South Africa and Zimbabwe had to settle for a point each as their Super 12 encounter at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart didn't yield any result, ...

Madhevere added 60 runs for the fifth wicket with Milton Shumba, who supported him well with an individual contribution of 18 from 19 deliveries. It was left-arm pacer Wayne Parnell who triggered the collapse with Zimbabwe skipper Craig Ervine's wicket in the second over of the innings. Zimbabwe scored 79/4 in their nine overs and the Proteas were set a DLS target of 85 to chase down in their quota of nine overs initially, but that was reduced to 64 from seven overs after the interruption.

South Africa were ahead of the five-over DLS par for no wickets lost, but had only faced three overs when rain ended the game.

De Kock was going for the full house and pulled the final delivery but only managed to glove it for a single. De Kock moved across his stumps to hit the first ball over short fine leg for four, then pulled a short ball in front of square for four more and then top-edged the third delivery high but safely. He top-edged a short ball high and almost over de Kock's head, but the South Africa keeper timed his jump well and snatched it with one hand. Chakabva showed some intent when he sent Ngidi over deep midwicket but Ngidi quickly dragged his length back and had Chakabva nicking off off the next ball. South Africa were well on course still, though, but the weather gods had other ideas. Ervine was still midway down the pitch and South Africa composed themselves enough to throw the ball down to the non-striker's end, where Tristan Stubbs was backing up. The pair put on 59 runs in five overs, which included 17 runs off Rabada's second over, which Madhevere used to show his class. Chakabva is still searching for his touch after scores of 0, 13 and 4 in the opening round and was tentative against Rabada but Ervine heaved at the first two deliveries he faced from Parnell before toe-ending a catch to Lungi Ngidi at mid-on. Chakabva answered the call as Rabada gathered and threw wildly, and wide, of de Kock behind the stumps. He had two stumps in his sights and nailed them, catching Williams well short of his ground. South Africa could have still won had the match officials been able to restart the game as a five-over chase. This was a similar result to

Umpires Ahsan Raza and Michael Gough allowed play to continue initially, but pace bowler Richard Ngarava slipped and injured his thigh in his follow through, ...

For most of the evening it was misty mizzle but it got to the stage where you could hear it thumping on the rooftop of the dugout. We got so close and it got taken away from us and that is probably the most frustrating part. We disagree with them but there is not much I can do off the field. With South Africa on 51-0 off three overs, spinner Sean Williams was set to bowl, but put his arm out in protest. That's time to get off the field." Gough and Raza should be praised for attempting to see the game through to a result, but the ending was not a good look for cricket, with the safety of players appearing to be compromised.
