The West Indies ended their T20 World Cup campaign last night in the Super Eight, with a three-wicket loss to South Africa on the DLS method in Antigua.

The men in maroon made 135 for 8, with 52 from Roston Chase, while Tabraiz Shamsi took three scalps.

In reply, a rain-interruption saw South Africa having to chase 123 from 17 overs, with the target being achieved with five balls to spare.

00:00In what was a do or die for both teams, West Indies were put on the back by South Africa
00:04and Antigua. Shea Hope fell for a Golden Duck and Nicholas Puran was gone for one, five
00:08for two.
00:09And this could be trouble. It is trouble.
00:14Roston Chase joined Kyle Mayers and the two had their work cut out for them.
00:18It's out towards the boundary. Is the wind pushing? Yes, the wind pushes it.
00:22Both batters, who lived charmed lives, put on a stand of 81 runs.
00:29Mayers fell for 35 and Captain Ravman Pawel won.
00:35This single then took Chase to his 50. He went on to get 52.
00:44He fell to Tabriz Shamsi, who took three wickets.
00:52Andre Russell smashed a couple sixes.
01:00But then he was brilliantly run out for 15.
01:07The Windies were eventually restricted to 135 for 8 from their 20 overs.
01:14When South Africa responded, Russell got rid of openers Reza Hendricks and Quinton de Kock
01:18cheaply, 15 for 2.
01:21A rain interruption then saw the Proteas having to chase 123 from 17 overs.
01:26Skipper Aidan Markram was caught for 18, giving Alzharie Joseph the scalp.
01:33Tristan Stubbs and Heinrich Klassen came together and put on a partnership of 35.
01:40But Joseph's pace and disconcerting bounce saw Klassen being acrobatically caught by
01:43Puran for 22, second wicket for the bowler.
01:48Chase was good with ball, removing David Miller for 4 and Stubbs for 29.
01:54With 13 to get from two overs, Chase got rid of Keshav Maharaj for his third scalp.
02:03When it came down to 5 of the final over, Marco Janssen smashed the first delivery for
02:076, as South Africa reached 124 for 7 to reach the semis, while West Indies were out.
