India is going to face South Africa in the T20 World Cup 2024 final.
In the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024, India and South Africa are the two teams that have remained undefeated so far. However, when the final match of the season is played between the two teams on June 29, one team will have to lose and the other team will have to win.
This is the second time under the leadership of Rohit Sharma and coaching of Rahul Dravid that India will be seen playing a T20 World Cup match against South Africa. Let us tell you that the last time both of them faced each other was in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022, and in this match, India had to face defeat against South Africa by 5 wickets.
South Africa won the match by 5 wickets
Let us tell you that the last match between India and South Africa was played on 30 October during the T20 World Cup 2022, when both the teams faced each other in Group 2 of Super 12. In this match, the Indian team was defeated by South Africa by 5 wickets.
If we tell you about this match played at Perth Stadium, then the Indian team won the toss and batted first and scored only 133 runs at the loss of 9 wickets in 20 overs. In this match, only Suryakumar Yadav played an innings of 68 runs for Team India, all the other batsmen proved to be a big flop. Big batsmen like KL Rahul 9, Rohit Sharma 15, Virat Kohli 13, Deepak Hooda 0, Hardik Pandya 2 and Dinesh Karthik 6 were out cheaply.
After this, South Africa achieved the target of 134 runs given by the Indian team by losing 5 wickets in 19.4 overs. For South Africa, Aiden Markram played a match winning innings of 52 runs and David Miller played a match winning innings of 59* runs.
So South Africa would like to play a similar game against India, but this time Team India seems to be in a different form. When both the teams will face each other for the title, a tough competition can be seen between them.
