New Zealand and South Africa battled each other in 1 of the 2 Semi-Final games of the Cricket World Cup, at Eden Park, Auckland, New Zealand.
The match started at 03:00 SA Time (14:00 NZ Time).
As expected, South Africa, New Zealand, Australia and India made the Semi-Finals.
The Other Semi-Final, between Australia vs India take place on Thursday 26 March at 05:30 SA Time (14:30 Sydney Time) at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
South Africa won the toss and elected to bat first.
The South African Innnings was interrupted by rain and the game was reduced to a 43 Over per side game.
South Africa reached a total of 281 / 5 in their allotted 43 Overs, with Faf du Plessis (82), AB de Villiers (65 not out) and David Miller (49 off just 18 balls) doing the damage.
New Zealand started like a house on fire, with Brendan McCullum racing to 59 off only 26 balls… till he eventually perished. Kane Williamson perished on 6 runs, off 11 balls. Martin Guptill eventually perished on 34, from 38 balls and then Taylor departed for 30 off 39 balls. At this stage, New Zealand was still just above the required run-rate.
2 More wickets followed but it was not enough for South Africa.
New Zealand won with 1 ball spare, a 6 off the last ball by Grant Elliott, an Ex-South African himself!
South Africa: 281 / 5 (43 / 43 Overs)
New Zealand: 299 / 6 (42.5 / 43 Overs, 298 required due to D/L)
New Zealand won by 4 wickets (with 1 ball remaining) (D/L method)

Weet jy wat, dit gaan nie eers oor reg of verkeerd nie, of oor Superbru of nie…. dit gaan oor jou attitude wat suig!
Ango, wat ‘n baie moeilike man is om af te pis, ekself, MoosaBull, Herr Gunther… almal dink jou attitude suig, maar nee, jy alleen dink nie so nie.
Dis miskien wakkerword tyd…
Use it, don’t use it…. whatever!

So, word ek ook nou verban?

Stadig met Nortie, as al wat mens en dier en gay deesdae geregtig is op ‘n opinie en plekkie in die son, dan mos Nortier dier ook?
Onthou, die Bulle en Sharks het op een naweek gewen, so toon begrip!

En Frans het die wedstryplan uitgedink

Ek gaan Saterdag Loftus toe, saakie maakie… dit is en bly my span!
As die Tjarks die Chiefs kan wen… en die Farce kon die Saders wen… dalk net-net trek Ludeke ‘n hasie uit die hoed uit…. maar nouja ek sallie geld daarop sit nie.

Die hardste game wat ek ooit gesien het was die 2007 semi teen die Crusaders op Loftus
Maar dit was ‘n sterk spen met ‘n goeie afrigter, nie Spies, JJ en Ludeke nie
