South Africa beat England by 229 runs

An all-round show by South Africa helped them beat England by 229 runs in ODI 20 of the ongoing World Cup 2023 in Mumbai on Saturday.

South Africa batting first piled a massive 399/7 in 50 overs, whereas England could only manage 170/9 in 22 overs as Reece Topley didn't walk out to bat due to injury.

Marco Jansen led South Africa's charge with the ball. He scalped two wickets, while Lungi Ngidi picked one as England were reduced to 24/3 in the gigantic 400-run chase.

Kagiso Rabada then piled more miseries as he removed Ben Stokes for 5(8). Gerald Coetzee then joined the party as he removed Jos Buttler and Harry Brook in the same over.
