SA vs AFG T20 World Cup 2024 Dream11 Prediction Today Match Semi-final 1: Captain & Vice Captain and Pitch Report

SA vs AFG T20 World Cup 2024 Dream11 Prediction Today Match: South Africa and Afghanistan will be playing Semi Final 1 of the T20 World Cup 2024 at Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Tarouba. This semi-final is a chance for both South Africa and Afghanistan to reach the first-ever T20 World Cup final in their history. Though Afghanistan is playing its first-ever semifinal as well, on the other hand, South Africa has reached the semifinals of the T20 World Cup two times prior to this one, in 2009 and 2014.

This match will take place at Brian Lara Cricket Stadium, where bowlers have dominated the matches played in this World Cup. Considering this, Afghanistan might have some worry because their batting has not complemented their excellent bowling display in this tournament so far. On the other side, South Africa is also struggling with the same problem, although their batters have shown some form in the last two matches. Given this fact, this match could be decided by the bowlers.

Match Prediction: SA vs AFG T20 World Cup 2024 Semi-final 1

South Africa and Afghanistan have played with each other in T20 two times before this game, and South Africa won both of those matches. So, if you go with head-to-head encounter history, South Africa has the upper hand, and quality-wise, South Africa is a superior side too. However, Afghanistan has come this far in the tournament by defeating all the odds; therefore, writing off this Afghan team would not be a wise decision.

This match will take place at the Brian Lara Cricket Stadium, where bowlers have dominated in all the World Cup games played here so far, and Afghanistan is a strong bowling unit. Given this fact, this match would be a thrilling encounter where the result could go either way. According to the Google Win predictor, South Africa has a 72% chance of winning this match; on the other hand, Afghanistan has a 28% chance of winning this match and qualifying for the final.

SA vs AFG Pitch Report: T20 World Cup 2024 Semi-final 1 

The pitch at Brian Lara Cricket Academy is renowned for being a balanced wicket for cricket and providing opportunities for both bowlers and batters. Its hard, bouncy surface makes it easier for the ball to come to the bat and facilitates strokeplay for batters. On the other hand, the pitch at this stadium does provide some help to the spinners in the later stages of the game. Even though the surface is known for being batting-friendly, bowlers can still find opportunities on it, particularly as the game goes on.
