Inn Break
Right then, the two semifinalists from Group 2 are confirmed as South Africa and England make it through to the final four. There are still a couple of semifinal spots left in Group 1 and next up is probably the most anticipated clash of the tournament so far. It will be Australia taking on India at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St Lucia which will also be the penultimate match of the Super Eight stage. That game will be played on Monday, 24 June at 8 pm IST (2.30 pm GMT) but as usual, you can join us a lot sooner for the build-up. Till then, take care and goodbye!
The victorious skipper of South Africa, Aiden Markram is up for a quick chat. He says that such has been the course of the tournament for them where they have to dig deep to extract a victory and they are happy to have won those close games throughout. He says he is feeling relieved to get through to the semis but they wouldn't get relaxed just by this as they are aiming much higher. Adds that they bowled well to start with and assessed the condition well and restricted the Windies to a below-par total. Mentions that they will take the learnings from this game and do well in the coming games. Also says that they identified that the spin would be a trouble for them and they stuck to it and the surface helped them too. Says Kagiso Rabada bowling just two overs speaks volumes on how the surface was acting and they feel happy to have executed their plans to perfection. Closes by saying that they were looking to take the game on and act smartly looking at the conditions that were in front of them and they managed to do it successfully.
Rovman Powell, the captain of West Indies says that the credit must be given to the boys who fought till the end and it was with the bat that they lost the game. adds that the wicket wasn't easy to bat on and they just lost wickets in clusters in the middle phase which was decisive. Mentions that they wanted to give their all in the field and he is proud of the boys. Adds that looking on the outside, they aren't in the semis but they have gone from number 9 in the world to number 3 in the last year or so and it is now important to continue the good work and make their people proud. Ends by saying that the crowd and the support have been fantastic wherever they have played and it is good to see that the cricketing spirit hasn't died down in the Caribbean.
Tabraiz Shamsi is the Player of the Match for his stellar showing with the ball early on. He says that he was sweating at the end but it's been the theme of the tournament for them and they have been finding a way to win as a team no matter what the situation is. Adds that they had confidence in Marco and he delivered. Mentions that the fans like bigger wins but such victories of close margins are what gets a team going even more. Also says that the last time he played on this ground he went for a few but he had a good chat with the coaching staff and they helped him. Credits the other bowlers and says they set the tone up front and together as a unit they performed to their best level. Closes by saying it is always a one-sided love affair between rain, South Africa and chasing but luckily it did not hinder their progress today.
The Presentation ceremony...
Earlier in the game, Aiden Markram won the toss and put West Indies into bat first on a track that looked to be offering something for everyone. Markram picked up something early on from the pitch and was very smart to use a lot of spin in the first 10 overs. Markram even bowled a four-over spell himself upfront and they managed to pick up early wickets as well. Then came the 81-run stand between Kyle Mayers and Roston Chase that got the hosts into a position of promise but with overs running out and the run rate not quite where they would have wanted it to be, the batters had to push. South Africa took advantage of this and kept pressing as the wickets started to tumble and restricted them to just 135 runs with Chase being the star with a well-compiled half-century. In reply, it was a stop-start chase with rain impeding play but South Africa managed to hit enough boundaries in the middle phase than allowed them to get over the line when things got tight.
Utter heartbreak for West Indies who have played some scintillating cricket throughout this tournament but have been undone tonight in a must-win game by an unbeaten Proteas side that was riding high on confidence. They needed wickets upfront and Andre Russell delivered in the second over of the chase, sending back both openers. They needed to find the same momentum after the rain break and Alzarri Joseph bowled an aggressive spell that brought wickets for the hosts. However, a couple of expensive overs from the spinner, especially that 20-run over from Gudakesh Motie completely shifted the momentum into the opposition's favor. They did rally back as Roston Chase bowled a lovely spell during a difficult phase and took them to the brink but it just wasn't enough.
Originally needing 135 runs for the win, South Africa started poorly as Reeza Hendricks got strangled down the leg side for a golden duck. In the next over, Quinton de Kock was caught out in the deep and then came the rain which halted play for a long while. The target was revised to 123 in 17 overs and the Proteas came out with positive intent. Aiden Markram and Tristan Stubbs started to find the fence but Markram was the aggressor and soon fell. Heinrich Klaasen then came in and added 35 quickfire runs along with Stubbs which seemed to have got them in a comfortable position but Klaasen too fell. David Miller looked patchy and was undone by Roston Chase and even Stubbs fell when the finishing line was in sight. However, Jansen and Rabada remained cool and finished off the game in style.
SOUTH AFRICA HAVE DONE IT! Marco Jansen, you beauty! And would you believe it? The two men who collided in the first innings at the boundary have now hit a couple of telling blows each to take South Africa into the semifinals of the T20 World Cup after a decade. The Proteas not only top Group 2 but remain unbeaten and have now picked up 7 wins on the trot. Massive heartbreak though for the home side West Indies who really pulled things back and gave themselves some hop but thee target was always a couple of big shots away and they simply didn't have enough runs on the board.

