  1. NZ 7-0published at 1 over

    Another big drive attempt from Tim Seifert!

    He doesn't get near this delivery and Lungi Ngidi gives the New Zealand opener a bit of a stare.

  2. NZ 5-0published at 0.2 overs

    And away we go.

    New Zealand opener Tim Seifert takes a big waft at Lungi Ngidi's opening delivery and his edge flies off to the boundary.

    Tristan Stubbs hares around the rope at deep third but can't quite cut the ball off.

    Seifert then offers a bit more of a prod to the following delivery and edges that too.

    Stubbs can get to that one - Finn Allen comes through for the single and gets on strike.

    If you haven't seen the highlights of South Africa's double super-over win over Afghanistan, why not take a look before we get going?

    Both these teams have beaten Afghanistan - the other main threat in this group - so should proceed together into the Super Eight.

  5. South Africa win the toss and bowlpublished at 13:22 GMT 14 February

    South Africa captain Aiden Markram has won the toss and chosen to bowl in Ahmedabad.

    His side have made one change to the side that beat Afghanistan on Wednesday after two super overs, bringing in seamer Corbin Bosch for spinner George Linde, while New Zealand field the same line-up that triumphed over the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday.

    Oh yes, we're not finished yet.

    We've only just finished with England's five-wicket win over Scotland, while plenty of you will have been awake for Ireland's 96-run thrashing of Oman.

    Now it's onto South Africa v New Zealand, the clash of the big-hitters in group D.

    Both sides have two wins from two matches and victory in this fixture will virtually guarantee the winner a place in the next round.

    Onwards!
