India vs South Africa Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
One of the main reasons for India’s success in this tournament is the fact they have utilised powerplay this term. In the last six games only once India have scored under 50 runs in the powerplay. India has managed to score 79, 63, 63, 35 and 60 in the first ten overs in the last five games. Only twice in seven games India has conceded more runs in the powerplay which makes us believe India would score well in the first ten overs in the upcoming fixture.
Temba Bavuma hasn’t had a great World Cup thus far. The South African skipper has played five games thus far and has managed to score 8, 35, 16, 28 and 24 averaging 22.2 runs thus far. In four of the five games, Bavuma has fallen short of required runs set by the bookmakers which makes us believe Bairstow would score low once again in the upcoming game against India.

India vs South Africa Betting Odds
South Africa to score more sixes than India
India and South Africa go head to head in what has the potential to be one of the games of the tournament. Both sides have just stormed past teams in this tournament. On one hand, India has been pretty flawless in this tournament as they have registered seven wins in seven games and need a win to seal the top spot in group stages. On the other hand, South Africa has had a monstrous campaign as they have swept aside every single team apart from Netherlands in this tournament. With 82 sixes, South Africa has hit the most sixes in the tournament. With 48 sixes, India are fourth on the table. In the last five games, South Africa has managed to hit 5, 13, 19, 8 and 15 averaging 12 sixes a game. On the other hand India has managed to hit 8, 9, 7, 4 and 9 averaging 7.4 sixes a game which is far below the rate at which South Africa have been hitting sixes this term. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact, South Africa has hit more sixes than their opponents in each of the last six matches which makes us believe they would score more sixes than India in the upcoming game and you should take this opportunity to make some quick financial gains.
