White Ferns v South Africa: Kerr century sees NZ post 194 in Christchurch

An Amelia Kerr masterclass has seen the White Ferns complete a comprehensive T20 series victory over South Africa, sealing a 4-1 triumph with a 92-run win in Christchurch.

With the series already sealed after wins in Auckland and Wellington over the weekend, the White Ferns’ skipper put a full stop
on her side’s victory.

The 25-year-old belted a career-best 105 off just 55 deliveries as the major factor in New Zealand’s 194-6, and surpassed her unbeaten 101 scored against Zimbabwe last month to outscore South Africa on her own.

After the last two wins were sealed chasing, Christchurch saw the White Ferns defend a total, as their 194-6 was met with just 102-9 in reply.

160 for 4 – New Zealand's total on Sunday which marked their second-highest in a successful chase in women's T20Is. The only time they've gone better was against South Africa as well, when they took down a target of 173 in Benoni three years ago.

This was also the highest successful chase by any team on New Zealand soil, overtaking South Africa who had chased down 153 in Wellington in 2020.

4 of New Zealand's top five chases in women's T20Is have come against South Africa. And Sophie Devine scored a fifty in each of those games.

West Indies captain Shai Hope: "We've got to put runs on the board again. We probably would have bowled [first].

"One change – Roston Chase for Akeal Hosein. He's certainly not being dropped. It's a tactical change – the best XI for this opposition.

"We've got to play our best cricket. Got to keep that momentum going in this important game and I'm sure the guys are up for it."

South Africa captain Aiden Markram: "We are going to bowl. It looks a good wicket and we have played here before. It feels slightly tacky so hopefully the moisture gets less and we can chase later."

South Africa make four changes and ask UAE to bat

You have reached ESPN's Australian edition. Stay on current site or go to US version.

South Africa have won the toss and chosen to bowl first against UAE in their T20 World Cup 2026 match on what captain Aiden Markram called a tacky pitch in Delhi. UAE captain Muhammad Waseem said he wanted to bowl first as well.

Weather also played a part in his decision – there was a drizzle just ten minutes before the toss, which forced parts of the ground to be covered.

Having already secured their place in the Super Eight, South Africa made four changes, pretty much emptying out their bench, mainly giving their premier bowlers a rest. They brought in Jason Smith, Kwena Maphaka and Anrich Nortje for their first games of the tournament, and also brought George Linde back. They left out David Miller, Marco Jansen, Keshav Maharaj and Lungi Ngidi.

South Africa have chased down a victory target of 123 with 40 balls to spare to finish the group stage of cricket's Twenty20 World Cup unbeaten.

South Africa opted to field first and restricted United Arab Emirates to 6-122 on Wednesday with veteran pace bowlers Corbin Bosch returning 3-12 from four overs and Anrich Nortje taking 2-28.

The South Africans raced to 4-123 in 13.2 overs, taking the last seven runs in singles after their fourth wicket fell.

South Africa fire Super Eights warning to India with UAE romp

New Delhi (AFP) – South Africa sent a T20 World Cup warning to co-hosts India after romping to a six-wicket win over the United Arab Emirates in New Delhi on Wednesday.

After restricting the Emiratis to 122-6 on a pitch enlivened by morning rain, South Africa raced to 123-4 in just 13.2 overs to complete a perfect group phase with four wins out of four.

Next up for Aiden Markram's side is a repeat of the 2024 final against India in Ahmedabad on Sunday in their first match of the Super Eights.

India won the final in Barbados to lift the trophy and are firm favourites to repeat on home soil.

South Africa bowl, bring Bosch back

You have reached ESPN's Australian edition. Stay on current site or go to US version.

South Africa sought to become the first team to mount a successful chase in a night game in this World Cup as they elected to bowl after winning the toss against New Zealand. They made one change from their last match, a morning match, bringing in Corbin Bosch for George Linde. New Zealand were unchanged.

Thanks to their wins over Afghanistan already, both South Africa and New Zealand are almost assured of progress into the Super Eights from this group of death. Thanks to pre-seeded fixtures in the next round, this match doesn't have much on the line apart from competitiveness among two solid T20 teams.

Canada bowl against pace-heavy South Africa

You have reached ESPN's Australian edition. Stay on current site or go to US version.

Canada captain Dilpreet Bajwa won the toss and asked South Africa to bat in their World Cup opener in Ahmedabad.

South Africa have opted for a pace-heavy attack. Keshav Maharaj slots in as their only spinner, alongside the speedy quartet of Marco Jansen, Corbin Bosch, Kagiso Rabada and Lungi Ngidi. Tristan Stubbs also begins the tournament at the No. 6 spot – a position Jason Smith had occupied in their last T20I, while Stubbs had slid down to No. 7. Smith is in the World Cup squad but did not find a spot in South Africa's starting eleven.

56 min: Congo race forward and win back-to-back corners as their supporters bounce up and down behind the goal.

61 min: Benin finally have a chance to wheel the ball around â€¦ before Ouorou miscues horribly on the right wing.

59 min: Time for some tweaks. Ashour replaces TrÃ©zÃ©guet and Zizo replaces Ibrahim Adel.

55 min: Nearly for Egypt. The ball breaks for Rabia in the six-yard box, he slams in a strike but Dandjinou makes himself massive; the ball then deflects off Ouorou, on the line, leading to another Egypt corner. Somehow Benin survive.

54 min: Salah slides in a pass for Hany to latch on to, and the right wing-back wins a corner for Egypt.

Egypt vs Benin live updates: AFCON 2025 latest score with match goalless after fine Dandjinou save

Mohamed Salah's Egypt are battling Benin in the AFCON 2025 round of 16 in Agadir today.

Forward Omar Marmoush wasted a one-on-one opportunity before his poke was cleared off the line.

Egypt defender Mohamed Hamdy was carried off on a stretcher after appearing to suffer a knee injury.

In the second half, Marcel Dandjinou made a superb save to deny Ramy Rabia from very close range.

Benin have marked him tightly and aggressively, and even though he is not having his best game, he has still managed to play some lovely through balls in this first hour of the game.

And it is sparked by another injury as Trezeguet limps off. Joining him in heading off is Ibrahim Adel.
