9th over: South Africa 58-0 (Wolvaadt 33, Brits 19) The first ball from Nat Sciver-Brunt disappears over mid-wicket for four more to Wolvaardt. Natalie Germanos is somewhat surprised that South Africa have chosen to bat, thinks it is playing into the hands of England’s powerful batting line up. 10th over: South Africa 67-0 (Wolvaadt 35, Brits 26) Nine more tagged onto South Africa’s score. 4th over: South Africa 14-0 (Wolvaadt 4, Brits 8) Ecclestone time. 12th over: South Africa 83-0 (Wolvaadt 43, Brits 33)Brits goes over the top but a back-peddling Alex Capsey can’t reach it. Wolvaardt throws the bat and misses at the last ball – a touch of frustration perhaps. 13th over: South Africa 90-0 (Wolvaardt 48, Brits 35) England REVIEW for an LBW against Brits – but it looks legside and in fact the replay shows a glove. They’re lucky to pick up a leg bye from a ball that should have been called dead, then Wolvaardt is able to dispatch Dean quite easily, culminating in a stylish drop to her knee and and an up and over drive into the crowd for six! Eighteen from the over – and a delighted South Africa leave the field. South Africa can’t really get hold of her and have to make do with singles. The second ball is a floating full toss engraved with the words hit me – and Kapp duly obliges, pulling it high and to the rope. 2nd over: England 21-0 (Wyatt 6, Dunkley 6) Ismail sprints in, dark chestnut ponytail swinging side to side.

“The players made a good transition between Florida and here,” he said. “Charles was the only left -arm bowler that we had in a seam situation,” Waldron said. “With Charles we were warming up doing shuttles on the best piece of surface on the property and he ran back and just felt some pain. “The losses are hurting because the players have put in so much prep work. “Matt was attempting to take a catch just over his shoulder and fell back and landed on his shoulder. “Morale is high and everybody is doing good,” he told The Royal Gazette.

But it came to an end in the opposite fashion, a batting collapse preceded by a negative and sour end to the first innings. Shabnim Ismail took two wickets in the sixth over, with Alice Capsey falling to a spectacular one-handed catch by Brits - one of four takes by the player of the match. It was a thriller that England probably should have won, but were left to rue a sloppy performance in the field that saw South Africa post an imposing 164-5, ultimately leaving them too much to do with the bat.

Ecclestone did finally remove Wolvaardt in the 14th, the batter sending up a leading edge to Dean at point three balls after reaching her half-century; while Brits was caught at long-on in the 18th. Two balls later, Dean failed to snaffle a catch in the same position; Sciver-Brunt was irate, and Dean got an earful. As so often this tournament, the England captain Heather Knight turned to her spin triple threat – Sophie Ecclestone, Charlie Dean and Sarah Glenn – but this time, Plan A did not quite seem to work. Incredibly, she took the last two with a bandaged arm after her dive to snaffle the second. For a while, the cricketing gods had shone on England’s chase – they reached 50 without loss within the first five overs, as Danni Wyatt (34 off 30) and Sophia Dunkley (28 off 16) repeatedly cleared the ring fielders by a matter of inches. England needed 13 off the final over; Ismail kept her nerve, and rattled Heather Knight’s stumps in the process.

England were heavy favourites against South Africa but lost their Women's T20 World Cup semi-final - where did it go wrong?

"She's still bowling very well so we'll see what happens. "She is putting more pressure on her team-mates. It makes you physically shake. Their batting success has been built around the top order, particularly the exemplary Nat Sciver-Brunt. "It makes you more nervous. "This loss certainly will not define us as a team, but we wanted to make the final and there was a real belief in the side that we could go all the way." After a brilliant opening spell in the powerplay, Katherine Sciver-Brunt was taken out of the attack and saved until the end - a potentially risky move given the fast bowler had conceded 19 runs from the last over against India. It will take England time to digest a difficult day, but they have a huge opportunity in this summer's Ashes against Australia to prove themselves and their dynamic brand of cricket. When she fell for 40, England's middle-to-lower order was tested for the first time, chasing their highest total of the tournament, and they looked a batter light. England were heavily favoured for good reason - in the group they thrashed West Indies, Ireland and Pakistan, setting a world-record 213-5 against the latter. They were heavily beaten by Australia in the Women's Ashes and 50-over World Cup final last year, before they finished fourth in the Commonwealth Games. But an underdog with nothing to lose is a dangerous thing, as England learned when they were knocked out of the Women's T20 World Cup following a tense six-run defeat by the hosts in their semi-final.

Scores: His innings helped them bat for 84 overs. Ananda record a morale boosting victory against Dharmaraja, while centuries by Oween Salgado and Nimuthu Gunawardena for St. Thurstan lost their first five wickets before lunch for the addition of 107 runs. A five-nothing whitewash at the hands of the Caymans in their most recent competitive outing last year suggests that the Bahamas will be outsiders to progress, though if skipper Marc Taylor or Kervon Hinds fire they may have the next best shot at a podium finish. Convincing wins over the hosts in two warm-up matches ahead of the tournament underlined their status, with Delray Rawlins and Kamau Leverock especially looking a cut above the grade. For the three teams winning through this tournament, a turn on the global stage will be just one step away as they head to the Regional Final in Bermuda at the end of September. Hosts Argentina are joined by Bermuda, The Bahamas, Belize, Cayman Islands and Panama to vie for three qualifier berths alongside Canada at the Americas regional finals, one step away from the T20 World Cup.
