SA vs NZ: T20 World Cup Semi-Final Underway

The T20 World Cup semi-final between South Africa and New Zealand commenced in Kolkata with early setbacks for South Africa. Ryan Rickelton was dismissed for a duck off his very first delivery, a poor shot to a long hop that was caught at backward point.

p>Quinton de Kock followed soon after, falling to offspinner Cole McConchie. De Kock had scored a boundary before pulling the next ball high in the air, where it was taken by Lockie Ferguson at mid-on. This marks the fourth time in the tournament that de Kock has been dismissed by an offspinner.
