South Africa and India’s national cricket teams face off in one of the marquee matches of the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup tournament, one that promises to be one of the best contests. Both squads have played fantastic cricket thus far in this tournament and stand a good chance at reaching its conclusion.
The Proteas will need to bring their A-game against India if they want any chance of beating their rivals, Indian. Though their side is strong, their top three of batting order have struggled recently and must find form quickly in order to have any hope of beating this matchup against Indian.
South Africa’s men’s national cricket team, commonly referred to as the Proteas, represents its nation in international cricket competition and is administered by Cricket South Africa (CSA). Their name takes its inspiration from their national flower: Protea cynaroides or King Protea; currently ranked second in ICC One Day International rankings under Faf du Plessis’ guidance.
Although South Africa have had great success at World Cup events, they have never managed to claim the big prize. Their most devastating defeat came against tournament runners-up New Zealand in a rain-affected semi-final matchup in 2015. New Zealand capitalized on Brendon McCullum’s powerful batting and chased down their revised target of 298 easily; leaving South Africa struggling under immense pressure before eventually falling short of any memorable comeback attempts.
South Africa’s top-order batting issues have persisted since their disappointing loss against New Zealand, placing undue strain on captain Aiden Markram. For success against India in March he must improve his game.
The 4th T20I between South Africa and India will take place at The Wanderers stadium Johannesburg. This match gives India an opportunity to continue their unbeaten run against Proteas in T20 bilateral series. Sports18 in India will broadcast it, while Jio Cinema App provides streaming live coverage. Australia will host this matchup.
