A dress rehearsal for the final? India have been an unstoppable force in this competition, pummelling all seven of their opponents so far, with a spot in the semi-finals already wrapped up.

Their most recent victory came against Sri Lanka and was their most devastating - a 302 run win, which is the fourth largest margin of victory in ODI history.

South Africa, meanwhile, have been the most exciting team of the tournament. An explosive batting line-up has seen them break the record for the most sixes ever hit in a World Cup, and taken them to a tally of six wins from seven matches. Their only defeat so far came in a shock loss to the Netherlands.

South Africa will be desperate to bat first, having put up mammoth scores when batting before their opponents. The two times they have had to chase, they have lost one (against the Dutch) and snuck home by one wicket against Pakistan.

India v South Africa key player to watch

Temba Bavuma & Quinton de Kock (South Africa)

South Africa’s opening batters have the toughest job in world cricket ahead of them - facing the Indian fast bowlers.

The trio of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami are the most fearsome, borderline perfect, seam-bowling attack in the world - and it is up to De Kock and Bavuma to see them off and give the rest of their powerful batting line-up the chance to shine later in the innings.
