TOSS
Canada won the toss and elected to bowl.
PREVIEW
South Africa would need to raise its recent form to challenge for the title as it opens its T20 World Cup campaign against Canada, a team short on match practice but looking to make a strong impression, in Ahmedabad on Monday.
South Africa has won only 12 out of the 32 games it has played since losing the 2024 T20 World Cup final to India in June 2024.
However, it now does have the emboldened belief of winning a world title, having ended the trophy drought with the World Test Championship (WTC) triumph last year.
WHEN AND WHERE TO WATCH
The T20 World Cup 2026 match between South Africa and Canada will be televised live on the Star Sports Network from 7 PM IST. The match will also be available for live streaming on the JioHotstar app and website.
