Although South Africa is a very strong team, they could not score many runs today. Because the opening batsmen put the South African team under a lot of pressure but Miller and Klaasen were the two batsmen due to which South Africa managed to score 212 runs. Almost at the beginning of the game when the South African team lost 4 wickets for 24 runs, the South African team was almost helpless but miller being an experienced player managed to score a century, he scored enough runs for the South African team.
And if the South African team can keep the Australia team under pressure from the bowling side, the game will surely be full of competition. Because South Africa team has very good bowling which is enough to weaken Australia team. The chances of Australia team winning this match today is very high because I think Australia team can definitely meet the target of 212 runs.

South Africans have concluded there innings by givgn a target of 212 to Aussies. Only David Miller along with Heinrich Klaasen showed some resistance in front of Australian bowlers both have a partnership of 95 runs. After losing 4 top order batters quickly SA have done good to play 49.4 overs. I dont think there is much chance for SA to win today's game with such tiny target. Starc who was expensive throughout the tournament has done good in today's game with figure 10-1-34-3.
Except for Heinrich Klaasen's 47 runs and Dawid Miller's 101 runs, no other batsman in the South African squad could do better. Our expectations were high from South Africa today. Because in the first round match they have a huge margin of 134 runs against Australia. Batting against a target of 312 runs given by the South Africans, Australia collected only 177 runs. However, the match is competitive and chances are still there. Since the South African bowlers managed to stop Australia for 177 runs in the previous match, they will try their best to bowl well in today's match. Let's see if the match is dominated by the Australian batsmen alone or turns out to be competitive.

South Africa bats against Australia in the first innings, but the opening batsmen have batted badly since the beginning of batting. Quinton de Kock and Rassie van der Dussen and Temba Bavuma did not collect good runs, if the three of them could have averaged 100 then South Africa would have had a good score. But these three batsmen batted the worst and South Africa's next batsmen batted in frustration as they got out. No cricket lover would have thought that South Africa would lose wickets this quickly against Australia in the second semi-final match today. Aiden Markram also could not survive in today's match, where all these batsmen have batted brilliantly in previous matches, but not today. However, David Miller put in a fantastic batting performance as he went on to score a century, the best batting performance for South Africa today.
South Africa posted 212 all out in first innings of match. A brilliant bowling and fielding performance from Austraila. South Africa only David Miller 101 runs hundred and Klaasen 47, and there was nothing from the South Africa batting order perform. David Miller score crucial century, a brilliant innings for South Africa helped to cross 200 runs. Australia skipper Pat Cummins gets 3/51 wickets and the big wicket of David Miller at 101 runs. Mitchell Starc top bowling performance 3/34 is his bowling spell. Now Australia are favourites of the final of world cup

South Africa are called chokers for a reason. After fighting hard in group stages they are once again at the verge of elimination. Starc and Hazlewood just destroyed the top order batting lineup of South Africa, 44/4 in 14 overs. I don't understand whats the benefit of playing so well at group stages if you have to do this in Semis? South Africa only hope is rain which has stopped the play right now. There must a reserve day for this semi final also but I don't know play on reserve day will resume from scratch or from where its interrupted.
Just South Africa hit one hundred runs with struggle. Now 100 runs are completed as their next goal is two hundred runs and when they complete their next goal so they just focus on hitting at least 280 and I would like to predict the score, I think that they can do 250 runs with struggle.
David Miller is the last player and hope of South Africa because he is the only one who can play very well and leads South Africa to the final. Heinrich Klaasen is also a very good player but the best David Miller. He is too near to be half-century.
Very bad batting performance by South Africa. In round matches SA was a special team and famous for scoring high runs. They were struggling only in second batting in the chasing. Today Bavuma won the toss and choose batting but today not work for South Africa. Australia main wicket taking bowlers Adam Zampa doesn't get any wickets while Starc and Hazlewood picked early wickets. Total target is now set to213. I think Australia will easily chase it and there will be big match on the Sunday.

But today's match I think is the bowling crease due to which the batsmen did not play well. However, if Australia lose wickets early in the innings like South Africa did then the game will surely be a tight one.

South Africa Vs Australia
In the second semi-final match, South Africa won the toss and lost 4 wickets in the beginning. South Africa's batting performance suggests that they will be bowled out for 200 runs today. South Africa now need to form a strong pair to survive 50 overs. Otherwise, South Africa will not last the full 50 overs today. But we will wait to see the entire innings of the match from start to finish to see how any team can perform to confirm the semi-final today and confirm the final.
South Africa won the toss and decided to bat first current score is 100 runs in loss of 4 wickets in 28 Overs.

