PARIS : Wales coach Warren Gatland said his England counterpart Steve Borthwick must be ready to counter the "dark arts" of South Africa's Director of Rugby Rassie Erasmus ahead of their World Cup semi-final on Saturday.
Netherlands captain Scott Edwards said a belief in "total cricket" led to their biggest-ever World Cup victory following Tuesday's stunning 38-run victory over mighty South Africa.
South Africa succumbed to a Dutch double as the Netherlands claimed a second monumental upset victory over the Proteas at a World Cup in less than 12 months.
After Afghanistan's historic win over defending champions England last week, minnows Netherlands also pulled off another upset in the ongoing World Cup on Tuesday as the Dutch stunned South Africa by 38 runs in a rain-reduced 43-overs-a-side contest in Dharamsala. Netherlands skipper Scott Edwards led from the front with an unbeaten 78 to steer his side to 245-8 before they bowled out third-placed South Africa for 207. During South Africa's innings, the Dutch players were seen reading some instructions from a piece of paper.
Netherlands captain Scott Edwards hailed Tuesday's stunning Cricket World Cup triumph over South Africa as a "big win" as Proteas skipper Temba Bavuma admitted the 38-run loss would "hurt".
There will be honest conversations in the South Africa camp after a stunning 38-run defeat by the Netherlands on Tuesday put the brakes on their impressive Cricket World Cup campaign in India, captain Temba Bavuma said.
The Netherlands arguably produced the biggest upset of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, defeating the unbeaten South Africans to register their first win of the campaign. Defending a total of 245 runs, in a 43-over-per-side contest, the Dutch bowled out the Proteas for just 207 runs. From skipper Scott Edwards to pacer Logan van Beek and spinner Roelof van der Merwe, there were many match-winners for the Netherlands in the contest. One of them was seamer Paul van Meekeren, a guy who delivered food through Uber Eats in 2020 to make ends meet.
Following his side's 38-run win over South Africa in their ICC Cricket World Cup match, Netherlands captain Scott Edwards said that he is proud of the team for their victory and came into the tournament aiming for a shot at the semifinals. A three-wicket haul by Logan van Beek, a half-century by skipper Scott Edwards and an all-round show by Roelof van der Merwe helped the Netherlands beat South Africa at Dharamshala, two days after Afghanistan caused an upset by defeating England.
