That got close.

I was most weary of nz coming into the knockouts, Daryl and Rachin looked very comfortable against us last game too.

NZ 10/327 - Shami with a ridiculous 7/57, overtakes Zampa for leading wicket taker even though he’s played three less matches

Good match, great effort from NZ, but if you want to give yourself a chance, don’t concede 400 runs.

Brilliant 134 from Daryl Mitchell, just not enough support from the others.

NZ's problem at the end of the day is its bowlers. Southee running up bowling Netherlands pace bowling is never going to win you a game on a flat wicket

For those not familiar with Jimmy, he started doing baseball reaction and breakdown videos, but in the recent times has branched out to other sports including cricket. I imagine he has introduced cricket to a lot of Americans. And he’s learning a lot and becoming a fan. He was following the IPL and the Ashes this year.

Must admit when Coetzee was given out just then my first thought was that it was worth a review. Ball brushed his shoulder, he would still be out there.

Thankfully that will be the last over from Zampa. Was probably given 1-2 more than he deserved.

SA RR 4.04 but Zampa 7-0-55-0

As was the case in 1999, 213 runs will be enough for Australia.

SA 10/212 - Miller 101 (116), 8x4 5x6

Rabada goes for 13 off one legal delivery. Not ideal for South Africa.

AUS 0/60 (6), 27 off the last 6 balls

Next ball, Markram bowls Warner

AUS 2/106 (14)

Maharaj the #1 ranked ODI bowler in the world yet has yet to get a bowl.

Great captaincy Bauvuma. Could you contribute any less today?

Maharaj on, fort ball bowls Head for 62.

Congrats SA on waiting for Australia to get half way to the target before bringing on the world’s #1 ranked bowler.

Bavuma is the worst captain.

Why did he wait till half the total was chased before introducing his frontline spinners I'd never know.

Then didn't bring a short catcher for 5 more overs.

Have you never seen how Dhoni captained on a spinning pitch?
