The Proteas enter with considerable confidence, having won all their Group D matches, albeit with the final few games proving uncomfortably tight. They would be mindful of their batting challenges and would be determined to begin assertively and positively, whether batting first or second. Considering the other competitors as England and the West Indies, the South Africans would find it imperative to start their knockout campaign with a win on the board.
It’s been a remarkable journey for the USA thus far, surprising everyone in a group (Group A) where India and Pakistan were widely expected to go through. Their stunning Super Over triumph against the 2009 champions showcased their formidable capabilities and thrust them into the global spotlight. They would’ve been eagerly anticipating their clash against Ireland in the final group-stage match, but unfortunately, it was washed out without a single ball being bowled.
