Dubai, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 26th Oct, 2021 ) :South Africa skipper Temba Bavuma won the toss and elected to field against holders West Indies without wicketkeeper-batsman Quinton de Kock in the Twenty20 World Cup on Tuesday.
The Proteas, who lost their tournament opener to Australia, have brought in Reeza Hendricks in place of De Kock who misses out due to "personal reasons".
"It's been a bit challenging to know what a good score is so we want to have a look," Bavuma said on his team's decision to bowl.
"He (De Kock) has made himself unavailable for personal reasons." West Indies, who were hammered by England in their first Super 12 match after being dismissed for 55, have made one change with Hayden Walsh replacing Obed McCoy.
"The guys have been upbeat despite what happened a couple of days ago," said skipper Kieron Pollard.
"We have just one forced change; McCoy misses out and Hayden Walsh gets an opportunity.
"He did well in the recent bilateral series and we look forward to his legspin, the art and energy that he brings."
