When: October 17, 2023 at 14:00 IST

Where: Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium, Dharamsala

What to expect: Mountain views and quirky architecture, a cabbage patch of an outfield - a properly small outfield - and a pitch that prompts even non-Asian teams to pick more than one spinner but that also rewards the quicks. And rain, although not enough, according to the forecast, to derail the match entirely.

Teams

South Africa

Given the combination of the dimensions of the outfield and the expected weather, maybe a second spinner isn't a good idea. The South Africans might also want to unleash their full fast bowling power ahead of the bigger games to come, if only to remember where their bowling bread is buttered. Thus Gerald Coetzee could return at the expense of Tabraiz Shamsi.

Tactics & strategy: If they bat first and use all their overs, a total in excess of 400 is a distinct possibility. It isn't often a South African team arrives at a tournament tipped as a batting threat, and even less often that they fulfill that promise.

But, having registered four centuries in their first two matches - two by the white-hot Quinton de Kock - there is no doubt South Africa's line-up is feared. Not the least of the upsides is that that takes some of the pressure off an attack that is without key members. Sisanda Magala, for instance - who is out with a knee injury - took 8/80 in two ODIs against the Dutch in South Africa in March and April.

Probable XI: Temba Bavuma (C), Quinton de Kock, Rassie van der Dussen, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, David Miller, Marco Jansen, Kagiso Rabada, Keshav Maharaj, Gerald Coetzee, Lungi Ngidi

Netherlands

There were no happier cricketers on the planet than the Dutch when they nailed down one of the last two places at the World Cup at the qualifiers in Zimbabwe in June and July. Now that they've lost to Pakistan and New Zealand at the main event, the smiles have no doubt faded. There's quality in their ranks and levels of planning and belief that could teach other teams a lesson, but it's difficult to imagine them leaving this tournament with good memories.

Tactics & strategy: The Netherlands' results don't make for good reading, but Vikramjit Singh, Bas de Leede and Colin Ackermann have scored half-centuries and de Leede took 4/62 against Pakistan. Improving will mean putting more performances like those together in one match.

As the South Africans know only too well, the Dutch have more than enough skill and grit to beat the best. But that's more easily done in T20Is. There are fewer places to hide their limitations in this format.

Probable XI: Vikramjit Singh, Max O'Dowd, Colin Ackermann, Bas de Leede, Teja Nidamanuru, Scott Edwards (C), Sybrand Engelbrecht, Roelof van der Merwe, Ryan Klein, Aryan Dutt, Paul van Meekeren
