Temba Bavuma
AUS vs SA, ODI World Cup 2023: The second semi-final match of the ODI World Cup was played between South Africa and Australia. The South African team had to face defeat in this match. By losing the match by 3 wickets, they also lost the chance to reach the finals. This defeat was very painful for South Africa. His team has lost in the semi-finals for the fifth time. After performing well throughout the tournament, the South African captain looked extremely disappointed with the semi-final defeat. Temba Bavuma also explained the reason behind the defeat. He clearly said at what point in the match he lost the match.
What did Bavuma say?
After the defeat in the semi-final match, Temba Bavuma said that it cannot be expressed in words, first of all congratulations to Australia. Best wishes to him for the finals. He played really well today. The way we started with bat and ball was the turning point of this match, that’s where we lost the game. Australia played aggressive cricket in bowling conditions which really put us under pressure. When you are 24/4 you always have to struggle to score a good score. When Miller and Klaasen were there we were gaining some momentum but unfortunately it didn’t last long. Miller’s innings was brilliant. To do so in such a pressure situation and in a World Cup semi-final was extraordinary.
Australia scored around 70 in the first 10 of the second innings of the match and this really gave the rest of their players a chance to settle down. Markram and Maharaj were brilliant and really put them under pressure. We had chances, tough chances that we missed, if we had kept them it could have been a little closer.
Gave this statement regarding De Kock
Temba Bavuma heaped praise on Gerald Coetzee He said that as a young player, he was really a warrior for us, there was not much going on for the seamers, but him coming around the wicket and taking the wicket of Smith was incredible. Was. He was having cramps but still wanted to continue bowling. He also talked about Quinton de Kock where he said that Quinton might have wanted to end his career in a different way, regardless of the result I think he will remember his time. He will go down as one of the greatest players of South African cricket.
