Check Toss update and playing XI below
In-form New Zealand and South Africa are taking on each other in the Group C match 24 of the T20 World Cup 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on February 14, 2026 (Saturday).
Both teams have won their first two matches and are favourites to qualify for the Super Eight. Either of the team, who wins today's match will very much make their place confirm in the Super Eight.
With in-form batters and skilled bowlers, New Zealand will look to win this game and make their place in Super Eight secure. South Africa meanwhile, ended up crossing the line narrowly in the tied encounter against Afghanistan. Although they have won two games as well, the second was hard fought and showed the vulnerabilities of the South Africa side. A loss here can wreck their confidence.
New Zealand are currently placed at the top spot in the points table in Group D, while South Africa are at the second place with the net run-rate slightly lesser than group-toppers New Zealand.
