In the upcoming IND vs SA match, India, under the leadership of captain Rohit Sharma, is set to take on a strong South African team at the iconic Eden Gardens stadium in Kolkata, with the match scheduled to start at 2 p.m. today. This clash is expected to be highly engaging as both teams currently occupy top positions on the ICC World Cup 2023 Points Table. India has achieved several significant milestones in this World Cup. They are the only team to have officially secured a place in the tournament’s knockout stages. The Indian cricket team has also maintained an unblemished record, winning all seven of their matches so far, despite the absence of star all-rounder Hardik Pandya in recent games. Unfortunately, the team received the news that the vice-captain, Hardik Pandya, will not be able to participate in the 2023 World Cup due to an ankle injury sustained during the Bangladesh game.
