South Africa are set to clash with Afghanistan in Match 13 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday, February 11.
Led by Aiden Markram, the Proteas head into the contest brimming with confidence after registering an emphatic 57-run win over Canada. With momentum on their side, South Africa will look to build on that strong start. Having most of their group-stage fixtures scheduled in India, they will aim to capitalize on their understanding of the conditions at the Ahmedabad venue.
Afghanistan, meanwhile, will be eager to recover from a five-wicket defeat to New Zealand in their tournament opener. Although they showed promise early on, they failed to maintain their intensity, as Tim Seifert’s unbeaten 65 powered New Zealand to victory. Afghanistan will be determined to put up a stronger display against the Proteas in what promises to be a crucial encounter.
