T20 World Cup 2024: Vibrant South Africa takes on resilient Bangladesh in New York. SA vs. BAN Live Score
T20 World Cup live score: South Africa takes on tenacious Bangladesh in their Group D match here on Monday, and they will be hoping for a stronger batting showing.
With the uneven field at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, both teams will have their work cut out for them.
Bangladesh is relatively accustomed to the circumstances having played India in their warm-up match at this stadium, but South Africa may have a minor advantage having played their previous two games here.
The South African batsmen didn't appear at ease during their win over Sri Lanka, either, as they chased 77 and 103 runs, respectively, and struggled to triumph against the Netherlands on Saturday.
With Keshav Maharaj handling the spin chores, the Proteas are not likely to alter their four-pronged speed assault, which consists of Anrich Nortje, Kagiso Rabada, Marco Jansen, and Ottneil Baartmen. This combination has served them well in the competition thus far.
But the hitters will need to perform better. After ten overs, South Africa's total against the Netherlands was just 33.
The Porteas faced a hat-trick of losses to the Dutch at the World Cup if it weren't for their No. 4 player Tristan Stubbs and David Miller, who entered the game at number six and scored an undefeated fifty.
