SA vs BAN, World Cup 2023 Match 23: Team news

Barring their unexpected defeat against Netherlands in Dharamsala, South Africa have shown their might at the World Cup so far, beating both defending champions England and Australia comprehensively. All their batters are amongst the runs and all their bowlers are amongst the wickets.

Temba Bavuma missed the last match due to a stomach bug just moments before the toss. It is unclear as to whether he will be fit and available for this game.

Bangladesh need to pull up their socks soon if they are to stay alive in the World Cup. Shakib Al Hasan missed the match against India but has been back in the nets and is expected to be available for this match. The last time they played South Africa, in the 2019 World Cup, Bangladesh put up a dominant performance, scoring 330 and beating them by 21 runs. They need to draw inspiration from that and belive that they can turn their campaign around.

South Africa vs Bangladesh predicted XIs

South Africa: Temba Bavuma (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Rassie van der Dussen, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller, Marco Jansen, Keshav Maharaj, Gerald Coetzee, Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi.

Match prediction: Who will win today’s South Africa-Bangladesh match?

Given the form and momentum that both teams are carrying into the game, South Africa will start as clear favourites. Their experience of having played at the Wankhede Stadium a few days back will come in handy as well.
