South Africa Dismantles Afghanistan in T20 World Cup Semi-Final

Afghanistan’s aspirations for reaching the T20 World Cup final were shattered as they were bowled out for a mere 56 runs by South Africa in the semi-final held in Trinidad on Wednesday. The South African bowlers, led by Marco Jansen and Tabraiz Shamsi, each taking three wickets, ripped through the Afghan batting lineup at the Brian Lara Stadium. Afghanistan’s innings collapsed in just 11.5 overs, marking a disappointing end to their World Cup campaign.

Azmatullah Omarzai was the only Afghan batsman to reach double figures, managing to score just 10 runs. The rest of the batting order failed to put up any significant resistance against the relentless South African bowling attack. This emphatic performance by South Africa secured their place in the final, leaving Afghanistan to ponder what went wrong in this crucial match.
