ICC World Cup 2023, Match 42 | South Africa vs Afghanistan Head-To-Head
AFG will face SA on Friday [AP]
The 42nd match of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 will see Afghanistan locking horns with South Africa on Friday, November 10, at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.
South Africa has already secured a place in the semi-finals of the 2023 World Cup after winning six out of the eight matches played in the tournament. They suffered defeats only against India and the Netherlands. Coming into this game after an embarrassing loss to India, they'll be looking to bounce back stronger.
On the other hand, Afghanistan got a bit of a soaking with a close three-wicket loss to Australia. They had a good chance after grabbing seven wickets in a hurry but couldn't get rid of Glenn Maxwell, which really hit them hard. They're in a do-or-die situation because a loss here would seriously dent their chances of reaching the top four.
