HERE we go again: It’s crunch time, and as the South African Proteas prepare to face India in a marquee ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 Super 8 clash in Ahmedabad on Sunday. There’s a lot on the line in this game, including pride because both sides enter the match unbeaten from the group phase.
India top Group A with four wins, while South Africa finished first in Group D after victories over Canada, Afghanistan and New Zealand.
That head-to-head sets the stage for a high-stakes battle. But India have their noses slightly ahead, having beaten South Africa by 30 runs in that Mumbai warm-up game.
But all that’s in the past. All that matters now is how the teams perform on the field of play…
