Temba Bavuma has confirmed his injury status and his hope to play in the semi-final against Australia, saying he feels “alright” but not “100%.” South Africa’s selection decisions are now solely up to the coach, Rob Walter, who has expressed support for Bavuma to play. Bavuma has been attending training sessions, and although he has not had a scan on his hamstring, team management has noted his signs of improvement. ESPNcricinfo has confirmed that he has not yet undergone a fitness test, leaving uncertainty around what still needs to be done for him to be declared fit.
