New York hosts the SA vs BAN T20 World Cup 2024 match on Monday, June 10. The match starts at 8 pm IST which is 10.30 am local time. This is the sixth match at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium.

South Africa and Bangladesh are part of Group D alongside, Sri Lanka, Netherlands, and Nepal. The Netherlands have defeated Nepal in their game and can even defeat the likes of South Africa Sri Lanka and Bangladesh as well.

This is a very open group with any team capable of beating any team. Nepal, the associate nation is probably a bit below par on experience and hence competitiveness.

The tournament so far has seen a big upset with the USA beating last year's finalists Pakistan in Dallas. They won the game on the Super Over sending shockwaves to the Pakistan National Cricket Team. USA are topping Group A at the moment with two back-to-back wins.

The T20 World Cup will be played across nine venues. Two teams from each group will make it to the Super 8s. The final will be played on June 29 in Barbados. So far the pitches have dictated the outcome of the contests. The Grand Prairie Stadium in Dallas, Texas has probably been the best out of the lot so far.
