India enter semis in T20 World Cup 2022

The result of Super 12 Group-two contest today between Netherlands and South Africa, helped India enter semis.

South Africa vs Netherlands match was a huge shock for the chockers with a defeat paving a semis way for Team India.

It was one of their biggest victories in world cricket where today in the T20 World Cup Netherlands stunned South Africa by 13 runs. Probably it was South African blunder choosing to field first, Netherlands posted 158 for 4 riding on collective effort from its top-order.

The opener of Netherlands, Colin Ackermann scored highest runs for his side with an unbeaten 41 off 26-balls. Tom Cooper on the other end made 35 runs only off 19 balls. South African spinner Keshav Maharaj took two wickets giving 27 runs and nothing special was done by others from his side.

On the otherhand Netherlands bowlers appeared committed to defending the target, and rising to the occasion, they succeeded in restricting South Africa to mere 145 runs for 8 wickets with Brandon Glover giving nine runs & scalping three batters.

Rilee Rossouw as always was the top scorer for  South Africa with a not to high knock of 25 runs.
