The third match of the Champions Trophy 2025 will see Team Afghanistan locking horns with South Africa, at the National Stadium in Karachi, on Friday, February 21. South Africa have an edge in the H2H having won 3 out of the 5 times these two sides have met each other. Bavuma will lead South Africa while Afghanistan will be led by Shahidi. These two sides also met in the WT20 2024 semis where South Africa came out on top. 

Match Expert Tips

The captain and vice-captains have been selected keeping the venue in mind. The National Stadium in Karachi is expected to assist the batters throughout the gane. There will be some help for the spinners in the middle overs. Afghanistan spinners should enjoy these conditions and we should have a good game.
