Match Details

Match: South Africa vs Australia 2nd Semi-Final (2nd v 3rd), ICC Cricket World Cup 2023

Date: 16th November 2023

Time: 2:00 pm IST and 8:30 am GMT

Venue: Eden Garden stadium, Kolkata, India

Pitch report

Eden Gardens’ pitch is a tad bit slower than average. It slows down after that, so it’s not as effective when batting. Spinners will be useful at that point since they will have lots of grip and spin off the surface. The ball won’t come on easily to the bat, so seamers will need to bowl a lot of cutters in the final overs. It will be difficult to bat second here because the surface will get harder to bat on and the ball will travel about under the lights.

Weather Report

On the day of the match, Kolkata will have partly overcast skies. Although rain is probable, it shouldn’t have a significant impact on the game.

Squad Comparison for South Africa vs Australia 

South Africa

The way South Africa has performed in this World Cup, they should be proud. Except those shocking losses to the Netherlands and India by 243 runs, they had been incredibly strong the entire time. When they bat first, their batting lineup is their greatest asset. Still, chasing gives them a restless feeling. They will need to exercise caution when they move into the knockout stages.

Their primary hitter to watch out for in the semifinals will be Quinton de Kock. After the league stage, he amassed an incredible 591 runs at an average of 65.66, making him the second-highest run scorer in the competition. The squad would love to see De Kock add another century here after he smashed four in this edition.

The other two reliable hitters on the club who have kept the middle-order together are Aiden Markram (396 runs in 9 innings at 49.50) and Rassie van der Dussen (442 runs in 9 innings at an average of 55.25). 

Impact player Heinrich Klaasen has been hitting the ball at 140 in this competition. He enjoys playing against spinners and has the potential to challenge Adam Zampa, who is presently performing well. 

South Africa Playing XI

Quinton de Kock (wk), Temba Bavuma (c), Rassie van der Dussen, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller, Marco Jansen, Gerald Coetzee, Keshav Maharaj, Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi

Australia 

It is said that Australia should never be written off in a World Cup. They tell it how it is. Many had written them off after they lost their opening two World Cup matches. But they have orchestrated the most spectacular of comebacks, winning seven games in a row to propel them into the semifinals. They are undoubtedly now in the zone.

This time, they bat deep and have a potent batting lineup. Throughout the competition, David Warner has been among the runners-up and has amassed 499 runs with an average of 55.44. 

Next up is Mitchell Marsh, who just scored an incredible 177 off 132 balls against Bangladesh. With over six overs remaining, he and his amazing effort helped Australia reach their target of 307.

Travis Head is an attacking batsman and even a brief appearance from him may have an influence, but he hasn’t picked up since that explosive fifty against New Zealand.

The seasoned Steve Smith should also get some runs for the Australians. Although he hasn’t exactly made an impression on the competition, his technique will come in handy in the middle overs at this wicket.

The exception to Australia’s lackluster bowling performance has been Adam Zampa’s outstanding game. With 22 wickets taken at an average of 18.90 throughout the World Cup, the leg-spinner is leading the bowling charts.

Australia Playing XI

Travis Head, David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Steve Smith, Josh Inglis (wk), Glenn Maxwell, Marnus Labuschagne/Marcus Stoinis, Pat Cummins (c), Mitchell Starc, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood

South Africa vs Australia Match Prediction

Over the years, Australia and South Africa have developed a fierce rivalry that has resulted in numerous memorable matches. The two giants are expected to play another exciting contest. Although South Africa is a strong batting team, they are nervous chasers, hence. Australia will have the upper hand in this knockout match if they are expected to chase a hard mark. The ideal strategy for South Africa is to bat first and hope that their talented hitters can score a high total. They stand a good chance of making it into their first-ever ODI World Cup final if they can pull it off. Otherwise, Australia is probably going to win this form.
