Centurion T20 records: SuperSport Park T20 records and highest innings totals

Having hosted a South Africa-West Indies Test less than a month ago, SuperSport Park will now be hosting the first of a three-match T20I series between these two teams.

By virtual of being the hosts, South Africa have participated in each of the 12 T20Is played in the city since 2009. Having won five and lost seven matches, the Proteas don’t have the best of records in the shortest format here. West Indies, on the other hand, have never played a T20I at this stadium. Out of their nine matches across the other two formats, West Indies have won two and lost seven matches here.
