South Africa v New Zealand: T20 World Cup cricket semi-final – live The Proteas and the Black Caps are set to face off in the second semifinal of the T20 World Cup, with a spot in Sunday's final at stake. South Africa have been the team to beat all tournament, while New Zealand have shown flashes of brilliance despite some inconsistency. South Africa won the toss and elected to bat first, sending opener Janneman Malan out to face the music alongside Quinton de Kock. The pair got off to a steady start, with Malan hitting a four off Trent Boult's second ball before De Kock was dismissed by Tim Southee for 14. Malan continued to anchor the innings, bringing up his fifty in style with a six off Adam Milne. He eventually fell to Mitchell Santner for 62, but David Miller and Aiden Markram put on 40 runs together to help South Africa post a competitive total of 164-5 from their 20 overs. New Zealand got off to a flyer in response, with Devon Conway and Finn Allen putting on 53 runs inside the powerplay. Conway eventually fell to Lungi Ngidi for 34, but Kane Williamson and Glenn Phillips took over, adding 60 runs together before the former was run out by Andile Pheko for 42. Phillips is still going strong at the crease, having hit two sixes in his 43 not out so far.
