Markram played a brilliant knock of 136 runs to guide South Africa to their maiden WTC title under Temba Bavuma’s captaincy. Now, they have a great chance to win a historic double in 2027. Amid this, Nic Maddinson sent home after poor run as Australia set to make changes for Cape Town Test.
South Africa has eight tests left in the current WTC 2025-27 cycle- one against Australia, two against Bangladesh, and three against England at home, followed by two tests in Sri Lanka. To have a strong chance of reaching the WTC Final 2027, they need to win at least five matches.
Aiden Markram was quoted as saying by ESPNCricinfo, "I believe we can make the final again. A lot was said last year about us making the final and the road to it, so now there's an extra fire and desire to get into the final, because we would have had to do it the extremely hard way. To go to Pakistan and India [in 2025], and with this home summer being huge against some quality opposition, there's a strong will to want to get in that final again, and it's a long way away.”

The Proteas batter further added, “The home [ODI] World Cup [in October-November 2027] is huge as well for us. We want to try to do something special there.” Amid this, Cheteshwar Pujara picks 6 Indians in ODI World XI, leaves out Australia and Pakistan stars.

Markram signed off by saying, “I don't have a drive to try and average 45 at the end of my career. If it happens, it's going to happen on the back of this more recent approach. If it doesn't happen, I'm in complete peace with it. I just really hope along the way we can win more trophies, and if you can contribute towards that, then that's incredible.”
