In the 32nd fixture of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023, New Zealand (NZ) will lock horns with South Africa (SA) in a super exciting match on Wednesday, November 1, 2023 at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune, India at 2:00 PM IST.
Ahead of the game, here is a look at the top player picks, the important player stats, the top captain and vice-captain choices and the best-predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match.
The Black Caps got off to an excellent start to the season but have been beaten by India by 4 wickets with 12 balls remaining and Australia by 5 runs across their last two matches. The fixtures in the tournament always meant that New Zealand would have a run of tougher games towards the end of the group stage. However, they were very close to beating Australia in the last match and we expect them to push South Africa all the way in this match.

On the other hand, South Africa suffered the surprise defeat against the Netherlands in Match 15 but have since beaten England by 229 runs, Bangladesh 149 runs and Pakistan by 1 wicket on Friday. South Africa remain one of the top teams in the tournament with plenty of pundits tipping them to go all the way. They have shown an ability to brush aside weaker sides but also showed character against Pakistan in their last match. We expect them to be very hard to beat once again in this fixture.

There was a slight feeling of uneven bounce on the surface at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Monday’s match. Any first innings score of 270+ will be very competitive in this game. Three of the last four ODIs in Pune have been won by the team batting second with both of the last games won by 7 wickets. As a result, we expect both skippers to choose to field first if they win the toss.
