One of the highlights was the South Africa vs Canada match on February 9, 2026. It happened at the big Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. South Africa, who were runners-up last time, kicked off strong with a solid 57-run win over Canada. This South Africa vs Canada game showed how strong the Proteas are compared to teams still growing, but Canada put up a good fight.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ICC Men&#8217;s T20 World Cup 2026 is hosted by India and Sri Lanka, with 20 teams in four groups. South Africa is in Group D with Canada, Scotland, Italy, and a few others. They were the favorites here. Canada got in through the Americas qualifier and wanted to shine, but South Africa&#8217;s team, led by captain Aiden Markram, was tough. Canada won the toss and chose to bowl first, hoping to keep South Africa from scoring big on a fair pitch. The weather was a bit smoky with temperatures around 22\u00b0C, which made things interesting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">        <div class=\"iprovpn_btn_cta_row\">\n    \t<a class=\"btn_cta\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/buy-vpn\" title=\"Get iProVPN Now\">Get iProVPN NOW <i class=\"fas fa-long-arrow-alt-right\"><\/i><\/a>\n    \t<\/div>\n    <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_75 ez-toc-wrap-center counter-flat ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/div>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #000000;color:#000000\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #000000;color:#000000\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#South_Africas_Strong_Batting\" >South Africa&#8217;s Strong Batting<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#Canadas_Brave_Chase\" >Canada&#8217;s Brave Chase<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#FAQs\" >FAQs<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#Who_won_the_South_Africa_vs_Canada_match_in_the_T20_World_Cup_2026\" >Who won the South Africa vs Canada match in the T20 World Cup 2026?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#Who_was_the_Player_of_the_Match_in_South_Africa_vs_Canada\" >Who was the Player of the Match in South Africa vs Canada?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#What_was_the_highest_score_in_the_South_Africa_vs_Canada_game\" >What was the highest score in the South Africa vs Canada game?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#Where_was_the_South_Africa_vs_Canada_T20_World_Cup_match_played\" >Where was the South Africa vs Canada T20 World Cup match played?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#How_did_the_toss_affect_the_South_Africa_vs_Canada_match\" >How did the toss affect the South Africa vs Canada match?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#Final_Words\" >Final Words!<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-10\" href=\"https:\/\/iprovpn.com\/resources\/south-africa-vs-canada-t20-world-cup\/#Start_Browsing_Privately\" >Start Browsing Privately!<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"South_Africas_Strong_Batting\"><\/span>South Africa&#8217;s Strong Batting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">South Africa batted first and made 213\/4 in 20 overs. That&#8217;s a big score! The openers, Aiden Markram and Quinton de Kock, started well, scoring 65 runs in the first six overs without losing a wicket. Markram was on fire, hitting his fifty in just 28 balls with eight fours and a six. He scored 59 off 32 balls, mixing nice shots with smart plays.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">De Kock added 25 off 22 balls, and they put on 70 runs together before he got out in the seventh over. Then Ryan Rickelton came in and added 56 runs with Markram. Rickelton made 33 off 21 with three fours and a six. But Canada&#8217;s Ansh Patel got busy, taking three quick wickets: Markram in the 12th over, Rickelton in the 13th, and Dewald Brevis (who made just 6) right after. That left South Africa at 138\/4. But David Miller and Tristan Stubbs turned it around with an unbeaten 75-run stand at the end.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Miller smashed 39 not out off 23 with one four and three sixes, and Stubbs hit 34 not out off 19 with two fours and two sixes. They went wild in the last overs. Extras added 17 runs too. They reached 50 in 4.3 overs, 100 in 9.5, 150 in 14.4, and 200 in 19.2. There was a slow over-rate penalty at the end, but it didn&#8217;t stop them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Here&#8217;s the batting table for South Africa:<\/b><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Batter<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Runs<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Balls<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Minutes<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>4s<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>6s<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Strike Rate<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aiden Markram (c)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">59<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">32<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">51<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">184.37<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quinton de Kock \u2020<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">25<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">22<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">32<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">113.63<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ryan Rickelton<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">33<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">21<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">29<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">157.14<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dewald Brevis<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">15<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">100.00<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">David Miller<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">39*<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">23<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">37<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">169.56<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tristan Stubbs<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">34*<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">19<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">34<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">178.94<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Extras<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">17<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(b 0, lb 3, w 12, nb 2)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Total<\/b><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">213\/4 (RR: 10.65)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><b>Fall of wickets<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: 1-70 (de Kock, 6.5 ov), 2-126 (Markram, 11.3 ov), 3-137 (Rickelton, 13.1 ov), 4-138 (Brevis, 13.5 ov).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Canada&#8217;s bowlers tried hard.

He swung the ball and pressured in the early overs, where Canada lost four for 50. Aiden Markram&#8217;s 59 set things up, and Miller and Stubbs&#8217; 75 in the last bit turned it into a winner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Canada, Navneet Dhaliwal&#8217;s 64 was awesome against tough bowlers. Ansh Patel&#8217;s 3\/31 showed he&#8217;s got skills as a spinner. But starting badly and not turning the strike over in the middle cost them. It shows Canada needs better batting against fast bowlers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On social media like X, people were talking. Star Sports said, &#8220;Canada tried hard, but South Africa was too good.&#8221; Another post called it a &#8220;big statement&#8221; by South Africa.
