India will lock horns with South Africa in the T20 World Cup on Sunday. South Africa has won four of their last five head-to-head games against India. Can they continue their domination over India?

India Preview

India have been impressive in their recent games, having won all their fixtures in the World Cup, including a win in their last game against the Netherlands. India are one of the teams that haven’t faced defeat in the group stage, having beaten Pakistan in their opening match and the Netherlands in their last game. Their good form placed them in second place in Group 1 with four points.

India XI

Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Yastika Bhatia, Harmanpreet Kaur(c), Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh(wk), Deepti Sharma, Shreyanka Patil, Kranti Gaud, Shree Charni, Nandni Sharma.

South Africa Preview

South Africa regained their winning run after beating Pakistan in their last game, ending their two-game losing streak. In their last outing, Annerie Dercksen denied the Pakistan bowlers an early victory, going on the offensive to get off to a good start alongside Laura Wolvaardt. Fatima Sana with a late winning drama as she carries two wickets in the 17th over alongside De Klerk. South Africa have been struggling in this World Cup encounter, but their victory in their last game gives them hope. If they maintain their winning form, they might qualify for the semi-final playoff and advance further in this encounter. They sit 4th with two points in the Group 1 standings.

India vs South Africa Prediction

South Africa will surely secure a win here because they have been better in their recent encounters with India, having won four of their last five matches. The head-to-head series is enough to judge the match winner. Not only that, South Africa will come to this game with full energy as they would like to qualify for the semifinal playoff. My prediction is a win for South Africa, with 1xBet offering odds of 2.51.
