Both the teams and the officials are out for the National Anthems. It's Bangladesh's National anthem first, followed by South Africa's National Anthem.

Shakib Al Hasan, the captain of Bangladesh, says that he is fully fit. Informs that he comes back into the side in place of Towhid Hridoy. Mentions that their win against South Africa in the 2019 ODI World Cup gives them a lot of confidence. Reckons that today is another important game and they will have to be at their best. Shares that they would have batted first as well but do not mind bowling if they can restrict South Africa to a chaseable total.

South Africa's stand-in skipper Aiden Markram says that they will bat first. Adds the conditions have not changed much since the last game here and they will look to bat under the sun and set up a good total. Mentions that this World Cup has shown that there is no easy match and anyone can beat anyone on the day and they will take that and come in confident for every game ahead. Informs that Lungi Ngidi misses out due to a slight niggle and he is replaced by Lizaad Williams.

PITCH REPORT -  Nasser Hussain is pitchside. He starts by saying that square boundaries on either side are 60 and 66 metres. Adds that the straight boundary will be 74 metres long. Dinesh Karthik joins him and says that bowlers who hit the deck will be most effective on this surface. Feels that bowling between 7 to 9-metre lengths will help the bowlers get the most out of the surface. Also says that this is a surface similar to the game between England and South Africa. Further adds that the conditions suit Bangladesh but the pitch will suit South Africa. Nasser ends by saying that the team winning the toss will opt to bat first.

On the other hand, Bangladesh initiated their campaign with a convincing six-wicket win. However, they couldn't maintain the momentum from their initial victory, suffering losses to England, New Zealand, and India. Despite their recent heavy defeat against India, Bangladesh still gleaned some positives. Players like Litton Das, who scored 66, and Tanzid Hasan, with a half-century, displayed their batting prowess. Additionally, Mehidy Hasan made a meaningful contribution with a two-wicket haul. In terms of their historical encounters, South Africa holds a dominant record against Bangladesh in ODIs, leading 18-6 in their head-to-head matchups. In World Cup matches, both teams have played each other four times, with Bangladesh winning twice and South Africa emerging victorious on two occasions. We are all set for match number 23 to start soon from Mumbai between South Africa and Bangladesh. Stay tuned for the toss updates coming up.

South Africa commenced their campaign with emphatic victories against Sri Lanka and Australia. Their batters broke several records during the Sri Lanka match, securing a resounding win by a margin of 102 runs. They continued their dominance by defeating Australia with an astonishing 134-run margin. However, their stellar start took a significant hit when they suffered an unexpected defeat at the hands of the Netherlands, the lone associate nation in the World Cup, losing by 38 runs. This historic win marked the Netherlands' first-ever victory against a Test-playing nation in a World Cup, somewhat dampening South Africa's previous triumphs. Nevertheless, the Proteas swiftly rebounded, demolishing the defending champions, England, by a massive 229 runs in their last outing. South Africa will bring plenty of positives into their upcoming match, particularly the stellar batting performances of Heinrich Klaasen, Reeza Hendricks, and Marco Jansen. Klaasen shone with a century, smashing 109 runs from just 67 balls. Reeza Hendricks contributed with 85 runs off 75 deliveries, while Marco Jansen delivered an unbeaten innings of 75 runs from 42 balls.

The 2023 World Cup match number 23 is set to kick off at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, featuring South Africa facing off against Bangladesh. These teams have had divergent campaigns, with South Africa currently sitting in third place, boasting three wins and one defeat, while Bangladesh finds themselves in the seventh position with one win and three losses.

... MATCH DAY ...

We are awaiting match 23 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 where South Africa will take on Bangladesh at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Both teams have played 4 matches and are placed third and sixth on the points table respectively. The Proteas have only lost 1 match against the Netherlands but have won the remaining 3 quite comfortably. They currently have the best NRR among all the teams owing to their aggressive batting approach. In their last match, they absolutely battered the English bowlers with half-centuries from Reeza Hendricks, Rassie van der Dussen, and Marco Jansen. The star knock was of the centurion Heinrich Klaasen who scored 109 runs of just 67 balls. The stand-in skipper, Aiden Markram, also helped keep the partnership going but was dismissed before he could reach his half-century. They finished their innings just under the 400-run mark. Their bowlers also didn't show any mercy on their opposition. Gerald Coetzee scalped 3 wickets but Lungi Ngidi with his 2 wickets was the most economical. South Africa has already shown us the strength of their batting unit and their capability of putting up massive targets on the board for the opposition to chase. This team looks like a fierce one and should not be taken lightly at all. Bangladesh, on the other hand, is having a kind of hot and cold campaign in this tournament. They started off well with a win against the Afghans but have lost their remaining three games in a row. Their most recent loss was against India where they could not defend a good score put on the board. Litton Das and Tanzid Hasan are in good form and are giving sold starts to the team. The topic for concern will be the middle-order batters who looked out of touch in their last game. Mahmudullah at the end gave a strong finish pushing his team over the 250-run mark. Their bowling unit also couldn't handle the pressure when they were being attacked and allowed the opposition batters to get settled on the pitch. Mehidy Hasan shone out among the bowlers as he took a couple of wickets and was the most economical. They will try and break their losing streak in this match so that they have a better chance of qualifying for the semi-finals. This is expected to be a high-octane encounter. Will the Proteas come out victorious or will we see another upset at the hands of Bangladesh? Time will tell.
