Former India cricketer Sanjay Bangar believes that a World Test Championship (WTC) victory for South Africa could be their “eureka moment”, similar to India’s iconic 1983 World Cup win. As South Africa prepares to face Australia in the WTC 2025 final, Bangar suggests that a win could galvanize the nation’s cricketing future, inspiring a new generation of players.
 
Key Highlights:
  • Historic Opportunity: South Africa has only one ICC trophy—the 1998 Champions Trophy—and has come agonizingly close to winning major titles multiple times.
  • Underdog Narrative: Bangar emphasized that 2025 has been a year of underdogs, making South Africa’s potential victory even more symbolic and impactful.
  • National Cricket Revival: A WTC win could boost South African cricket’s relevance, much like India’s 1983 triumph, which transformed Indian cricket forever.
  • Facing Australia: South Africa will lock horns with defending champions Australia, making this the ultimate test for their squad.
  • Bangar’s Perspective: He believes that if South Africa wins, it will inspire young cricketers, proving that they can compete and dominate on the world stage.
With South Africa on the brink of history, a WTC victory could reshape their cricketing legacy, much like Kapil Dev’s India did in 1983.
