Protests erupt outside Kasba Police station as 3 arrested in alleged Kolkata college gang rape
In a highly anticipated encounter at the iconic Eden Gardens, Kolkata, India and South Africa are gearing up for a monumental clash in the ongoing Cricket World Cup 2023. With both teams already securing their spots in the semifinals, the match has garnered significant attention as the two powerhouses aim to solidify their positions in the points table.
The looming absence of Hardik Pandya in the Indian lineup has raised concerns, but reinforcements in the form of Mohammed Shami and Suryakumar Yadav have eased some worries. Indian skipper Rohit Sharma and South African captain Temba Bavuma are all set to lead their respective sides in what promises to be an enthralling battle.
Despite India's impressive unbeaten streak and Kohli's remarkable form, South Africa, led by the disciplined Bavuma, boasts a formidable lineup, including the likes of Kagiso Rabada, Quinton de Kock, and Aiden Markram, among others, all in top form. The historical significance of the fixture, considering India's previous World Cup loss to South Africa in 2011, has added an extra layer of intensity to the game. As cricket enthusiasts eagerly await the action-packed clash, the match is expected to be a true test of skill and character for both teams.
