T20 WC: Canada Elect To Bowl Against South Africa
Canada captain Dilpreet Bajwa said, "We will bowl first. The boys are excited rather than anxious. We’re playing against South Africa, who were runners-up in the last World Cup, so it’s a big challenge. Everyone is very happy to play at this stadium and is really looking forward to a night game. It looks like a very good batting track. However, because of the conditions and the possibility of dew later on, we decided to bowl first. Let’s see how it plays out.
“Our preparation has been good. Because of the weather back home in Canada, we couldn’t get enough cricket there, but thanks to our board, we had a pre-tour in Sri Lanka. We played some very good practice matches there, including against Sri Lanka A, which helped us a lot going into the World Cup.
