    T20 WC: Henry, Neesham Return As New Zealand Elect To Bowl Against South Africa

    By IANS News March 04, 2026 • 18:50 PM View: 176
    West Indies Super Eights: Fast bowler Matt Henry has returned to New Zealand’s playing eleven as captain Mitchell Santner won the toss and elected to bowl first against South Africa in the first semi-final of 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup at the Eden Gardens on Wednesday.

    The winner of this clash will qualify for the final to be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. South Africa have won in all five of their previous meetings against New Zealand in the competition’s history.

    The sides, however, have never faced each other in the knockout stages of the tournament. In 50-over ICC events, New Zealand hold the edge by winning a quarter-final and two semi-finals over South Africa.
