South Africa dominated New Zealand in their World Cup match, securing a victory by 190 runs. Quinton de Kock scored his fourth century of the tournament, while Rassie van der Dussen contributed with his second. South Africa set an impressive total of 357-4, with De Kock scoring 114 and Van der Dussen adding 133. New Zealand struggled in their chase, collapsing to 190 all out with over 14 overs remaining. Proteas’ Marco Jansen took 3-31, while Keshav Maharaj claimed 4-46. This win ended South Africa’s five-match losing streak against New Zealand in the World Cup since 1999. It also solidified their chances of reaching the semi-finals, while New Zealand’s hopes were jeopardized as they slipped to fourth in the table. De Kock, who plans to retire from ODI cricket after the tournament, expressed satisfaction with his performance and emphasized his goal of contributing for as long as possible.
