NZ vs SA, ICC World Cup 2023: New Zealand and South Africa face conundrum at toss in Pune - to chase or not to chase

The Hindu  

How do you play a game? The principle in play is built on two counter-trends – South Africa is irrepressible when it comes to setting targets in this World Cup, while there is no better side than New Zealand when it comes to chasing in World Cup history. New Zealand’s affinity to hunt down targets continued in this World Cup, with the team registering comfortable run-chases against defending champion England and Bangladesh. Against Australia, in its last match, New Zealand nearly pulled off the biggest chase in the history of the World Cup when it came five runs short of Australia’s mammoth 388. South African batter Rassie van der Dussen offered his perspective on his side’s varying success batting first and second.
