Australia and South Africa will play each other for the seventh time in World Cup history. During the 2019 edition, South Africa won by 10 runs to push Australia to second place on the points table, thanks to a century by Faf du Plessis.

The teams had contrasting outcomes in their curtain-raiser match. South Africa put up a World Cup record 428-5 and won their tournament opener by 102 runs against Sri Lanka. Australia, on the other hand, were bowled out for 199 and lost against India. The spinners will come handy in the traditionally low, slow pitch of Lucknow. In that case, Australia men will miss the service of a second frontline spinner alongside Adam Zampa after Ashton Agar was ruled out of their squad due to an injury.
