LAHORE: In the second semi-final of the ICC Champions Trophy, New Zealand won the toss and decided to bat first against South Africa.
During the toss, Kiwi captain Mitchell Santner said, the pitch looks good, and they will try to score well. He mentioned that they have played matches here in the Tri-Nation series.
On the other hand, South African captain Temba Bavuma said, at the toss that if we had won the toss, we would have preferred to bat as well, but now they need to have a good start. There has been one change in the team; I have returned and I am feeling much better now.
