The calculators are likely to come out for this game. The winner goes through. A West Indies win in particular closes out their headaches while a loss takes them home. For South Africa, a loss is fine but they will have to look at net run rate. They have had a lot of close games, handling pressure well and that is an aspect of change in South African Cricket as they are often known to crumble under pressure.
