AUS vs SA, World Cup 2023 Semi-final 2: Preview, Playing 11, Prediction, Venue, FAQs
AUS vs SA, World Cup 2023 Semi-final 2: In the upcoming first semi-final, India is set to face New Zealand, while the second semi-final features a clash between South Africa and Australia, reminiscent of their encounter in the 1999 edition. Temba Bavuma’s team has displayed impressive form, winning seven out of nine league games, with defeats only against India and surprisingly, the Netherlands. The Proteas boast a formidable batting lineup, highlighted by their dominant performance against Sri Lanka, where they set the highest World Cup score of 428.
Key players like Rassie van der Dussen, Aiden Markram, and Heinrich Klaasen, particularly Quinton de Kock, have been in exceptional form, with de Kock accumulating 591 runs in the league stage. However, Bavuma, their captain, is uncertain due to a hamstring injury sustained in the match against Afghanistan. Despite the absence of Anrich Nortje, pacers Gerald Coetzee, Marco Jansen, and Kagiso Rabada have stepped up, with Coetzee claiming 18 wickets and Jansen, a handy batter, taking 17 wickets. The clash at Eden Gardens promises excitement with its reputation for assisting both pacers and batters.
Australia initially faced setbacks with consecutive losses to India and South Africa but rebounded by defeating Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and New Zealand. Key contributors such as David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, and Travis Head have been in good form. Adam Zampa’s remarkable 22-wicket haul in the league stage has earned Australia the favorites tag, and they seek to avenge their earlier 134-run defeat in the ongoing tournament’s 10th match.
