Temba Bavuma
South Africa captain Temba Bavuma was hoping on Friday that his "stubborn" nature will help dull the pain of a hamstring injury as he plots a path to the World Cup final.

Bavuma made 23 as his team completed their group campaign with a five-wicket win over Afghanistan in Ahmedabad. "My leg is sore. I don't know the extent of it yet but I'll have to be fine. I am stubborn, it will have to be fine," said the 33-year-old Bavuma.
With a semi-final looming against five-time champions Australia next week, Bavuma insists he needs to be at the heart of the action as South Africa stand just two wins away from a maiden World Cup triumph.
