It will be the clash of No. 1 and No. 2 as Team India face South Africa in match number 37 of the 2023 World Cup at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Sunday. This will be a day-night match and will begin at 2:00 PM IST.
The Men in Blue have been absolutely sensational in the World Cup so far, playing seven matches and winning seven. They are the only side to have not lost a single game in the tournament yet. In their previous match, they hammered Sri Lanka by 302 runs. Batting first in Mumbai, they posted an imposing 357/8 on the board and then bundled out the opposition for 55 in 19.4 overs.
Barring the loss to the Netherlands, South Africa too have had an exceptional World Cup campaign. Opener Quinton de Kock has led the way with four hundreds, while most of the other batters have also chipped in with significant contributions. On the bowling front, Marco Jansen has stood out, even as Keshav Maharaj and Kagiso Rabada have also been impressive.
