In my view I would opt for Team India, as they are way improved in their bowling aspects which as a proud factor for everyone in the nation.
ENG vs SA ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips, Cricket World Cup 2023
England have brushed aside oppositions with clinical ease in the T20 World Cup so far. With four wins in four matches and a net run rate well above 3, the Three Lions are virtually already in the semi-finals. And barring a mathematical miracle, top spot in the cutthroat Group 1 is also sealed. But momentum is key in T20 cricket, and England will be careful not to lose any ahead of another ICC knockout challenge.
Meanwhile, South Africa's future isn't entirely in their own hands, with their defeat to Australia earlier in the Super 12 stage putting them in the position they're in right now. The Proteas will be knocked out if they fail to claim the two points on offer in Sharjah, and if Australia beat West Indies, they will need to beat England by a sizeable margin to qualify.
All three of South Africa's victories in the T20 World Cup thus far have come while chasing. The win over Sri Lanka was arguably left too late, but the Proteas vanquished Bangladesh and West Indies with consummate ease. If they're asked to set a total, however, they might not have enough in the batting tank.
Off-field controversies aside, Quinton de Kock has had a disappointing T20 World Cup so far. He has made no notable contributions, and a change in his opening partner hasn't brought about a change in his fortunes. Temba Bavuma has played a couple of important knocks, but his strike rate could cause problems on any day where runs are not at a premium.
South Africa's middle order, comprising of Aiden Markram, Rassie van der Dussen and David Miller, looks fairly solid on paper. But while Van der Dussen hasn't done much in the T20 World Cup to justify his high batting ranking, Miller has had only one serious challenge in the middle - it must be said that he passed it with flying colors, though.
Nevertheless, a couple of early wickets could seriously rattle South Africa, especially if they bat first. England have been so ruthless in the T20 World Cup that they haven't even needed the batting services of two of their most in-form players - Moeen Ali and Liam Livingstone. Jos Buttler and Jason Roy have done the heavy lifting at the top of the order, with even skipper Eoin Morgan finding form in the previous game.
Tymal Mills has been ruled out of the tournament with a quadriceps strain, but England have capable replacements. If Mark Wood isn't fit to make a much-anticipated return to the playing XI, David Willey might enter the fray to keep the left-arm option intact.
England are a formidable white-ball side and have the firepower to beat South Africa more often than not. Unless they choose to rest and rotate ahead of the playoffs, which is unlikely since their last game was a good five days ago, Morgan's men should be able to go through the Super 12 phase unbeaten.
Match 20 of the 2023 Cricket World Cup sees England and South Africa go head-to-head at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. England, the 2019 Cricket World Cup Champions, have won one and lost two so far with their victory coming against Bangladesh and their last loss a shock defeat to Afghanistan. South Africa got off to a brilliant start with wins over Sri Lanka and Australia but then suffered a shock loss of their own when they were beaten by the Netherlands by 38 runs in Match 15 on Tuesday. Read on as we preview this match.
Other than INDIA, who I'd rather predict as the champions is English men's in their own home conditions could grab the attention of everyone as their side is more dangerous side ever with fabulous “Stoke” in their side.
My predictions:
1st semifinal: South Africa Vs England
Winnersf1: England
2nd semifinal: India Vs Australia
Winnersf2: India
Finale (grand): INDIA VS ENGLAND
Winner: INDIA
They will recap their moments as they did in 2013 but with slight change as lead by Stunning ggeniusVirat who owned everyone's heart undoubtedly.
