USA vs SA Head-to-Head Stats

This will be the first ever T20I match between the United States and South Africa.


USA vs SA Pitch Report

The wicket at North Sound Stadium has seen four games in the tournament so far. We have witnessed that the wicket has helped the bowlers. While there has been swing for the new ball bowlers, the spinners have also got something off the track once the ball has lost its shine. It will be a struggle for the batters to score runs on this track, and it can be expected that the bowlers will decide the fate of the game.

Fantasy value from the pitch report

  • Keep as many bowlers as possible to get the most points in the fantasy contests. 
  • Middle-order batters could be efficient point earners in the game and prove to be decisive picks.


USA vs SA Fantasy Cricket Tips

The United States has been highly competitive in the tournament, and the same can be expected in this game. But the fact that they will have to adjust to the West Indian conditions makes the South African players the more favourable picks for the fantasy contests. 


USA vs SA Winner Prediction

The United States has been outstanding and has punched above its weight in the group stage of the tournament. However, the lack of experience of the players in the West Indies makes South Africa the favourites for the game.


USA vs SA Top Player Picks

Aaron Jones (USA)

  • T20 World Cup 2024 Stats: 141 Runs in 3 Matches
  • The US middle-order batter was their pillar in the game against Canada. Aaron Jones showed great determination and grit in the game and will be looking to do the same in this game. Jones is one of the pillars of the USA batting and will be a relatively safer choice from the team.

Saurabh Netravalkar (USA)

  • T20 World Cup 2024 Stats: 4 Wickets in 3 Matches
  • The left-arm seamer has been in great form in the tournament. Saurabh Netravalkar has bowled some efficient spells for his team, and he has not only been economical but also picked up important wickets. He will be one of the highly rewarding options for the fantasy contests. 

Anrich Nortje (SA)

  • T20 World Cup 2024 Stats: 9 Wickets in 4 Matches
  • The South African speedster has found great rhythm in the group stages. Anrich Nortje might prove to be lethal on the Antigua wicket and earn you some decisive points in the fantasy contests. 

Tabraiz Shamsi (SA)

  • T20 World Cup 2024 Stats: 4 Wickets in 1 Match
  • The South African left-arm wrist spinner has just played a game in the tournament. But in that only opportunity, Tabraiz Shamsi showed how effective he could be. He is coming into this game with the wicket-taking form and might prove to be a crucial choice for the fantasy contests. 


USA vs SA Differential Picks

Ali Khan (USA)

  • T20 World Cup 2024 Stats: 3 Wickets in 3 Matches
  • The US pacer is an effective death-over bowler. Although Ali Khan has not picked up too many wickets in the tournament, he can prove to be a decisive choice in the game, with the South African batters looking to take the attack to him.

Ottniel Bartman (SA)

  • T20 World Cup 2024 Stats: 5 Wickets in 4 Matches
  • The South African pacer started off the tournament on a great note. But in the last couple of games, Ottniel Baartman has not been amongst the wickets. However, he can pick up wickets in crucial stages, which makes him a different choice for the game.


USA vs SA Fantasy Expert Advice

Given the playing conditions and the form of the two teams, a 2-3-2-4 or a 3-2-2-4 combination could be rewarding for the game.
