South Africa needed a second Super Over against Afghanistan to emerge victorious in one of the most drama-filled T20 World Cup matches ever played in Ahmedabad on Wednesday.
Proteas bowler Kagiso Rabada says they will take motivation from their 2024 ICC T20 World Cup showing into this tournament, which got underway this morning with Pakistan taking on the Netherlands.
Proteas pace spearhead Kagiso Rabada believes some pitches at the T20 World Cup will be of assistance to the bowlers even though high scores are being predicted at the global tournament.
The Proteas suffered a major blow on the eve of the second and final Test against India in Guwahati after it was confirmed that Kagiso Rabada will not recover from a rib injury.
Proteas Test bowling coach Piet Botha has revealed that seam bowler Kagiso Rabada will face a telling 24 hours to determine his participation in the second Test match against India starting on Saturday in Guwahati.
The Proteas had no answers to Jasprit Bumrah as they folded to 159 all out against India on the first day of the first Test at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
