South Africa and Afghanistan have only played each other once in the 50-over format, and South Africa won that match. In this tournament, South Africa has been one of the strongest teams, winning six out of their eight matches. On the other hand, Afghanistan has struggled with four losses out of eight matches. Despite Afghanistan’s underdog performance, South Africa remains a dominant team. Hence, in the upcoming match, we believe Bavuma and his team will come out on top.
