In the forthcoming Twenty20 World Cup, which is scheduled to start on June 1, former cricket player Gautam Gambhir predicts that South Africa will struggle. In Group D of the massive competition, the Proteas are arguably in the “Group of Death” alongside Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and the Netherlands.
The southpaw predicted that although Temba Bavuma‘s squad will face challenges, he wants them to advance so that they can field stronger teams in the following round. In addition, Gambhir emphasized that South Africa should remain alert throughout the tournament’s opening round since there are few opportunities for a comeback in Twenty20 cricket.
Who knows, South Africa might make it through that death this time. Because you want to see elite teams in the Super 8, I hope they take that action. Speaking to Star Sports, Gautam Gambhir stated, “You want to see a competition where you are challenged.”
“South Africa will not have an easy time against the group you listed, as you have little chance of winning in the Twenty20 format. You don’t have time to recover if someone puts pressure on you. The 42-year-old stated, “I hope South Africa plays terrific cricket and makes it to the Super 8 at the very least.
One positive development about this T20 World Cup is the inclusion of the West Indies. Gautam Gambhir
After losing out on the T20 World Cup in 2022 due to qualifying issues, the West Indies are prepared to return. stars like Andre Russell and Nicholas Pooran should be included in the home World Cup, said Gambhir, who is thrilled to witness the comeback of the Caribbean stars.
The West Indies’ participation in the T20 World Cup is a positive thing since, as we all know, they can be very dangerous in this format. Players like Andre Russell and Nicholas Pooran should be seen when they play on their home field, according to Gambhir.
