Analysis
South Africa has emerged as one of the top teams in the T20 World Cup 2024 with their well-rounded squad. Despite an out-of-form top order, the Proteas have one of the most explosive batting lineups in the tournament. But with the ball, the South African pacers have carried the side in the initial phase of the World Cup with Anrich Nortje rediscovering his form and being one of the best bowlers across the tournament.
On the other hand, Bangladesh didn’t have a great outing against Sri Lanka, but it still managed to win thanks to veteran batter Mahmudullah. The Bangladesh batting has been their major concern with key batters like Tanzid Hasan, Soumya Sarkar, Litton Das and Shakib Al Hasan failing to score runs. On the bowling front, the Bangla Tigers have an exciting pace-bowling trio with Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman and Tanzim Hasan Sakib alongside a veteran spin attack.
