Third QF

South Africa vs New Zealand both of these teams have never won a world cup.

New Zealand won the toss and bat first. New Zealand lost two early wicket's but they look steady at the moment. South Africa can get quick wickets at the beginning near to the end they get the rest of the wicket's I think it would happen today.

South Africa was outstanding with the bowling but could get Jesse Ryder out so he was New Zealand highest score. Tahir took two wickets. Morkel very classic bowling by him took two wicket's in one over plus another one before that so he took three wicket's.
New Zealand 221/8 in 50 overs.For the first time in cricket world cup South Africa havent been able to bowl out their opponent. This is a easy total too defend shall SA chase it down or would they collapse as usually

This was a very low total to defend and it's easy to chase down. But for South Africa they made it so difficult. This how it goes down for SA. Hashim Amla gone for 6 runs he did not score a lot in the world cup. Kallis comes in he scores hit around plays the ball and Smith just stands and watch. Then his wicket falls of Smith for 28 runs a very use less captain but it was his last as being captain in ODI. Kallis goes he hit hard thought he got a boundary but Jacob Oram just stretch up his arms and what a catch that was. Kallis got 47 runs next in was AB but things got intense also. When the wicket fell of Duminy then Faf come in. AB was run out for 35 runs but there where exchange of words and that's not allowed. Faf he tried but wicket's where falling Botha he could not hold it for more than 2 runs then he got bowled. Petersen that won the game against India could be trust he was gone for no runs. Next in was Steyn he was a goner by 8 runs gave away his wicket what to hit a six that's not even needed. Morkel 3 runs off seventeen balls but FAF was doing all the work. But then he lost his wicket then the last man for SA was Tahir what can't bat. It was Morkel that ended and he lost it for SA.

It could of been a terrific win for SA if they did collapse like that well as every one is saying they would always be chokers. And would they ever win a knock out in a world cup. Congrats NZ for reaching into the semi final.
