SA vs AFG: The T20 World Cup 2024 has reached its critical stage, with the semi-finals set to commence on June 27. South Africa will face Afghanistan at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Trinidad and Tobago. Although South Africa has won all their matches so far, their performances have not been entirely convincing. They had close encounters with the Netherlands and Nepal and narrowly avoided a slip-up against West Indies in their final Super 8 match.
