In the 23rd match of the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023, Bangladesh (BAN) will be taking on South Africa (SA) in Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Bangladesh is in deep trouble in the tournament, having lost three matches in a row, after winning their first match of the tournament against Afghanistan. The challenge will not be any easier for them against South Africa, which looks a formidable side at the moment.

South Africa has been one of the best teams in the tournament till now. With 3 wins in 4 matches, South Africa is currently placed in the third position in the tournament. Barring the game against the Netherlands, the Proteas won all their other matches comprehensively. Interestingly, South Africa defeated teams like Sri Lanka, Australia, and England by huge margins, despite losing to the Netherlands in Dharamshala.

SA vs BAN: Pitch Report

Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai has traditionally been a high-scoring venue. Batters love playing here. The red soil in the stadium helps the batters to enjoy their game. Spinners who can turn the ball can be effective in Mumbai. But otherwise, the finger spinners might struggle. The pacers might get some assistance early on in the innings due to swing. But as the ball becomes softer, it is easy for the batters to score runs. One can expect a high-scoring game at the venue yet again.

SA vs BAN: Weather Report

Weather in Mumbai is likely to remain hot for the match between South Africa and Bangladesh. The last time a match was played at the venue, between England and South Africa, all the players found it difficult to play in the middle. The heat was high and so was humidity. It is set to be nothing different, as the temperature is likely to be as high as 37 degrees centigrade in daytime. The humidity will make the play difficult for the batters. But a full match can be expected between both the teams with no interruption of rain.

SA vs BAN: Head-to-Head Records

South Africa has an edge over Bangladesh in the head-to-head record in ODIs. But when it comes to the ODI World Cup, the record seems to nullify. In the 4 matches between the two teams in the tournament, both teams have a couple of wins against each other. Bangladesh won the most recent match between the two teams in the ODI World Cup in 2019. The two teams are yet to face each other in the ODI World Cup in India.
