There were not many people, even experts, who anticipated the USA to proceed in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. I do not remember a single name that had thought the USA could pull off a brilliant run in the group stages, but they are there among the eight happy teams in the Super 8s.
One has to admit that the USA got support from the weather in Florida in the match against Ireland to qualify for the Super 8s. Still, it’s not to cast any aspersions on their encouraging run so far in the tournament. They humbled Canada and Pakistan in back-to-back matches as a part of their wins. Their only loss came against India, followed by a washed-out game against Ireland.
To beat a team like Pakistan requires strong effort and resilience. They had to not let it slip away at any moment throughout the game and then to shine in the super over, it was nothing but a sensational effort from the Americans. They would hope to continue their winning run and take on South Africa in their next challenge.
South Africa is one of the teams that got 4/4 in the first round of the T20 World Cup 2024. The Protea got better of Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Netherlands and Nepal during the first group stage to comfortably seal a place in the Super 8s.
Though they got 4/4 in the first round, not one of them came convincingly. The batters don’t seem to have got their mojo so far in the tournament with the pitches offering a lot of assistance to the bowlers. It remains to be seen how they turn up against the unfancied USA on June 19 at the Sir Viv Richards Stadium.

Sir Viv Richards Stadium Pitch Report, USA vs SA
The pitch has completely outplayed the batters at this venue. It has favoured the bowlers and is anticipated to continue doing so. Bowling first has been the key with three out of four wins in the tournament coming while chasing. The forecast shows a hot and humid day in business for the players. Some showers are predicted as well in the evening, but it won’t last long.
