South Africa are motivated by the desire to prove themselves against Bangladesh, Aiden Markram said on Monday as he called on the team to build on their massive 229-run World Cup victory over England.
South Africa will take on Bangladesh in Match 23 of the ICC Cricket World Cup, 2023 on October 24 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, India. The match commences at 02:00 PM IST. The South African team made a significant comeback post their loss to the Netherlands with a massive 229-run win over defending champions England in their last game of ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. The Proteas will look to carry the momentum against Bangladesh with an eye on sealing their spot in the top four. (World Cup 2023 Points Table)
South Africa will look to build on their superlative performance against the defending champions when they take on a struggling Bangladesh in their World Cup match in Mumbai on Tuesday, knowing well that taking the foot off the pedal at this stage could spell trouble. South Africa were off to a flier when they thrashed Sri Lanka and Australia by 100-plus margins, but a shocking defeat against the Netherlands pegged them back before they demolished England by 229 runs to put their campaign back on track.
For a nation that has never won the 50-over World Cup despite producing some of the best players and teams, South Africa look determined to go the distance in this edition, shedding the 'chokers' tag. With one 400-plus and another near-400 total to their credit and a massive 229-run win over reigning champions England, South Africa have made a strong statement ahead of the fixtures against New Zealand and India.
England captain Jos Buttler admitted his decision to bat first in the Mumbai heat was a crucial error after their World Cup hammering by South Africa on Saturday.
Heinrich Klaasen said he had "worked my whole life" for a superb hundred that powered South Africa to a crushing 229-run World Cup win over champions England. Klaasen's 109 was the centrepiece of South Africa's huge total of 399-7 in Mumbai on Saturday. His innings was all the more impressive for being made in oppressively hot and humid conditions he likened to "batting in a sauna", with Klaasen repeatedly suffering from cramp as temperatures soared to 36 degrees at the Wankhede Stadium.
England are set to be without leading wicket-taker Reece Topley for the remainder of their World Cup campaign due to a suspected broken finger and have already ruled out Jofra Archer as a possible replacement. Reigning champions England suffered a colossal 229-run thrashing by South Africa in Mumbai on Saturday to leave their hopes of a successful title defence hanging by a thread. Their record one-day international defeat was compounded when England coach Matthew Mott confirmed Topley was unlikely to feature again at the tournament.
England captain Jos Buttler accepted the champions "have no room for error from here on in" at the World Cup after a record 229-run defeat by South Africa. The Proteas piled up 399-7 after Buttler sent them into bat in Mumbai on Saturday, with Heinrich Klaasen defying the hot and humid conditions at the Wankhede Stadium to post a gutsy hundred. England, having conceded their highest one-day international total, then collapsed to 170 as they suffered what was also their record loss at this level.
