The winning team of this semi-final will be playing with the winner of the first semi-final in the final at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on Sunday, November 19. Temba Bavuma's side have had a strong run overall but a couple of rude jolts along the way. After thrashing the likes of Australia and England, the Proteas received an eye-opener when the Dutch beat them in Dharamsala in the league stage.

Then, after wins over Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, Bavuma's men almost threw it away against Pakistan before Keshav Maharaj's heroics pulled it through. However, South Africa could not stand a chance against the unbeaten India at Eden Gardens.

As for the five-time world champions Australia, they too had a few hiccups along the way. An early defeat to the Proteas by eight wickets wasn't helpful, and losing to India despite having them on the mat at 5/3 at one stage, must have affected them psychologically.

Pat Cummins' side will look to forget their previous encounter against South Africa and start afresh and with the likes of Glenn Maxwell and Mitchell Marsh hitting form at the right time, the Aussies will definitely be geared up for this clash.
