New Delhi. The 21st match of T20 World Cup 2024 will be played between Bangladesh and South Africa today on 10th June. Both the teams are ready for this. Both the teams will be eyeing to win this match and move forward in the tournament. Sri Lanka will also be eyeing this match. Because if Bangladesh wins this match, it may be difficult for Sri Lanka to qualify. They would like South Africa to win this match. Let’s understand why this is so.
Actually, Sri Lanka’s team is currently at the bottom of the points table. They have played 2 matches. But they have not won any match. On the other hand, South Africa is at number one with 2 wins and Bangladesh is second. The net run rate of both is also in plus. If Bangladesh wins this match, then it will also have 4 points and its chances of reaching the Super 8 will also increase. Sri Lanka will have to win both the remaining matches by a big margin to reach the top 2. If this does not happen then they will be out of the tournament. Therefore, Sri Lanka’s team would want South Africa to win and stop Bangladesh from getting 2 points.

If we talk about head to head in T20 World Cup, South Africa has had the upper hand here. South Africa and Bangladesh have clashed 3 times in T20 World Cup so far. During this time South Africa has had the upper hand. The African team has won all three matches out of 3. On the other hand, Bangladesh has not won a single match so far. This is certainly a good sign for Sri Lanka.
