This has been an excellent and entertaining first edition of the International Masters League and, to make it even better, there is still plenty up for grabs ahead of the final three group stage matches taking place this week.
By the time this fixture gets underway, there will be only one more match to begin, but this one is a crucial contest in itself as a victory for West Indies Masters will see them advance whereas South Africa Masters need to force a large net-run-rate swing to knock the men from the Caribbean out of the competition and take their fourth place spot!
The game takes place in the evening in Raipur where the temperature will be high once again and we expect both teams to play this match with an attacking mindset from the opening ball.

West Indies Masters were involved in an all-time high-scoring classic game on Saturday night and unfortunately for the 'Men in Maroon' they came out on the wrong side of it, losing by seven runs.
No fault could be put on their bowlers or batters after the former conceded 253/3 on a batter's dream surface before Brian Lara's team came up just short on 246/6.
Tino Best and Dwayne Smith were the most impressive of the bowling attack, keeping their economy rates down in single figures and both will look to do the same in this contest. With the bat, Smith top scored with 79 and there was also a half-century for keeper-batter William Perkins. Expect Lara to deliver in this match with the pressure high and requiring one of the world's best to put on a show.

South Africa Masters did not have the best of experiences in their last game on Friday when they came up against the in-form Australia Masters side who were in no mood to take their foot off the pedal!
In the end, Jacques Kallis' side were beaten by a whopping 137 runs and that may be a losing margin which ends up having an effect on their net-run-rate which they are unable to repair with this their final group stage game.
However, South Africa, in any sport, are renowned for their never-say-die and tough approach which we expect to see in this game. Dane Vilas could well be pushed up the order, along with Richard Levi to give a real attacking flavour to the innings.
With the ball, expect Thandi Thasbalala to be the most accurate and hardest to hit out of the ground on this batter-friendly pitch!

Clear skies are forecast in Raipur from start to finish of this game on Tuesday evening. The temperature will not fall any lower than 28 degrees by the end of the contest.
The pitch in Raipur has only hosted one game ahead of the start of this week but it delivered 499 runs! Therefore, we predict another high-scoring affair with a par score over 240 in the first innings.
With the overhead conditions unlikely to change much across the match, we predict that both teams will want to bat the other out of the game in the first innings. Therefore, we predict both teams will choose to bat first.
This should be a very entertaining fixture with both teams having the personnel to make the most of a beautiful batting surface. Player for player, we think West Indies Masters are the more suited and we expect them to get the victory to book their place in the knockout stage.
