PROTEAS coach Shukri Conrad may call on the golden arms of captain Aiden Markram and Tristan Stubbs in the Powerplay for the blockbuster ICC T20 World Cup Super Eights clash against India at Ahmedabad on Sunday.
T20 World Cup surprise package Zimbabwe beat Sri Lanka by six wickets in Colombo Thursday to finish the group stage unbeaten and carry some winning momentum into the Super Eights. Chasing 179 they finished 182/4 with three balls to spare against the co-hosts at the R Premadasa stadium in Colombo. Zimbabwe's Brian Bennett top-scored for the Chevrons with a powerful 68 off 48 balls.

India have rolled through the group stages unbeaten with four victories from four starts identical to the Proteas but have shown a vulnerability against finger-spinners.
