South Africa vs Bangladesh, T20 World Cup: Probable XIs, pitch report, weather forecast, and live streaming details for Match 22
South Africa will lock horns with Bangladesh in the 22nd match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022. The Sydney Cricket Ground will play host to this Group 2 fixture of the Super 12 stage on Thursday.
South Africa faced Zimbabwe in their opening fixture of the T20 World Cup 2022. They looked on course for a comfortable win but rain played spoilsport as the game was called off, with the two sides sharing a point each.
The South African bowlers bowled well to restrict Zimbabwe to 79/5 at the end of nine overs as the game was reduced due to rain. Lungi Ngidi picked up two wickets with the ball.
With the bat, Quinton de Kock scored 47* off just 18 balls. They were cruising at 51/0 after three overs before rain arrived and no further play was possible. Now the Proteas will look to register their first win when they take on Bangladesh on Thursday.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, got off to a winning start at the T20 World Cup 2022. They edged the Netherlands by nine runs in their opening game in a hard-fought contest.
After being asked to bat first, Afif Hossain top-scored with 38 as Bangladesh posted 144 on the board at the expense of eight wickets. The bowlers then stepped up and bowled brilliantly to knock over the Dutch side on 135.
Taskin Ahmed was the pick of the bowlers, finishing with figures of 4/25 in his four overs. They will be brimming with confidence and will look to repeat their performance against the Proteas.
