South Africa successfully defended a target of 163/6 against England in a must-win Super Eight stage clash, extending their unbeaten run in the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup. Quinton de Kock's quickfire 63 and a 78-run partnership between Harry Brook and Liam Livingstone were the highlights of South Africa's innings. However, England put up a strong fight with Brook's calculated 53 and some crucial wickets from Jofra Archer. In the end, it was a slower ball from Anrich Nortje that led to South Africa's victory, sending Brook back to the pavilion with just 14 runs needed off the final over.