Akeal Hosein To Aiden Markram
FOUR! Half an appeal for LBW but that has gone off the bat! Pushed through a bit fuller now and at the stumps, Aiden Markram brings out the reverse sweep and gets enough bat on it to beat the diving man at short third for a boundary.

Akeal Hosein To Aiden Markram
A brute of a delivery to begin things! Quicker one, drifted in on a length from outside off. This one grips and rips past the outside edge with some extra bounce as well and Aiden Markram is baffled.
We are finally back for the restart! The umpires are back out in the middle and so are the players of West Indies. The revised Powerplay will be of 5 overs and two bowlers can bowl a maximum of 4 overs. Aiden Markram is back out to resume his stay and will have Tristan Stubbs for company. Akeal Hosein will start a new over. Let's play...
UPDATE - 8.58 am IST (3.28 am GMT) - Right then, we have official news on the restart. The match will restart at 9.15 am IST (3.45 am GMT) but it will be a 17-over chase for South Africa. The target will be 123 according to DLS and this could really turn out to be a humdinger of a game. Grab a cup of coffee and join us soon for all the action.
UPDATE - 8.51 am IST (3.21 am GMT) - The rain stopped a while back but there is no word yet on the restart and that is due to a puddle that formed inside the 30-yard circle. Also, we should be starting to lose overs now as well which is never a good sign. Let's hope that we do get a start time soon, stay tuned.
UPDATE - 8.29 am IST (2.59 am GMT) - There is some good news from the ground as the rain has stopped and the covers are starting to come off. The ground staff will now get going and hopefully, the ground can get ready soon for a restart. The drainage is pretty good at this venue and the umpires can be seen chatting with the ground staff as well. Stay tuned as we should have official word regarding the restart soon. Also, the latest the play can start to constitute a five-overs game is 10.08 am IST (4.38 am GMT) which is still more than an hour and a half away.
UPDATE - 8.18 am IST (2.48 am GMT) - It is still pouring down in Antigua and the pitch and the squares are all firmly under covers. However, the outfield will take a lot of water given the rain but hopefully, it subsides and we can get the ground ready for play again. There is a buffer of about 90 minutes before we start losing overs, so, the question of the game getting washed out is still a fair bit away. Stick around as we might get some news from the ground soon.
UPDATE - 8.01 am IST (2.31 am GMT) - Uh, oh! Just as Tristan Stubbs was walking out to bat, a sudden rain shower has arrived along with a sturdy breeze. The rain has gotten heavier and we might be in for a bit of a delay. It wouldn't be a do-or-die game for South Africa in a World Cup clash without some rain, would it? Stay tuned as we bring you the latest updates.

Andre Russell To Quinton de Kock OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Andre Russell with the double whammy in his first over and the Proteas have now lost both their openers. Russell digs this one in shorter and over middle stump, Quinton de Kock hangs back and sets up for that favored pick-up pull over deep square leg but doesn't get enough on it. A fielder is stationed in the deep for that shot in particular and the ball goes straight to Sherfane Rutherford who hangs on to the catch. Smart bowling from Russell and he is pumped up.

Andre Russell To Aiden Markram
Good hustle from the batters! Slower one, bowled full and angled into the leg stump, Aiden Markram just nudges it inn front of mid on and scampers across for one.

Andre Russell To Aiden Markram
In the air but will land safely! Hits the deck hard and bowls it around off, Aiden Markram looks to stay leg side of the ball and loft it over long off but gets it off the top edge and the ball goes over mid off and plugs in the outfield. They get a couple of runs.

Andre Russell To Reeza Hendricks OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! What a review! Andre Russell runs in from over the stumps and starts with a bit of a loose delivery as he angles this one on a length and down the leg side. Reeza Hendricks misses the flick and the ball goes past the pads straight into the gloves of Nicholas Pooran who appeals for a catch but is turned down. West Indies do review it and UltraEdge shows that there was a bit of an inside edge and Russell now becomes the leading wicket-taker for West Indies in all of T20 World Cups. Hendricks' slim run continues!
Andre Russell will bowl from the other end.

FOUR! Oh, that is delightful from Quinton de Kock and South Africa are off to a flier here. Quick and short, turning back in from middle with some additional bounce. Quinton de Kock rocks back and cuts it really late and through the vacant third man region for another boundary.

FOUR! A real loosener to begin with from Akeal Hosein and South Africa are underway with a boundary. Quicker and flatter from around the stumps and angled into the pads, Quinton de Kock just tickles it away and the ball rolls away into the fine leg fence.
