In the men’s T20 World Cup, India and South Africa are the only teams to get to the finals unscathed. On Saturday, following 54 matches and a month of nonstop action, the Rohit Sharma-led team will square off against Aiden Markram’s team in the summit match at the Kensington Oval in Barbados.
India wants to bring back trophies in international cricket contests after an 11-year hiatus. In any limited-overs format, South Africa is attempting to win its first World Cup as a men’s team.
IND vs SA: Top 5 Players to Watch Out For:
Quinton de Kock:
In the Super 8s, Quinton de Kock amassed two fifties despite not playing much in the group stage. The left-hander scored 12 against the West Indies after scoring 74 and 65 against the USA and England, respectively. Among batters who have faced at least 100 balls during this period, he also has the highest strike rate (168) during the powerplay. In addition, de Kock has struck the most sixes in the opening six overs (ten).
Kagiso Rabada:
Kagiso Rabada promised to dominate the game against the US in a crucial ICC T20 World Cup 2024, Very 8, Group 2 encounter at Sir Vivian Richards Arena, North Sound, Antigua. Rabada’s numbers were 3/18. South Africa needs him to be able to split organizations and put pressure on the opposition to win the next game. Rabada’s performance in the impending match will be critical to his team’s power play success.
Suryakumar Yadav:
Surya has been the main source of optimism for India in the last two games, even though batting hasn’t been simple this World Cup. Suryakumar Yadav kept India afloat and helped them win a match against the United States of America, his knock against England was the real differentiator. Mumbaikar is without a doubt the best T20 batsman to have ever played the game, so include him in your squad without any second thought.
Jasprit Bumrah:
The Indian pacer’s average in the ongoing T20 World Cup was 6.08. Say no more. His destructive form has solidified his status as the greatest player to ever play the format, even if he has only taken 11 wickets in five games. He is a reliable performer who is prepared to offer another weapon to our arsenal, especially when paired with his 4.08 economy in the current T20 World Cup.
Virat Kohli:
Virat Kohli has scored the most runs in T20 World Cups, with 1,216 in 34 games. However, Kohli’s recent form suggests otherwise. In seven matches of the ongoing tournament, the top-order hitter has scored only 75 runs, with a high of 37. Fans and critics alike will be glued to this tense T20 World Cup match to see if this top-order star batsman is on the verge of peaking.
