PAK vs SA Dream11 Team Prediction Cricket World Cup 2023

PAK vs SA Match Preview

This is a must win game for Pakistan. The Men in Green have been poor in the World Cup, losing last three games to India, Australia and Afghanistan. Their chances of reaching the semis hang by a threat. Babar Azam and Co. needs to win all games convincingly to stand a chance in top 4.

Meanwhile, South Africa has been ruthless. They have won four out of five games. The batters look in ominous form. South Africa have posted scores of 428, 311, 399, 382 in the four games they have batted first.

Let’s take a look at the dream11 team prediction for this match.

The Chennai surface will offer help to the bowlers but they need to pitch the ball in right area. Pakistan failed to do so against Afghanistan and they were hammered. The pitch is nothing like the surface on which India played Australia so batters should feel confident.

Weather Report

There are 20 per cent chance of rain and the match could have several interruptions. The temperature will range between 31 and 26 degrees.

PAK vs SA Dream11 Top Picks

Babar Azam

Babar Azam scored 74 against Afghanistan. The captain has been under fire for the team’s poor show and he will be keen to hit back at critics with a good performance. Babar looked in full flow against Afghanistan and a big century might be due.

Mohammad Rizwan

Mohammad Rizwan has also been in good form. He has been very consistent and scored 302 runs in five games so far. The Babar-Rizwan combo can help Pakistan post big score or chase a big one. They can lay a solid platform for the likes of Iftikhar and Shadab to finish on a high.

Haris Rauf

Rauf had a poor game against Afghanistan and he will come out all guns blazing against South Africa. The bowler is a wicket-taker and Pakistan will be expecting a good show from him against the mighty Proteas.

Quinton De Kock

De Kock has been in magnificent form in World Cup 2023. He has scored three centuries in five games and looks unstoppable at the moment. De Kock is playing his final ODI tournament and he is having a dream tournament. Given his form, a big innings looks very likely against Pakistan.

Heinrich Klassen

Klassen has been one of the most consistent batters across teams in last year. He has decimated the bowling attacks. He has scored 288 runs in five matches at a strike rate of eye popping 150.79 in World Cup 2023.
