Pakistan cricket team during practice before their match against Afghanistan in Chennai

A bruised and hurt Pakistan team take on a high-flying South Africa side in the ICC World Cup 2023 fixture at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Friday. Babar Azam's men recently lost to Afghanistan at the same venue and with the hopes of a semi-final on the line, they are in a must-win situation against an in-form Proteas side that have just lost one game so far. Babar Azam has had a standard WC so far with the bat but the team has been highly criticised back home by former players and pundits. (Match Blog |?Scorecard | Full Coverage)

Lethargic fielding, average powerplays and insipid bowling are some of the criticisms that have been hurled at the Men In Green back hime in Pakistan. The 1992 WC champions sit fifth in the points table but with two wins and three defeats in five games played. If Pakistan end up losing this game as well, the hopes of making in the semis will end with it too.

As for South Africa, the Proteas are in fine form in this tourament. Barring the upset defeat at the hands of the Netherlands in Dharamsala, the Proteas have struck over 300+ scores, three times in this tournament. Aiden Markam, Quinton de Kock and Heinrich Klaasen have all contributed with the bat up the order. Kagiso Rabada and co. have been brilliant with the ball and the fielding has been great too. South Africa could almost seal their semi-final spot with a win against a battered and bruised Pakistan in Chennai.

Pakistan and South Africa have faced each other 82 times in the ODIs with the Proteas winning 51 and the Men In Green clinching 30 wins. 1 game has ended in No Result.
