Sikandar Raza is keeping the Zimbabwe innings from collapsing, as all others are failing to convert their starts. Out of 69, Raza has singlehandedly scored 32. Dion Myers, too, departed after scoring 11 of 16 to George Linde. Raza will hope Ryan Burl will hold one end up.

Zimbabwe's best batter Brian Bennett fell for a 13-ball 15, after the opener went for the lofted drive, but Anrich Nortje's pace caught the player off guard. Captain Sikandar Raza has showcased intent in his stay in the middle, and will hope to form a solid stand with Dion Myers.

Kwena Maphaka provided South Africa the first breakthrough, as Tadiwanashe Marumani got his stumps knocked over, after going for a wild swing, against an in-swinging ball. Brian Bennett will look to rebuild the innings with Dion Myers.

For a change, South Africa open their bowling with a spinner, while Zimbabwe send in their trusted pair of Tadiwanashe Marumani and Brian Bennett out in the middle. Bennett will want to finish the tournament on a high and score runs against the most dominant bowling attack this edition.

Aiden Markram’s South Africa enter the contest as the overwhelming favourites. As the only undefeated side remaining in the tournament, the 2024 runners-up have already booked their place in the semi-finals following dominant victories over India and the West Indies. With qualification secured, this match presents an ideal opportunity for the Proteas to test their bench strength and ensure key players like fast bowler Kagiso Rabada find their rhythm before the high-stakes knockouts.

Conversely, Zimbabwe’s remarkable journey officially comes to an end today. After failing to qualify for the 2024 edition, Sikandar Raza's men became the giant-killers of the group stage in Sri Lanka, earning praise for stunning both Australia and the co-hosts. However, the transition to batting-friendly Indian conditions proved difficult. In their recent Super 8 matches, Zimbabwe's bowling attack struggled to adapt, conceding totals in excess of 250 runs against both the West Indies and India. Pakistan Out of Semi-Final Race, New Zealand Qualify for Last Four of T20 World Cup 2026
