India will lock horns against South Africa on Sunday at Perth Stadium. The Men in Blue have a 100% record in the ongoing tournament as they have won two consecutive games against Pakistan and the Netherlands. The South African team kickstarted their T20 World Cup campaign by sharing points as rain played spoilsport in the match against Zimbabwe. But then they defeated Bangladesh by a huge margin of 104 runs.
The weather has played a huge role in this year’s edition as many matches have been abandoned because of rain. According to Australia's Bureau of Meteorology, there is a 50% chance of rain in Perth today.
ANI reported, “Australia's Bureau of Meteorology predicts partly cloudy skies and a medium (50%) chance of showers, most likely during this afternoon and early evening in Perth today.”
The fans of both teams would be hoping to see a thrilling encounter between both teams on Sunday.
