South Africa vs Australia World Cup 2023 Highlights
Australia won the toss and chose to bowl first. South Africa started their innings strong as opener Quinton De Kock and skipper Temba Bavuma hit some great shots. Australia dropped some catches in between, which strengthened South Africa’s position as both batters started batting fearlessly, though Temba Bavuma got out after some time. Quinton De Kock smashed a century, and batters afterward took South Africa to a score of 311 runs, which was above par on the pitch they were batting on.
Australia’s start in the chase was not what they expected as they lost the openers too early in the chase. Steve Smith also didn’t last on the crease too long as Kagiso Rabada got rid of him. Marnus Labuschagne was the only one who showed resistance to the South African’s bowlers and scored 46 runs, which was the highest from the Australian side. Australia was wiped out by South Africa on 177 runs.

South Africa vs Australia World Cup 2023 Highlights: Player Of The Match
South Africa’s wicket-keeper batter Quinton De Kock was named player of the match for his sublime century. Here’s what he said during post-match presentation.
“It was a great win for the boys, to be honest, we didn’t know how the pitch would play, we assessed the conditions beautifully and then applied ourselves well with the bat. “The guys who spent time on the wicket, got a hand on the conditions and then used their scoring options. 311 was an above par score, I have played here for the Lucknow team (in the IPL), it becomes harder to bat second”
