SA vs BAN Dream11 Prediction Fantasy Cricket Tips Possible XI Pitch Report: ODI World Cup 2023 Match 23 | Wankhede Pitch Report

South Africa will take on Bangladesh in the 23rd match of the World Cup 2023. Both teams had distinct results in the previous game and will have different expectations from this game.

South Africa registered a thumping 229-run win over England in their last game to solidify their position in the points table. Heinrich Klaasen (109) notched up a magnificent century, while Reeza Hendricks (85), Rassie van der Dussen (60) and Marco Jansen (75) also contributed handsomely to help the Proteas post a mammoth 399/7 in the first innings. In the bowling department, Gerald Coetzee starred with three wickets, while Lungi Ngidi and Marco Jansen also dismissed two batters each to complete the job.

Meanwhile, Bangladesh suffered their third defeat in a row against India in the previous game. Batting first, they could post only 256/8, with Tanzid Hasan (51) and Litton Das (66) contributing significantly, whereas Mushfiqur Rahim (38) and Mahmudullah (46) also chipped in with useful runs. Their bowlers were underwhelming, as only Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who took two wickets, looked threatening.

In this article, we will look at the key players to watch, stats, pitch report and Dream11 prediction as part of our World Cup fantasy cricket tips for this crucial match.

ODI World Cup 2023 Match 22 – SA vs BAN Possible Playing XIs

Temba Bavuma had to sit out due to an upset stomach in the previous game. He will return to the side, and Reeze Hendricks will have to sit out again despite a fabulous knock.

Shakib Al Hasan missed the last game due to an injury, and a call on him might be taken in the morning. He is likely to return. Taskin Ahmed won’t play again due to a shoulder injury.

Bangladesh: 1. Tanzid Hasan, 2. Litton Das, 3. Najmul Hossain Shanto, 4. Mehidy Hasan Miraz, 5. Shakib Al Hasan (c), 6. Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), 7. Towhid Hridoy, 8. Mahmudullah, 9. Mustafizur Rahman, 10. Shoriful Islam, 11. Hasan Mahmud.

SA vs BAN Dream11 Prediction – Fantasy Cricket Tips

South Africa:

  • Quinton de Kock has 428 runs at an average of 53.50 and a strike rate of 103.63 in nine ODI innings against Bangladesh. He also has two fifties and a century against them. Quinton is in form and will look to score big.
  • Temba Bavuma will return in this game. He has 696 runs at an average of 63.27 and a strike rate of 99 in 13 ODI innings this year. Bavuma also has two fifties and three centuries.
  • Rassie van der Dussen has 139 runs at an average of 46.33 and a strike rate of 86.87 in four ODI innings against Bangladesh. He also has one fifty and a century in this World Cup. Rassie should enjoy batting in Wankhede.
  • Aiden Markram is a strong pick for Dream11 fantasy teams. He will contribute with both bat and ball. He has 111 runs at a strike rate of 93.27 in three ODI innings against Bangladesh. Markram also has two wickets against them.
  • Heinrich Klaasen will be desperate to get back to the park. He has 198 runs at an average of 49.50 and a strike rate of 139.43 in four innings this World Cup. Klaasen made 109 off 67 deliveries in the previous match.
  • Kagiso Rabada has 19 wickets at an average of 21.47 and a strike rate of 26.36 in 10 ODI innings against Bangladesh. He also has two five-wicket hauls against them. Rabada’s recent form has been terrific, and he will look to extend his good run.

Bangladesh:

  • Litton Das looked good in the last game against India. He has two fifties in four innings this World Cup and will enjoy batting in Wankhede. Litton Das’ runs from the top will be crucial for Bangladesh.
  • Najmul Hossain Shanto hasn’t been as consistent in the World Cup 2023, but he is a quality batter. Najmul has 772 runs at an average of 45.41 and a strike rate of 84.64 in 18 ODI innings this year. He also has six fifties and two centuries.
  • Shakib Al Hasan is a must-pick in the fantasy teams. He has 492 runs at an average of 35.14 and a strike rate of 73.43 in 16 ODI innings against South Africa. Shakib also has 16 wickets at an average of 45.56 in 17 ODI innings against them.
  • Mushfiqur Rahim will again have to step up against a quality bowling lineup of South Africa. He has 312 runs at an average of 31.20 and a strike rate of 74.64 in 11 ODI innings against South Africa. Rahim also has two fifties and a century against them.
  • Shoriful Islam can swing the ball early on. The surface in Mumbai offers assistance for the new-ball bowlers, and Shoriful has swung the ball in the previous games of the tournament. If he snares a few wickets from the top, South Africa will feel some pressure.
