T20 World Cup 2021 Photos: West Indies endure horror show with ball as South Africa open Super 12s account

Knocks from Aiden Markram (51*) and Rassie van der Dussen (43*) led South Africa to a dominating eight-wicket win over West Indies in Dubai at the T20 World Cup 2021 Super 12 match on Tuesday. This was Windies' second defeat in as many matches. AP

A Cricket South Africa (CSA) directive had ordered their players to take a knee (as a gesture of battle against racism). However, in controversial circumstances, Quinton de Kock opted out of the match, refusing to take the knee. Reeza Hendricks replaced him instead. AP
Temba Bavuma won the toss and South Africa opted to field. Evin Lewis (56) made a strong start with Lendl Simmons, with the due forging a 73-run partnership for the first wicket. AP
