Quinton de Kock is the leading run-getter for South Africa, having scored three centuries in just five matches.
The South African justice platoon has established itself as one of the most redoubtable contenders in the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023. They’ve secured four palms in five matches, with only one loss. Quinton de Kock and Heinrich Klaasen have been name players in the fur department, entering timely support from stage- in commander Aiden Markram. When it comes to their bowling, bellwethers Kagiso Rabada, Marco Jansen and Gerald Coetzee have been exceptional, constantly dismembering rival fur lineups. This presents a significant challenge for the Pakistan batters, indeed on the slow Mama Chidambaram Stadium face.
The South African platoon is in a further favourable position compared to Pakistan. A palm for the Proteas would place them forcefully in contention for a spot in the semi-finals.
On the other hand, Pakistan is facing a do- or- die situation against South Africa. Another loss could effectively exclude them from the competition.
