday. Australia chased the total with two balls and five wickets to spare.
Meanwhile, the Windies, later on the same day endured a forgettable outing after being dismissed for just 55 inside 15 overs, after being asked to bat by England in their opener.
In reply, Windies showcased a glimpse of a fightback with Akeal Hosein claiming two wickets to restrict England to 39/4 at one stage, but a very low target to be chased meant that Jos Buttler (24*) and skipper Eoin Morgan (7*) sealed the match with six wickets and 11.4 overs to spare.
For the Windies, Chris Gayle’s 13 was their top individual score with the rest of their batters collapsing to single digit figures.
Rebuilding the innings in case of losing a wicket or two will be an area where Kieron Pollard and Co will look to improve on. None of the West Indian batters showed signs of playing a composed innings against England in a bid to potentially rebuild the innings.
Proteas premier bowlers Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje were among the wickets against Australia, and will look to give the Windies batters a tough time in the middle.
