Hosts had victory in their sights before Marizanne Kapp stole the vital cup match for South Africa. The White Ferns now have to defeat the defending champions ...
They next meet fellow unbeaten side Australia and then have further opportunities to clinch a semis spot against the West Indies and India. They made light work of India on Wednesday, knowing they couldn’t afford another loss to make the semifinals. Like elite athletes at their peak, our sports journalists are highly trained in the art of news. So we're asking you to support us with more than your attention. That would give them eight points, which still may not be enough for the hosts to make the last four, with Australia and South Africa heading the points table on eight already, and India, the West Indies and England all hunting a semifinal place. New Zealand lost their latest round-robin game of the tournament by two wickets in a thrilling finish to South Africa in Hamilton on Thursday.
Amelia Kerr's three-four and Sophie Devine's 93 go in vain for New Zealand, who go down for the third time in the tournament. Firdose Moonda16-Mar-2022.
Devine fell seven runs short of a second century at this World Cup and put New Zealand in a position to push for a big score. New Zealand lost six wickets for 30 runs in 46 balls, and failed to bat out their 50 overs. When Trisha Chetty, who was with Kapp in the England game, arrived and swung big but got a leading edge for Mackay to collect a return catch, South Africa needed 18 off 17. Off the second, she ran a single to long-on, and then met Khaka mid-pitch for a lengthy conversation. Kapp smashed Devine over mid-off for four and then pushed her to long-on to ensure she would face in the final over. The result left South Africa one win away from securing a semi-final spot, but New Zealand are in a precarious position and at risk of missing out on the knockouts.

48.2 Devine to Ismail, out Bowled!! Knocked 'er! Another batter trying to take on the bowling even with Kapp at the other end and perishes in the process. The game kept swinging like a pendulum in the last 10 overs and it was the experience of Kapp they got South Africa over the line. 48.4 Devine to Ayabonga Khaka, 1 run, in the air and safe. The throw hits Ismail on her head and she will have a concussion test We play England on Sunday and it is going to be a cracker of a game. But the pair departed during a mini-collapse and it needed a calm Marizanne Kapp to see them over the line once again. We spoke about keeping out their strike bowlers and get off to a good start, we did that in their first spell but disappointed with the way we finished. But at the end of the day we will take the points and go. There are million different things we can pick out in that game and do differently but at the end of the day credit has to go to South Africa. We have to move forward pretty quickly. We just kept crawling back in, cricket's a funny game and we have seen in this tournament games are going to the wire. South Africa go level on points with Australia and are the only two teams yet to lose a game. Today it is South Africa's day and time for them to celebrate.

The bottom line at the end of a day in a World Cup is that you have to make sure you get the two points.” He said: “Realistically we haven’t played the kind of cricket that we have been playing over the last year and a half. We want to be playing with a smile on our face because we know that when we’ve played well in this tournament, it’s when we’ve done so enjoying each other’s company and being really relaxed’. That will be my message to the girls. She added: “It’s the same message that has been said throughout ‘Have fun and enjoy the occasion, it’s a World Cup at home and another opportunity to represent our country. “It's really important that we have our own space, that we can switch off and get away from cricket because at times it can be all-encompassing. “What we can control is how we play, how we prepare and how we plan.
Marizanne Kapp was again South Africa's hero as they edged a thriller against New Zealand, getting home with two wickets and three balls to spare.

Marizanne Kapp produced yet another all-round performance to take her team to victory against New Zealand in the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup.
The White Ferns skipper may have narrowly missed out on her second century of the tournament but did enough to post a challenging target for South Africa. Khaka took a quick single to win it for her team with three balls to spare. It looked like South Africa were cruising to victory with the partnership of Wolvaardt and Luus before Amelia Kerr worked her magic. Frances Mackay ended the sixth-wicket stand of 28 runs between Chloe Tryon and Kapp with the former holing out in the deep in the 46th over. It was a bit of a struggle for Tazmin Brits initially but Wolvaardt kept finding the boundaries to keep the run rate in check. Chasing 229, Lizelle Lee and Wolvaardt started positively for South Africa. Lee, who hadn't lived up to the billing in the tournament, looked in good touch before calamity struck.