South Africa vs Australia
South African captain Bavuma won the toss and decided to bat in the second semi-final match. We knew that South Africa would decide to bat if they won the toss. Because this team can bat well in the first innings, but their performance in the second innings is not good. Also the pitch at Eden Garden in Kolkata is batting friendly. I am expecting a high score in today's match.
South Africa lost the wicket of captain Bavuma in the first over. We have never seen a better performance from Bavuma in a World Cup match. However, the South African management made Bavuma the captain. Bavuma does not have the ability to be the opener of a team like South Africa.
Have you ever seen any team making runs at the rate of 1.12 runs per over in this world cup? Well if not, you can watch the South African team now and witness it with your own eyes.

A very poor start by South Africa to this semi final and they 8-2 in 7 overs. This is one of the worst starts any team can think of in a match as big as semi finals. First, their unfit captain Temba Bavuma got out at Zero. Since the South African team went on the back foot and tried to defend every ball (no aggressive batting), that caused extra pressure on their inform batsman Quinton de Kock and he also lost his wicket.
Australia is looking in full control of the match and they are not giving any runs to the South African team.
The four batsmen of South Africa's top order collected 3, 0, 6 and 10 runs respectively. I can't imagine South Africa's top order performing this badly today. South Africa's collection was only 10 runs in the first 8 overs. We are seeing very bad batting from the team today.
At the end of 30 overs, South Africa managed to collect only 111 runs. They could not collect even 4 runs per over. Heinrich Klaseen and Dawid Miller are batting well enough. Maybe the South Africa team will give a target around 200 today. An easy win for Australia awaits today. I expected to see a competitive match, but the match turned out to be completely one-sided.

The match was stopped due to rain, and the match before rain was good for Australia as they took wickets. The match is played in Eden Gardens and today weather of Eden Gardens is not good according to today's weather prediction. The weather prediction tells us that today's weather is not good in Eden Gardens and rain will never stop for two hours so maybe over will be less.
This is a trouble semi-final. South African players want that match will never to start again and the rain will never stop because they are losing the game. The south African team can rest, and I hope that the match will start again.

Well.. the partnership between David Miller and Heinrich Klaasen has added 57 runs till now and South Africa are at 79/4 after 25 overs. Pat Cummins has been expensive till now, but Glenn Maxwell has kept things very tight from the other end. The problem for Australia is that their two main strike bowlers have already bowled most of their overs (Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood have a combined 5 overs remaining). Adam Zampa have been ineffective today, so they need to stick with the combination of Maxwell-Cummins for some time.

In today's 2nd Semi-Final match of South Africa vs Australia team, South Africa team came to bat. South Africa team scored 44 runs in 14 overs. Now South Africa team is under pressure after losing 4 wickets. Australia team started good performance in bowling line. But the match is closed due to rain. It is expected that the match will start soon after the rain ends. It is still not clear which team will play well in today's match. Maybe some overs may be shortened due to rain. South Africa team batsman Quinton de Kock 3 off 14 balls. Run out. Temba Bavuma got out for 0 runs in 4 balls. Rassie van der Dussen got out for 6 runs in 31 balls. South Africa team batsmen did not bat well.

South Africa won the toss and decided to bat first at Kolkata's Eden Gardens. South Africa's batsmen are not able to make much of an advantage in batting as it is batting friendly in Kolkata's Eden Gardens. South Africa is under a lot of pressure after losing 4 wickets in the beginning. Meanwhile, Australia Mitchell Starc took the wicket of South Africa captain Temba Bavuma in the first over. Mitchell Starc did not play well for Australia in the 2023 World Cup. However, in the fight to reach the final, this Australian player caught him right in today's match, the wicket of the South African captain was dismissed by Mitchell Starc. South Africa's current score is 41 for 4 after 14 overs. Their game looks like they might be all out within 250 runs. If South Africa can be bowled out for 250, Australia's final is guaranteed. Finally, let's see how many runs the Australian bowlers can restrict South Africa to.

It is probably the end of the tournament for Temba Bavuma. From 8 matches, he has a total of 145 runs to his name, at an average of 18.12 and he scored these runs at a pathetic run rate of 73.60. BTW, Aiden Markram is gone now and Heinrich Klaasen has come to join Rassie van der Dussen at the crease. South Africa looking in pathetic state at 22/3 after 11 overs. And so far it has been just Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc. Apart from these two, not even Pat Cummins has come to bowl for the Australians.
Edit: South Africa at 24/4, with Rassie van der Dussen getting out to Hazlewood.
Also, it looks like light rains are happening at the stadium.

The second semi-final match of the ICC Cricket World Cup has just started. South Africa won the toss and batted first against Australia in the fight to reach the final. The batting start of the South African cricket team is disappointing. At the beginning of the game, the South African team lost 2 wickets. South Africa batsmen are under some pressure against Australia bowlers. It is impossible to say how much South African cricket team batsmen will be able to overcome the pressure of Australian cricket team bowlers in today's match. The game has just started yet there is a whole game to go. However, after a few more overs of the first innings game, it will be understood how strong the batsmen of the South African team will be in the fight to reach the final.
