T20 World Cup 2022: Warm-up Match 10 - New Zealand vs South Africa Probable XIs, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast, Match Prediction, and Live Streaming Details
New Zealand and South Africa are set to lock horns in Match no. 10 of the T20 World Cup 2022 warm-up contests on Monday, October 17. The Allan Border Field in Brisbane will host the encounter.
New Zealand, led by Kane Williamson, finished as the runners-up in the last edition of the T20 World Cup and would be in the reckoning again. The Black Caps recently lost to Pakistan in the final of a T20I tri-series at home, but also beat champions Pakistan in one of the earlier games.
Daryl Mitchell, who won the Player of the Match award in the semi-final of last year's edition, didn't play in the tri-series at home after he fractured a finger on his right hand. It also remains to be seen if Lockie Ferguson, who sustained an abdominal injury, will play the match.
South Africa, led by Temba Bavuma, looked a tad out of sorts in their recent T20Is against India where their bowlers were taken to the cleaners.
Skipper Bavuma's form has also been a major cause for concern. South Africa will be tempted to bring in Reeza Hendricks, who scored four T20I fifties in a row earlier this year. Tristan Stubbs is one player to look out for.
