The ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 is reaching its business end, and matchday 42 promises to be a blockbuster encounter between SA vs. AFG. Both teams have had impressive campaigns so far, and this match will be crucial in determining their chances of making the semi-finals.

South Africa are currently placed fourth in the points table, with 12 points from eight matches. They have won six matches and lost two, and their net run rate is +0.75. Afghanistan are just behind them in fifth place, with 10 points from seven matches. They have won five matches and lost two, and their net run rate is +0.35.

A win for either team in this match will guarantee them a place in the semi-finals. However, a loss for either team could leave them vulnerable to being overtaken by the teams below them in the points table.

South Africa will be looking to their experienced players like Temba Bavuma, Quinton de Kock, and David Miller to lead the way. Afghanistan will be relying on their young and talented players like Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Ibrahim Zadran, and Rashid Khan to step up and perform.

The match will be played at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad, which is one of the largest cricket stadiums in the world. It is expected to be a sell-out crowd, and the atmosphere is sure to be electric.
