In the highly anticipated match between Australia and South Africa at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Stadium, Lucknow, during the ICC World Cup 2023, it was Australia who won the toss and elected to field. The match was marked by some significant lineup changes, as Pat Cummins introduced Marcus Stoinis and Josh Inglis into the squad, replacing Cameron Green and Alex Carey.

South Africa's opening partnership, spearheaded by the dynamic duo of Temba Bavuma and Quinton de Kock, managed to put up a solid performance. They successfully steered their team to a score of 100 runs in 18 overs, setting an optimistic tone for their innings.

However, the turning point came in the 19.4th over of the match when Glenn Maxwell bowled an over that led to Temba Bavuma's dismissal. Bavuma attempted a massive slog, but the delivery on middle and leg caught him off guard. The ball soared into the sky only to be safely pouched by David Warner at deep mid-wicket. This marked the fourth time in the match that luck had eluded Bavuma, ending his scratchy knock at 35 runs.

As of the time of writing, South Africa stood at 113/1 after 24 overs.
