By Redoy K

South Africa maintained their unbeaten streak at the T20 World Cup, defeating reigning champions England by seven runs in a thrilling Super Eights match. Chasing 164, England faltered despite a strong partnership between Brook (53) and Livingstone (33). Nortje’s crucial final over and Markram’s spectacular catch of Brook sealed the win for South Africa. Earlier, De Kock’s 65 and Miller’s quick 43 helped set a competitive target for the Proteas.
