Although South Africa respectably won against England by 10 runs in its final Super 12, Group 1 cricket match, yet they missed out badly on the qualifying round for the semi-finals of the ICC T20 World Cup owing to the last run-rate computations. South Africa had an inflicting total on the playing field, notwithstanding that its unexpected departure could not be construed far from the reliable rate.

At the fast-changing order in securing the semi-final spot, England’s Jason Roy would be shifted due to injury, but the team’s middle-order has some trouble during the stressful situations. It will be worth seeing how English players show their batting ability in case they lose wickets in the first 4 overs. However, the ultimate result remains more substantial than any other archival record.
All the hitting attempts made by Rassie van der Dussen on the crease to strike an unbeaten 94 runs off 60 deliveries were worthless. Similarly, Aiden Markram made 52 runs off 25 balls to steer South Africa to an invariably commanding position at 189 runs for a loss of two wickets. Quinton de Kock also scored 27 runs off 34 balls.
It’s confirmed now, Australia are through to the semis. Brave effort by South Africa, fantastic win against England but while they didn’t qualify to the semis, they should be proud at the way they are progressing as a team. #ENGvSA #T20WorldCup

What South Africa failed to attain was the immaculate feat of restricting England to barely 131 runs to finalise its semi-final position ahead of Australia, but it miserably failed at the moment. The rival side led by Eoin Morgan wrapped up at a total tally of 179 runs for eight wickets.
A win in one or more cricket matches can be a subtle, completing sight for the cricket team players, but impartial alternatives never go out of the player’s attitude, as they are supposed to prefer unique choices in their statement-making circumstances at this season of the T20 World Cup.
Though Australia has come to the last four with its safe strategy, will it remain on top in the T20 World Cup? While England finds a path to win in blasting cricket, New Zealand too sees success in power hitting. With regards to Pakistan, they could still improve their knocking capability, as experts maintain.
