AUS vs SA Preview: South Africa will fight against Australia to remove the tag of chokers in, the second semi-final today


Posted on 16th Nov 2023 11:02 am by rohit kumar

Every cricket lover will probably remember the disappointed faces of Lance Klusener at Edgbaston and AB de Villiers at Auckland. When the South African team faces five-time champions Australia in the semi-finals of the World Cup on Thursday, it will intend to overcome these bitter memories of defeat in the last four matches and the 'chokers' (those who succumbed to the pressure). Will have to be removed.

 

Every South African fan hates the word 'chokers' and the Australian team, accustomed to winning big matches, would like to rub salt into its wounds once again. In his World Cup debut in 1992 against England, he lost the semi-final due to a calculation error due to rain rules. In 1999, after the match against Australia was tied, he had to be dropped due to poor run rate. In the year 2015, Grant Elliott played the only memorable innings of his career at Eden Park.

 

South African captain Temba Bavuma said, 'We know that this is a stigma on the South African team and we have to overcome it. Until we win the trophy, that mark will always be there. However, till now I have not heard this word in practice.

 

Apart from being out for 83 runs in the league match against India on November 5 at the same ground and the unexpected defeat at the hands of the Netherlands, South Africa has performed brilliantly so far. Four of his top six batsmen have scored centuries. Wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock has scored 591 runs so far.

 

Statistics between the two teams

Both the teams have clashed a total of 109 times in ODIs. Australia has won 50 of these matches, while South Africa has won 55 matches. Three matches were tied and one match remained inconclusive. At the same time, both teams have come face to face seven times in the World Cup. Australia has won three matches and South Africa has also won three matches during this period. A match is tied. Both the teams have met twice in the World Cup semi-finals. Out of these, Australia won one match and one was tied.
