T20 World Cup 2024: USA vs South Africa – Stats Preview

The United States will square off against South Africa in the 41st match of the ongoing T20 World Cup at the ​​Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua on Wednesday. USA have impressed with their renditions and to make it to the Super 8 stage is a story in itself.

Their inexperienced players have stood shoulder-to-shoulder against the best players in the world and have shown that they can give them a run for their money. 

On the other hand, South Africa won all of their four matches in the group stage but played close encounters against the Netherlands, Bangladesh, and Nepal, managing to win by the skin of their teeth. Ergo, it would be a mistake to write off the USA as South Africa can crumble under pressure.

Stats Preview:

South African captain Aiden Markram needs two sixes to complete 50 maximums respectively in his T20I career.

SA opener Reeza Hendricks needs seven sixes to complete 50 sixes in T20Is.

Quinton de Kock needs five fours and seven sixes to reach 250 boundaries and 100 maximums respectively in T20I format.

South Africa gun fast bowler Anrich Nortje needs three wickets to complete 50 scalps in T20Is.

USA’s Nitish Kumar needs eight fours to complete 50 boundaries in T20Is.

Corey Anderson needs 10 fours to complete 50 boundaries in T20Is.

South Africa: Aiden Markram (c), Ottniel Baartman, Gerald Coetzee, Quinton de Kock, Bjorn Fortuin, Reeza Hendricks, Marco Jansen, Heinrich Klaasen, Keshav Maharaj, David Miller, Anrich Nortje, Kagiso Rabada, Ryan Rickelton, Tabraiz Shamsi, Tristan Stubbs

United States: Monank Patel (c), Aaron Jones, Andries Gous, Corey Anderson, Ali Khan, Harmeet Singh, Jessy Singh, Milind Kumar, Nisarg Patel, Nitish Kumar, Noshtush Kenjige, Saurabh Nethralvakar, Shadley Van Schalkwyk, Steven Taylor, Shayan Jahangir.
