South Africa in the Final

South Africa have emphatically booked their place in the final of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, dismantling Afghanistan by 9 wickets in the first semi-final. This historic victory marks the Proteas’ first appearance in a World Cup final, having previously fallen short in five ODI semi-finals and two T20I semi-finals.

Clinical Chase Seals the Deal:

Set a modest target of 57 runs, South Africa displayed clinical batting execution to chase down the total with ease. Opener Reeza Hendricks led the way with an unbeaten knock of 29 runs, including three boundaries and a six off just 25 balls. Aiden Markram provided solid support, finishing not out on 23 runs with four boundaries from 21 deliveries. The chase was completed in just 8.5 overs, losing only one wicket in the process.

Relief and Excitement for South Africa:

This victory marks a significant moment for South Africa, who have consistently challenged at the highest level without ever reaching the ultimate stage. The team will now be brimming with confidence and excitement as they prepare to contest the World Cup final for the first time.
