The match of today which is India vs South Africa brings in a lot of excitement and joy for Cricket lovers. On one hand where India has eluded the ICC Trophy for 11 years, South Africa has never got this far.
Both the teams have not lost even a single match this year. This is happening for the first time that both teams have not lost a single match and are in the finals undefeated. For India, this could possibly the last time where we see Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli playing together in the T20s. This could also possibly the last time for Rahul Dravid as their coach. A win and a trophy would bid a good farewell for all of them.
On Thursday, India defeated the champions of England by a total of 68 runs and made their way to the finals. Where, South Africa destroyed Afghanistan by 9 wickets and made their way towards the finals against India. Since 1998 in Bangladesh, this would be the first time for South Africa to be in senior men’s finals. It is hard to predict or say who will be winning the match as both the teams have been undefeated this whole season. South Africa has never come so far in the WCs.
It is just a cup right?
What does it feel for South Africa? They have never come so far in the WCs. It will be like a fairy-tale imagination for them to win their first World Cup. On the other hand, about India, there are some Indians who still get flashbacks of November 19th 2023. Rahul Dravid has his countable days left in the position as a coach. He has managed to bring the team out of their comfort zone and play wherever it feels possible. For 40 overs, all they will be holding will just be a bat and a ball but after those 40 overs, who wins and who loses?

Captains’ words:
Rahul Dravid said “I want to climb the Mount Everest because it is there. Similarly, I want to win the world cup because it is there. It is not for anyone or anybody. It is there to win.” Aiden Markram said “it is a game. Someone has to lose to make the other one win. You should have belief. It does a lot for changing the room and the vibe.”
