Holder with the new cherry with just a slip in place
For South Africa, Rabada bowled with verve and purpose as he picked up 3 wickets. The bowling was disciplined in the first half but lost it when the batsmen started to have a go at them. The Proteas have not been the best of chasers. A spot in the final beckons. Who will come out on top? We'll find out in a short while...
From 21/4, West Indies have recovered well to post 285. When Rabada ripped apart the top-order, things weren't looking great for Holder and Co. but Bravo and Pollard combined well to share a 156-run counter-attacking stand to swing the pendulum back in West Indies' favour. Even after Pollard's departure, Bravo carried on and scored his third ODI hundred. He soon fell trying to up the ante. Skipper Holder was little shaky to start off with, he soon found his element and scored a handy 40. Brathwaite came in and played a brief cameo towards the end.

Parnell to S Gabriel, out S Gabriel Run Out!! West Indies have been bowled out for 285. This was a length delivery on off, Gabriel made room and drove it towards mid-off, they were always going for the single. As Gabriel was about to complete his run, he saw Amla charging towards the bowler's end, the concentration snapped and so did the momentum. Gabriel was trying to avoid colliding into Amla, lost all the momentum and was found well short as Behardien made a direct hit at the bowler's end. Brathwaite has a word with AB, but Amla didn't come block Gabriel's path on purpose and the decision stands. S Gabriel run out (F Behardien) 2(6)
Parnell to S Gabriel, THAT'S OUT!! Run Out!!
Clumsy running from Gabriel, he might be short here. The bat is in the air and he's short of his ground as well. OUT is the call

Charles and Andre Fletcher are at the crease. Charles is on strike. Rabada will open the attack
But the principal hero of this victory ought to be Darren Bravo, who struck a stroke-filled century to rescue his side after being on the mat at 21/4. With Kieron Pollard for company, they took the attack to the Proteas and were well helped by some uncharacteristic sloppy catching. So, we are in for an enthralling final in a couple of days.
Another knockout game, and the South Africans choke themselves out of it. The team knocked out of the Champions Trophy pulled off a thumping win to send the number three team in the world packing back home. The West Indian bowlers marched through their defence getting on top of the batsmen like a rash. They never seemed to be in the contest at any stage of the chase against an inspired Windies' attack. They were undone by some sheer pace from Shanon Gabriel coupled with the web spun out by Sunil Narine. They exploited the conditions brilliantly to dismiss the visitors for an embarrassing 185.
