South Africa won a very exciting cricket match against Pakistan, and this victory puts them closer to reaching the semi-finals of the World Cup. Aiden Markram played really well and scored 91 runs, and when the South African team had 206 runs on the scoreboard with 4 wickets down, they looked like they would easily achieve the target of 271 runs set by

Pakistan.
However, it got really close towards the end of the match. The last two players in the South African team, Keshav Maharaj and Tabraiz Shamsi, had to score 11 runs while facing 11 balls. Shamsi had a very close call where the umpire had to make a decision on whether he was out or not. With only eight runs needed, he was ruled not

out. Finally, Maharaj hit the ball to the boundary, earning the necessary runs to secure a win for South Africa in the 47.2nd over. This made the South African team very happy and excited in their dressing room.
