ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 is around the corner. It is just a few hours left to experience the electrifying excitement of the tournament. The tournament will raise its curtain on October 5. In the first match, England and New Zealand will face each other. On October 4, the ‘Captain’s Day’ was celebrated. During that moment, South African skipper Temba Bavuma’s one action was caught on camera.
The funny incident:
The tournament is going on the stage on October 5. Before the big day, ‘Captain’s Day’ was arranged on October 4 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. In that program, the South African skipper was seen napping. All other captains were sitting in a pair but Bavuma was sitting alone. He used that situation in the best way.
Once the picture was disclosed on the internet, fans started going crazy. They were drooling over it. But people were criticizing him for this behavior. But the majority has taken it in a very light way. They found it very funny. The Internet is just flooding with lots of memes over this incident.
South African Skipper’s reply:
Fans were going crazy with Temba Bavuma’s napping incident. They were making fun of it. But somehow it caught the attention of the South African skipper. After watching this he responded funnily. He wrote, “I blame the camera angle, I wasn’t sleeping.” This response also caught the attention of netizens.
After arriving in India, Temba Bavuma had to go back to his country again due to a family emergency. He returned before the ‘Captain’s Day’ event. When the skipper was attending the show, the rest team was practicing in Delhi for their first match.
South Africa will start their journey in this tournament by playing against Australia on October 7 in Delhi. They are already well prepared. Just before the World Cup, they defeated Australia in an ODI series. That boosted their confidence on a different level.
South African players are well aware of Indian conditions because of the IPL. this is going to be the last World Cup of Quinton de Kock. He will be retiring from the ODI format. He will be trying to give his best for the team. South Africa also has an unwanted record in this tournament. Till now, they have not appeared in any final matches in the World Cup. they have a very balanced team. All the players are in good rhythm. They have a good chance to change that record this time.
