Match 45 of the T20 World Cup 2024 promises to be an exciting encounter as England (ENG) and South Africa (SA) are set to face off in the Group 2 Super 8 clash. The two are scheduled to meet at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St Lucia, on Friday (June 21).
England did not have a great start to their tournament—winning two out of four league matches—but they somehow managed to make it to the Super 8 stage. However, an eight-wicket thrashing of hosts West Indies in the opener ensured the defending champions would not start the second round on the back foot.
