SA vs AFG Dream11 Team Prediction Cricket World Cup 2023

SA vs AFG Match Preview

It is a big game for Afghanistan as they need a win to stay alive in the tournament. South Africa have already secured a semifinal berth and will play Australia in the second semifinal. Afghanistan are in the hunt for the fourth semifinal slot but they will have to register a big win over South Africa to make up for the inferior run rate.

The Proteas lost to India in the last game and would want to return to winning ways. Afghanistan, on the other hand, lost a golden chance to beat Australia. They reduced the Pat Cummins-led side to 91-7 but Glenn Maxwell scored 201 to help Australia chase 292.

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

SA vs AFG Dream11 Top Picks

Quinton de Kock

De Kock has been in fine form in World Cup 2023, scoring 545 runs in eight games. He has also scored four centuries in the tournament and would like to add one more to his tally when he steps on Narendra Modi Stadium.

Aiden Markram

Aiden Markram has also enjoyed a great run with the bat. He has scored 371 runs in eight games, including a 49 ball century. On a flat track, Markram can be ruthless.

Marco Jansen

Jansen has taken 17 wickets in eight games. He has been brilliant with the new ball, giving South Africa early wickets. He can also chip in with handy runs down the order.

Ibrahim Zadran

Ibrahim Zadran has been very consistent for Afghanistan and scored a century in the last game against Australia. He has scored 361 runs in eight games for Afghanistan.

Mujeeb ur Rahman

Mujeeb’s mystery spin can trouble the Proteas. The South African team has played Rashid Khan a lot but they are yet to face Mujeeb enough so the Afghan spinner can turn out to the trump card for the Hashmatullah Shahidi-led team.
