ICC World Cup: NZ look to regain winning form against SA

For New Zealand, the Dharamsala leg didn't go as planned after four consecutive victories, and another loss could open the door for Afghanistan and Pakistan to make a run for semi-final qualification. On the other hand, if South Africa win, it will almost secure their place in the last-four bracket alongside India. Both teams have showcased impressive batting performances in most of their games, but the pitch at the Maharashtra Cricket Association ground in Gahunje hasn't been a batting paradise.

Will Suryakumar take Iyer's place once Hardik is back?

Suryakumar Yadav is an antithesis to what proverbial Mumbai school of batsmanship is all about -- dollops of doggedness in a fine mixture of style and class. Style and class has never been a problem with 'SKY'. He has given ample display of that in T20 cricket, a format he has bossed with remarkable ease. However some of his low scores in ODIs did raise questions if he is unable to blend a bit of serenity in his all or nothing approach, which is perfectly in sync with T20s but not the 50-over format.

Spin maestros Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja also contributed to the victory. However, Kuldeep was involved in an on-field incident, where he received a reprimand from captain Rohit.
