ODI World Cup 2023, Match 23: Bangladesh vs South Africa Match Preview

Match 23 of the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023 will feature a clash between Bangladesh and South Africa at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Tuesday, October 24. Bangladesh will be coming on the back of a loss in their previous game, whereas South Africa will look to approach the game with confidence after a win in their last one.

Bangladesh took on the Indian team in their last game. The side fell prey to the brilliant form of the hosts, and as India maintained their winning run, Bangladesh succumbed to a hefty defeat. As the clash against South Africa looms around the corner, the side will look to put in an improved performance.

On the other hand, South Africa come into the clash after a magnificent win against defending champions England, and on the back of major confidence, the Proteas will look to put in another good performance.
