South Africa schedule for World Cup 2023 is released and the South African contingent is ready to battle it out in the ICC World Cup 2023 in India. The Proteas have already started their preparations and geared up to seize their maiden title. Unfortunately, the Men in Green have failed to win any coveted World title and will aim to seal their first-ever prestigious championship.
South Africa failed to impress and put up a satisfactory show at the 2019 World Cup in England. They qualified for the semi-finals of the 2015 World Cup in Australia but lost a nail-biting fixture against New Zealand. Their fortunes have always been against the odds in major World titles and they will certainly look to change the same in the upcoming championship.
South Africa will begin their proceedings at the World Cup against Qualifier II winner of the ICC World Cup 2023 Qualifiers at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. They will then take on Australia in Lucknow on October 13 (Friday). Their high-voltage clash against India will take place at the Eden Gardens on November 5 (Sunday). Their final pool stage fixture will be against Afghanistan on November 10 (Friday) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
In no surprise, Temba Bavuma will likely lead the South African contingent at the marquee event. Rilee Rossouw, Heinrich Klaasen and Aiden Markram will strengthen the batting attack whereas Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Keshav Maharaj and Tabraiz Shamsi will lead the prominent bowling attack.
