South Africa knocked West Indies out of the tournament by securing a nervy win by 3 wickets (DLS method) at North Sound on Monday (June 24).
Kyle Mayers gave his side a decent start by scoring 35 runs. However, his opening partner Shai Hope was dismissed for a duck by Marco Jansen.
Tabraiz Shamsi kept disrupting West Indies' batting flow with his crucial juncture wickets. He took three-fer in four overs.
Unable to withstand the spin attack, the Windies got restricted to 135/8 (20), but due to rain disruption in the second innings, the target was changed to 121 in 18 overs.
In their chase, South Africa lost both the openers Quinton de Kock and Reeza Hendricks in the second over.
Skipper Markam's 18 (15), Tristan Stubbs' 29 (27), and Klassen's 22 (10) helped in the recovery, keeping the Proteas moving ahead steadily.
With Marco Jansen's unbeaten 21 off 14, South Africa chased down the target with 5 balls remaining.
