Ryan Campbell
Former Australia wicketkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
South Africa are going to be hard to stop. They have ticked every box in this tournament.
They have a massive belief around the group and are starting to bask in the glory of their younger players who have developed.
A half tracker from Blessing Muzarabani and Tristan Stubbs pulls it for a couple to get South Africa over the line.
The Proteas go into the T20 World Cup semi-finals unbeaten.

To have pushed South Africa to the eighteenth over, Zimbabwe will feel they have missed out by not scoring 160 or 170.
They need to go away and think about how they improve on this.
Blessing Muzarabani.with a wide long hop Tristan Stubbs chops it like he's taking the top of boiled egg, and picks up another single.
A miscued slog from George Linde brings another single.
Can South Africa win it in style?
Blessing Muzarabani is back but Tristan Stubbs and George Linde content to get there in singles.
South Africa need five off 16 balls.
Ryan Burl tosses the first delivery of his second over and George Linde shovels it behind square for four.
With the boundary banked Linde and Tristan Stubbs milk the next few deliveries for singles.
The Proteas require seven runs from 18 balls.
Ryan Campbell
Former Australia wicketkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
South Africa will be pleased they have been tested by Zimbabwe. They said they would have batted first but they equally would be happy with being put under the pump a bit.
There's been guys who haven't really had a hit that have had time in the middle and they've brought three bowlers in and they performed well.
They are in as good a position as they can be.
More funky bowling changes from Sikandar Raza as Brian Bennett is given a bowl for the first time today.
Bennett drags on down and George Linde whips it to the boundary for four.
Linde and Tristan Stubbs largely content to prod and poke for the remainder of the over.
Ryan Burl is thrown the ball by Sikandar Raza. Can his leg-breaks get the breakthrough?
No. but it's fairly tight with just three runs conceded.
All that six hitting from South Africa a little earlier has left them needing singles.
Tristan Stubbs and George Linde looking composed.
Zimbabwe need to create a bit of theatre from somewhere.
Tash Farrant
Former England bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
Bowlers always know better than anyone. It was not a bad shout but Sikandar Raza is shaking his head wondering what he was thinking.
Tadiwanashe Marumani covers his face with his wicketkeeping glove.
Sikandar Raza smiles.
George Linde survives.

Former England bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
Zimbabwe are all convinced apart from Brad Evans.
Now then.
Brad Evans, bowling round the wicket, with a short delivery to George Linde who attempts to cut it but misses.
Has it brushed the bat? Wicketkeeper Tadiwanashe Marumani thinks so.
Zimbabwe decide to take it upstairs.
Left-arm spinner Tadiwanashe Marumani - whose first over disappeared for 17 - is back and is much more economical.
There's a big hoick across the line by George Linde but Zimbabwe field well in the deep to prevent the boundary.
Six runs off the over.
Target 154
Zimbabwe skipper Sikandar Raza looks thoughtful between overs. He does not have many runs to play around with.

That one was always going to go for six. Graeme Cremer has really struggled on this pitch today.
The experienced Graeme Cremer, greying at the temples, is summoned by Sikandar Raza.
The 39-year-old leggie serves up a full toss with his fourth delivery and George Linde hammers a freebie over the ropes for six with an powerful pull shot.
Sikandar Raza finishes with a useful 3-29 from his four overs.
South Africa require 51 from 54 balls.
Zimbabwe will have to bowl South Africa out to win this one, you sense.
