Match Preview

South Africa began their campaign with a convincing 57 run victory over Canada and will be keen to carry that winning momentum forward.

Afghanistan, meanwhile, got off to a disappointing start, going down to New Zealand by five wickets in their opening match. With experienced players such as Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi in their ranks, they will be looking to produce an improved performance.

Aiden Markram stands out as the top choice for the captaincy role after scoring 59 runs in the previous outing in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. Gulbadin Naib, who comes into this match on the back of a 63 run innings and also offers value with the ball, shapes up as a strong option for the vice captaincy role.
