South Africa have named a full-strength squad for their two One-Day Internationals against the Netherlands with the side needing victory in both to keep alive hopes of automatic qualification for the Cricket World Cup in India later this year.
South Africa and West Indies nearly went on to break every record held in T20I in a historic encounter. West Indies and South Africa produced a match which will be remembered for the many years. It was memorable not only for the number of runs that both teams scored but also for the number of records they went on to break. West Indies set a target of 259 for the Proteas to chase in 20 overs. De Kock and Reeza Hendricks went on to play quick-fire T20I knocks to chase down the total. After completing the chase successfully, the South African men's cricket team holds the record for the highest run chase in T20 cricket.
The Proteas made history at SuperSport Park on Sunday when they beat the West Indies by six wickets to level the three-game T20I series at 1-1.

However, Quinton de Kock responded with 100 from 44 balls, a maiden T20 century, while fellow opener Reeza Hendricks hit 68. Captain Aiden Markram (38) saw his side home with seven balls to spare.
