South Africa is set to commence their T20 World Cup 2026 Group D journey against Canada. The match is scheduled for Monday, February 9, at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium, with the toss at 6:30 PM IST and play starting at 7 PM IST.

The Proteas, who were runners-up in the previous edition, are looking to put their 2024 final disappointment behind them. A significant boost for the team is the fitness of veteran batsman David Miller, who had recovered from a niggle and is in good form, according to captain Aiden Markram.

Canada, under new captain Dilpreet Bajwa, enters the tournament on a strong note, having secured victories in their last five T20I matches. Experienced players like Saad Bin Zafar and Jaskaran Singh bolster their squad, indicating they will not be easy opponents for the South African side.
