Tim Seifert powers New Zealand to commanding T20 win against South Africa

Tim Seifert's aggressive half-century on a tricky pitch led New Zealand to a comfortable seven-wicket win over South Africa in a tri-series T20 match on Tuesday. Opening batter Seifert, dropped in the first over before he had scored, hit an unbeaten 66 off 48 balls to guide the Black Caps to their target of 135 with more than four overs to spare. Earlier, South Africa tinkered with its batting order but the experiment of using captain Rassie van der Dussen as an opener failed to pay off as the team could only make 134-8. Reeza Hendricks top-scored with 41 off 37 balls and George Linde stroked an unbeaten 23. The two teams will meet again in Saturday's final after host Zimbabwe, which takes on New Zealand in a dead rubber on Thursday, lost three games in a row. New Zealand will go into the final with a 2-0 record against South Africa after beating the Proteas by 21 runs earlier in the tri-series. Lucky Seifert leads the chaseSeifert made full use of his let-off after Andile Simelane failed to hold onto a skier at mid-off. Seifert and Devon Conway (14) combined for the tournament's highest tally in the batting power play as New Zealand cruised to 55-1 in the first six overs. The South African bowlers were wayward with their line and length and conceded a total of 17 wides. Simelane made late amends for his earlier lapse when he found the outside edge of the bat to remove Conway, before spinner Senuran Muthusamy (2-24) picked up the wickets of Rachin Ravindra (3) and Mark Chapman (10). But Seifert continued to dominate and raised his half-century off 38 balls when he hit Muthusamy over his head for a straight six. South Africa's below-par effort in the field was summed up when fast bowler Kwena Maphaka's low full toss was perfectly timed by Seifert to long-leg for the winning boundary. South Africa top-order flopSouth Africa's batters struggled to find momentum on a two-paced wicket after New Zealand captain Mitchell Santner had won the toss and elected to field. Van der Dussen (14) struck three boundaries but attempted an over-ambitious shot against Adam Milne, only to see his stumps knocked back. Chapman delivered a spectacular run-out of Rubin Hermann when he sprinted from mid-wicket before diving in at the non-striker's end to break the stumps. South Africa then lost its way completely when in-form batter Dewald Brevis feathered a catch to wicketkeeper Seifert as he tried to upper-cut Will O'Rourke in the 10th over. Santner stifled the middle-order by removing Lhuan-dre Pretorius (1), who was demoted to middle-order from his usual opening slot, and Simelane in an economical spell of 2-26. Jacob Duffy (2-33) ended Hendricks' 37-ball toil when he had him caught at cover, and he followed it up with the wicket of Gerald Coetzee, who attempted an upper-cut but gave Seifert his second catch.

IND v ENG: Kranti Goud becomes youngest pacer to record ODI six-fer, all you need to know about Madhya Pradesh quick

India's Kranti Goud became the fifth Indian pacer — and the youngest — to pick up a six-wicket haul in WODIs after registering figures of 6/52 against England in their third WODI at the Riverside Stadium on Tuesday. Kranti also became only the second Indian to achieve the feat against England after Jhulan Goswami (2005) and the third Indian to pick six wickets in an ODI match, alongside Mamatha Maben and Jhulan. ALSO READ: All records broken and milestones achieved during England Women vs India Women third match Hailing from a small village called Ghaura in the Chhatarpur district of the Sagar Division, a young Kranti grew up watching boys play tennis-ball cricket on the ground opposite their house. She wasn't interested in the games the girls were playing; she was only glued to the cricket. For a long time, Goud didn't know spinners existed in cricket. 'In tennis-ball cricket, I used to see that the bhaiyas would just bowl fast. That's why I took to pace bowling,' Kranti told Sportstarin an exclusive interview during the 2025 edition of the Women's Premier League — her maiden WPL campaign, where she played for the UP Warriorz. The 21-year-old would go on to finish the WPL 2025 campaign with six wickets in eight matches. Kranti made her WODI debut in the final of the Tri-Series on May 11, 2025, against Sri Lanka. In May 2025, she was named in the ODI and T20I squad for the series against England.

WCL 2025: AB de Villiers turns back the clock as South Africa crush India by 88 runs

NEW DELHI: delivered a vintage performance to lead South Africa Champions to a thumping 88-run (DLS) win over India Champions in the World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2025 at Northampton on Tuesday. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. The Proteas legend dazzled with a 30-ball 63 - laced with 3 fours and 4 sixes - and pulled off a stunning relay catch in the outfield as India crumbled in a rain-hit chase. With the win, South Africa surged to the top of the standings with two wins in two, while India slumped to the bottom with one point from as many games. Shubman Gill Trains Through Rain: Outdoor Runs, Indoor Nets in Manchester Opting to field first, 's side faced the full wrath of a resurgent de Villiers, who, after a rusty outing in his comeback game against West Indies, found peak form. Supported by useful cameos from JJ Smuts (30 off 17), Hashim Amla (22), and Jacques Rudolph (24), South Africa posted a commanding 208/6. Yusuf Pathan (2/26) and Piyush Chawla (2/31) were the pick of the Indian bowlers. Poll Do you think South Africa Champions will win the World Championship of Legends? Yes, they are favorites No, India will bounce back It's too early to tell India's response was listless. With Yuvraj unable to bat due to a fielding niggle, the top-order collapsed under pressure. Only Stuart Binny (37* off 39) showed some fight as wickets fell around him. Rain stopped play with India reeling at 111/9 in 18.2 overs - far behind the DLS par score. Apart from (16), Vinay Kumar (13) and Irfan Pathan (10), no other batter crossed double digits. It was a reminder of why de Villiers, even four years post-retirement, remains a force in any format. With this win, South Africa Champions look like early title favourites - led fittingly by their evergreen captain.
