T20 Cricket WC Survivor Pool of Pools — Pick Your Winner (USA vs South Africa)

679 sats \ 44 comments \ @Coinsreporter 18 Jun Stacker_Sports

Howdy Stackers!!

It's Super Eight Time!! It's USA vs South Africa!!

We'll have a different post for every match from now.

We'll say a missed participation a maiden from now.

We'll say 'runout check' when someone loses for the first time, for the second time 'DRS Taken' and for the third time 'Clean bold'.

Umpire Warning:

You won't get the opportunity to rejoin the pool from hereon.

Now let's talk a bit about our favourites (actually my favourite) USA.

Big picture - Can USA slay another giant?

Before the start of the T20 World Cup 2024, the ICC had allotted pre-decided seedings to the eight top teams. A2 was given to Pakistan. The match timings were set according to what would be prime time in Pakistan and the rest of the subcontinent. But then a USA-sized blow hit Pakistan in their very first match and the tournament hasn't been the same since.

So USA, in their first T20 World Cup appearance, are now A2, and will kickstart the Super Eight stage against South Africa. As both teams head over to North Sound in Antigua - USA aren't quite at home anymore, note - they would hope for two things: better batting conditions and no rain.

A great run by US but I think the magic wears off a bit playing on neutral soil so I am taking South Africa.

I’m backing the USA for this one. It’s a bold choice but I just think that SA haven’t been great and have lost quite a few wickets to teams like Nepal & the Netherlands. The USA have pulled off some solid results and gave India a decent game.
