Despite canada

The runners-up of the 2024 T20 World Cup edition registered an emphatic 57-run victory over Canada in the ninth match of Group D at the Narendra Modi Stadium, powered by a dominant batting display up front and a ruthless spell with the ball from Lungi Ngidi, who ensured there were no late nerves.

South Africa put together a great start thanks to Aiden Markham’s strong aggressive batting. His opening partnership with Quinton de Kock yielded an impressive 70 runs through excellent control of the match from the get-go. De Kock provided support and scored just 25 runs from 22 balls, whereas Markham was in sublime fashion beating his 50 as well as scoring 59 runs off 32 balls to give South Africa a strong advantage.
