WC 25th Match: South Africa v New Zealand - Birmingham 19/6/19 (NZ win by 4 wks)

[KeepingTheFaith]

1 more win from our last 4 will be enough to clinch a semifinal you would think.

If Australia, India and England do what they're expected the next two games then there's a 4 point gap from the top 4 to the rest.

SA can count themselves unlucky not to win this one, though last 12 overs choking of massive proportions by the looks

The big one, in the 38th over Williamson nicked one behind to DeKock, only Tahir appealed, given not out, probably the game right there

That must be the end of the saffers.

Should be

but mathematically still can make it, though would mean something like Australia (only side most likely in the top 4)) to lose all their games from now on, and SA win their 3 games, plus other results to go their way from teams above them on the ladder not in the top 4

 

[TheFrog]

Absolutely ecstatic to see SA eliminated. That's all.

 

[Bazal]

Absolutely ecstatic to see SA eliminated. That's all.

I'm actually very sad to see them eliminated.

Robs us of the opportunity to enjoy another big game choke

And this surprises you? Just earlier than usual

 

[Iafeta]

Sef Efreka sure love a choke.

Full credit to Amla and Makram nearly got through to stumps.
