Teams & Format
The two teams will take part in a series that will be played in the T20 format. The T20 format is the shortest of the three major styles of the game. In a T20 game, teams will have a maximum of 20 overs to bat and 20 overs in the field.
With just 120 deliveries to build a score, the T20 game sees batters trying to go big early. This simply means that the bowlers have the chance to take wickets, although they do also have to take a hammering if they do not bowl the right lines.
Both sides are blessed with a number of brilliant players with the bat and ball. This simply means that the battle between bat and ball is incredibly tight, with a poor line seeing the ball disappear into the stands, while bad shot choice can see the stumps uprooted.
Key Players & Prospects
| Player (Team) | Prospects |
|---|---|
| Jasprit Bumrah (India) | The best multi-formats bowler in the men's game, Jasprit Bumrah has an incredible ability to bowl accurately despite firing the ball in at high speeds. His yorker is a dangerous weapon, while his death bowling is nearly always on point. |
| Shubman Gill (India) | Batting at the top of the order, Shubman Gill has the ability to wrestle the momentum back for his side with intelligent batting, while he can also score quickly with field-splitting shots and big maximums. |
| Aiden Markram (South Africa) | Aiden Markram is arguably South Africa's best batter, and he will be tasked with trying to see off the new ball while trying to put his foot down and score quick runs for the Proteas. |
