    Narendra Modi Stadium: In a pulsating Group D encounter at the Narendra Modi Stadium, South Africa and Afghanistan played out a sensational contest in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, forcing the match into a double super over after two explosive innings before the Proteas finally clinched a win.

    Afghanistan captain Rashid Khan won the toss and opted to field as the team eyed their first win of the tournament. Early morning conditions offered some assistance to the bowlers, and Afghanistan made the most of it, keeping the South African batters in check during the first three overs. Fazalhaq Farooqi struck first, trapping South Africa captain Aiden Markram with a clever slower delivery to mid-off.
