    T20 WC: SA Seek Perfect Ending To Group D Campaign Against Spirited UAE (Preview)

    By IANS News February 17, 2026 • 14:06 PM View: 149
    For Aiden Markram: For Aiden Markram-led South Africa, the hard work is already done. Three victories in as many games, including one coming off upstaging Afghanistan in a double Super Over, meant their place in the Super Eights was confirmed.

    But the Proteas side will be reluctant to treat their final Group D fixture against the spirited United Arab Emirates (UAE), to be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday morning, as a mere formality. Instead, their eyes will be on achieving their fourth straight win, which in turn will help them add more heft to their ‘they mean serious business’ identity in the Super Eights.

    The manner of their victories has been as significant – against New Zealand, South Africa produced a near-flawless performance. Marco Jansen dismantled the Blackcaps top order with career-best figures of 4-40, while Lungi Ngidi continued his steady accumulation at the top of the bowling charts. Kagiso Rabada, still sharpening himself back to full menace, had a tidy four-over spell.
