Pitch Report:
The Adelaide Oval always has been a high-scoring ground in Australia, where both the pacers as well as the spinners have opportunities to dominate. Particularly under lights, the team batting first could be advantageous.
Team Analysis:
South Africa
The Proteas has been one of the most dominant teams in the World Cup so far as they have quality players across the board. But in their recent fixture against Pakistan, South Africa’s weaknesses were exposed. Their batters couldn’t cope against Pakistani bowlers whereas their bowlers were put under the pump in the first innings. But still, they are one of the favourites to qualify out of Group 2.

Netherlands
The Netherlands despite being out of the final four stages had some moments to cherish from their trip down under. They put up some decent performances but failed to match up against the other teams in their group. Bas de Leede has been their best player in the tournament as the all-rounder has been crucial for the Dutch in all three departments.
