End of the match: South Africa won by 9 wickets | |||
08:57 GMT: The quickest win for any side in a World Cup knockout. Sangakkara and Jayawardene bid farewell, two legends will not play in colored shirts anymore for Sri Lanka | |||
09:03 GMT: A straightforward game, not what one would expect in a kncok-out match and after seeing so many 300+ totals. South Africa's bowling finally produced and ripped through Sri Lanka batting line-up, Sri Lanka performed poorly and never were in the match. This was not the way Sanga and Jayawardene would have liked to say goodbye but that is how it is, Sanga will be playing in Tests but Mahela has fully retired. Sanga and Mahela are hugging everyone, South African batsmen let them go in the pavillion first, all hugs and smiles, a really emotional moment for the two legends. de Kock was fantastic, finally finding form and in a knockout game, Duminy getting a hattrick and Imran Tahir bagging 4 wickets | |||
09:04 GMT: South Africa are finally in the semi-finals, they have won a knockout game for the first time in history! | |||
Man of the match: Imran Tahir | |||
09:08 GMT: So one quarter-final is done and dusted, 3 more are left. Join us tomorrow for the thrilling game between Bangladesh and India. Till then goodbye | |||
