In the twenty-first match of the T20 World Cup 2024, South Africa (SA) will play Bangladesh (BAN). Members of Group D will get together at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Monday, June 10. With four points from their first two games, South Africa leads the standings.
The Proteas men defeated Sri Lanka by six wickets to begin their campaign, and they most recently defeated the Netherlands by four wickets.
However, Bangladesh defeated Sri Lanka by two wickets in their one-and-only encounter. Bangladesh’s prospects of qualifying for the Super 8 would diminish with each further victory for South Africa.
Notably, in T20 cricket, South Africa has never lost to the Asian team. Whether Najmul Hossain Shanto’s squad can end that run this time would be intriguing to watch. With strong bowling groups on both sides, they will try to take advantage of the New York pitch’s characteristics.
South Africa vs Bangladesh head-to-head record:
In Twenty20 Internationals, South Africa holds a perfect 8-0 head-to-head record against Bangladesh, an unparalleled record. This dominance carries over to the T20 World Cup, where South Africa has defeated Bangladesh in each of the three meetings.
The Proteas’ dominance over the Bangladeshi side in both bilateral series and international competitions highlights their superior tactical and exceptional edge. South Africa’s past victories will provide them with a huge psychological edge as they get ready for their upcoming match, which will boost their confidence even more and present a formidable test for Bangladesh.
