Sri Lanka vs South Africa 4th Match ICC T20 World Cup 2024

Sri Lanka is set to take on South Africa in the fourth match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Monday, June 3.

Both teams, placed in Group D alongside the Netherlands, Nepal, and Bangladesh, are eager to start their campaigns with a win. Sri Lanka, led by spin all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga, is relying heavily on their strong spin unit and the experience of Angelo Mathews, who is making his sixth T20 World Cup appearance.

Meanwhile, South Africa, captained by Aiden Markram, boasts a formidable batting lineup with top-class finishers like David Miller, Heinrich Klaasen, and Tristan Stubbs. Despite their history of reaching knockout stages, South Africa has yet to secure a World Cup title. This match is crucial for both teams as they aim to gain early momentum in the tournament.
