South Africa will take on Afghanistan in Match 13 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday. The Proteas, led by Aiden Markram, arrive in good spirits following a commanding 57-run win over Canada in their tournament opener. That strong performance has bolstered their confidence, and with several of their group matches being played in India, South Africa will be keen to make the most of their growing familiarity with the conditions at this venue.
Afghanistan, meanwhile, will be looking to rebound from a narrow five-wicket defeat to New Zealand in their first match. Despite a bright start, they were unable to sustain their momentum, with Tim Seifert’s unbeaten 65 guiding New Zealand to victory. Facing a formidable South African side, Afghanistan will be aiming to elevate their game and deliver a much-improved performance in this pivotal contest.
