    BBC Radio Test Match Special

    Time for TMS on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra - with Charles Dagnall leading today's commentary team - it's also available via the BBC Sport website and app.

    While the 5LSX commentary will switch to India v Pakistan before that match starts, if you want to continue listening to South Africa v Zimbabwe, you can choose to hear either game here on the BBC Sport website. We'll remind you a little later.

    Zimbabwe - who have lost to Afghanistan twice in the last years and must be massive underdogs for today's game - leave out Regis Chakabva, Stuart Matsikenyeri, Tawanda Mupariwa and Prosper Utseya from their squad.

    While no team has lost more World Cup games than Zimbabwe, their cricketing history is sprinkled with upsets - such as beating Australia at Trent Bridge in 1983, England at Albury in 1992, while in 1999 they shocked India at Leicester and South Africa at Chelmsford.

    South Africa, though, have a very strong batting line-up with Farhaan Behardien, a front-line batsman who bowls occasionally, down at number seven. They leave out Kyle Abbott, Wayne Parnell, Aaron Phangiso and Rilee Rossouw from their 15-man squad.

    Zimbabwe have won the toss in Hamilton and will field first.

    South Africa captain AB de Villiers looks to have been in two minds about what to do, had he won the toss - but will be happy to be batting first in the sunshine.

    After England's abject defeat by Australia at the MCG yesterday, another of cricket's - and indeed world sport's - fiercest rivalries - takes place in Adelaide today when India face Pakistan, starting at 03:30 GMT.

    However, that game will take a back seat for a couple of hours while we concentrate on another game between two neighbours - South Africa, who are among the favourites for the tournament, face Zimbabwe, who, erm, aren't - with play getting under way at 01:00 GMT.

Set your radio to Test Match Special, pour yourself a nocturnal cup of cocoa and settle down for a double-header that promises plenty of passion:

    • Roses are red, violets are blue,

    • We've got South Africa v Zimbabwe,

    • And India v Pakistan too.
