The match report by the Veteran: The 10th match of the world cup 2023 and this tournament yet to produce any close contest. This match had all the ingredients but Australia surrendered timdily against the South African batting, bowling as well as fielding. They might need to rethink their strategy and take some drastic measures to qualify for next round.

In the IL Master group the Chupe Rustam bounced back strongly to get his second winning cap. After missing one match he was struggling to get his rhythm back and this might be the one which changed everything. Chupe Rustam is one of the most consistent masters and true to his name he always has some great tactics hidden in his sleeve. This one was not that. He did not need any last minute trick. He was at top from the very first ball to the last ball. Great game it is Chupe Rustam. Keep it up.

The second is the Ingenious. Ingenious joined the tournament late and then had a very bad start with 2 consecutive wooden spoons. Looks like she is slowly but surely coming back into the zone. However, long way to go. So, best of luck for that. Congrats for getting the second positon.

The wooden spoon went to the Dude. One of his players did not play which might have been one reason for this as the contest was quite close in the bottom of the match. In fact, the very last over from Shamsi where he received 2 wickets changed the order quite drastically. Hard luck mate and best of luck for the next one.
