WATCH | Windies erupt in celebration as Proteas win sees them keep CWC semi-final spot

It wasn't just South African cricket lovers that were willing the Proteas to a win over India in their Women's Cricket World Cup clash on Sunday.

The Proteas had already qualified for the knock-out stages of the tournament, but a win for India would have seen them pip the West Indies to fourth spot on the log.

Naturally, the West Indies wanted South Africa to win, and when Mignon du Preez scored the winning runs off the last ball to give the Proteas a three-wicket victory, the Islanders erupted in celebration back in their hotel.
