South Africa vs New Zealand - T20 World Cup Semifinal The Proteas and the Kiwis are set to face off in the first semifinal of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup at the Sydney Cricket Ground. South Africa, led by Temba Bavuma, are looking to make it to their second consecutive final, while New Zealand, captained by Kane Williamson, aim to bounce back from a disappointing group stage exit last year. South Africa won the toss and elected to bat first, with Quinton de Kock and Reeza Hendricks opening the innings. De Kock got off to a flying start, hitting Tom Southee for two consecutive sixes in the second over. The left-hander went on to score 22 runs before being dismissed by Adam Milne. New Zealand's bowling attack has been their strength throughout the tournament, and they will be looking to restrict South Africa's scoring rate. Trent Boult and Tim Southee have been in fine form, while Mitchell Santner and Ish Sodhi provide the spin options. The Kiwis' batting lineup is led by Kane Williamson, Devon Conway, and Glenn Phillips. They will be looking to build partnerships and post a competitive total on the board. Henry Nicholls and Jimmy Neesham provide the all-rounder options, while Adam Milne and Scott Kuggeleijn are the pace bowling options. ...#South_Africa #Mitchell_Santner #Devon_Conway #Glenn_Phillips #Kagiso_Rabada #T20_World_Cup #Trent_Boult #New_Zealand #Quinton_de_Kock #Temba_Bavuma #Reeza_Hendricks #Kane_Williamson #Lungi_Ngidi #Anrich_Nortje #Tabraiz_Shamsi #Jimmy_Neesham #Adam_Milne #Tim_Southee #Sydney_Cricket_Ground #Tom_Southee #Ish_Sodhi #Henry_Nicholls #Dwaine_Pretorius
