Captains' Call

Rizwan (Pakistan): "We're experimenting ahead of the Champions Trophy, taking it day by day. Salman Ali Agha bowled well, so we don't need extra spinners. Need to play good cricket today."

Bavuma (South Africa): "Stats suggest batting first is better, and the pitch looks good. We aim to put up a strong total. Klaasen bolsters our middle-order, and powerplay wickets will be key in these conditions."

A crucial match with both teams fine-tuning their squad before the Champions Trophy!
