South Africa need 189 runs from 20 overs to win the second semi-final in the Champions Trophy against New Zealand. But the Proteas have lost four wickets already, including the set batters Rassie van der Dussen (69) and Temba Bavuma (56).
Spurred by centuries from Rachin Ravindra and Kane Williamson, New Zealand smashed the record for the team total in Champions Trophy history when they posted 362/6 in Lahore on Wednesday. Besides the two centurions, the Black Caps were also buoyed by Glenn Phillips (unbeaten 49) and Daryl Mitchell (49). The winner of the contest faces off against India, who defeated Australia by four wickets in Dubai on Tuesday.
The two teams met each other just this past month in an ODI, that too at the same venue as part of the tri-series involving Pakistan. New Zealand had won that game by six wickets with eight balls remaining. But it must be pointed out that the Proteas side which lost to the Black Caps last month is very different from the current team: of that squad of 13, only Temba Bavuma, Heinrich Klaasen, Wiaan Mulder and Keshav Maharaj are in the Champions Trophy 15-player squad.
