SA vs BAN Preview
- South Africa has won every game in the previous seven T20 international matches versus Bangladesh.
- In the team’s last five T20 games, Bangladesh has only once won. Therefore, this will be on their thoughts.
- The South African team’s opener, Quinton de Kock appeared to be in great form in the most recent game, which strengthened their batting.
On Thursday afternoon at the Sydney Cricket Ground, South Africa and Bangladesh will square off in Match 22 of the 2022 T20 World Cup. The first match between South Africa and Zimbabwe resulted in a tie. On Monday, Bangladesh defeated the Netherlands by nine runs. In Sydney, the match begins at 14:00 local time.
South Africa’s match against Zimbabwe was cut short, but they played well in their nine bowling overs and three batting overs. In Sydney, they ought to be too powerful for Bangladesh.
On Monday, Bangladesh defeated the Netherlands by nine runs, but the outcome was always certain. This matchup with South Africa will be much more difficult.

South Africa Team News & Probable Playing XIs
Spinner Tabraiz Shamsi was not selected for the team prior to the first game against Zimbabwe, so it would not be surprising if he is not chosen once more given the light rain expected for this contest. Reeza Hendricks did not play on Monday, and we anticipate that the top-order hitter will not play in this game either.

South Africa is the favourite to win this match.
Although South Africa is ahead of Bangladesh in Group 2, the two teams’ IT20 form over the past several months could not be more dissimilar. We believe South Africa will prevail in this match since they have been impressive for a large portion of 2022.
