South Africa book their place in the T20 World Cup semi-finals with a nervy three-wicket win over co-hosts West Indies in a winner-takes-all Super 8s match.
South Africa are through to the T20 World Cup semi-finals after a tense three-wicket win on the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method over co-hosts West Indies in a winner-takes-all Super 8s match.
Chasing a DLS revised target of 123, South Africa wobbled at times but ultimately withstood the pressure and Marco Jansen thumped a six to seal the win with five balls to spare. The Windies’ momentum was halted immediately, though, by a sudden downpour that kept the players off for around 75 minutes. But with a raucous crowd at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium urging them on, the West Indies kept fighting with Roston Chase, who made 52 with the bat, taking three wickets.
