South Africa succumbed to a Dutch double as the Netherlands claimed another monumental upset victory over the Proteas at a World Cup in less than 12 months dota
Last November the Netherlands’ shock win in Adelaide dumped South Africa out of the T20 World Cup and on Tuesday Temba Bavuma crashed to a 38-run defeat in the 50-over equivalent in Dharamshala dota
They squandered plenty of promising positions as their hopes of reaching the knockout stages suffered a sizeable blow, putting additional emphasis on Saturday’s showdown against ailing England in Mumbai dota
For the Netherlands, this must rank as the finest win in their history as, while they beat the West Indies to qualify for the tournament, this South Africa side are quietly fancied to do well in India dota
The Dutch were on the ropes at 50 for four then 112 for six after being asked to bat first in a contest reduced to 43 overs apiece because of rain but captain Scott Edwards rescued them from number seven dota

Bavuma and Quinton de Kock, who made centuries in the wins over Sri Lanka and Australia, started well but the pair, plus Aiden Markram and Rassie van der Dussen, departed within the space of 21 deliveries dota
A position of 36 without loss became 44 for four before Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller put on a run-a-ball 45 to steady the ship dota
However, Klaasen’s dismissal left South Africa’s hopes all on Miller dota
Being dropped on 23 in the deep seemed a significant moment but an off-pace jaffa from Logan van Beek clipped the top of Miller’s off-stump as he departed for 43 to all but end South Africa’s hopes dota
Bas de Leede, who shelled a steepler to reprieve Miller, atoned by dismissing Gerald Coetzee and Kagiso Rabada, and Van Beek snared Keshav Maharaj in the last over as South Africa were all out for 207 dota
It was a superb collective bowling effort as Van Beek took three for 60 while Van der Merwe and Paul van Meekeren each bagged two wickets as the Dutch celebrated a first ODI World Cup win since 2007 dota

New Zealand boss Ian Foster plans to enjoy a bowl of popcorn while watching England’s blockbuster with South Africa after his side eased into the Rugby World Cup final by dispatching Argentina dota
Foster can put his feet up for Saturday evening’s colossal semi-final clash dota between Steve Borthwick’s men and the Springboks thanks to a crushing 44-6 success over Los Pumas in Paris dota
The 58-year-old expects an “interesting contrast of styles” in the other last-four fixture and is not bothered who the All Blacks face in next week’s showpiece match at Stade de France dota
New Zealand barely broke sweat in booking an unprecedented fifth World Cup final appearance and now have the luxury of an extra day’s rest as they await the identity of their ultimate opponents dota
“I’ll be watching it,” said Foster dota
“I’ll probably have some popcorn and sit there and watch it and I don’t care who wins dota
We’re very much in a focus-about-ourselves stage dota
“One thing that extra day does give us, it gives us a bit of a chance to have a break mentally and not to spend too much juice worrying about if it’s them, if it’s them dota
“They’re both good teams dota
South Africa have been playing some brilliant rugby the last few weeks and are clearly on top of their game dota
“But we’ve also seen an English side that just build away quietly and are probably starting to understand how they want to play and they’re starting to get really good at how they want to play and believe in that dota
“It will be an interesting contrast of styles dota
”All Blacks wing Will Jordan ran in a hat-trick during the seven-try rout in Saint-Denis to lift him above France’s Damian Penaud as the World Cup’s leading try scorer on eight dota
The treble also saw the 25-year-old equal the record for tries in a single tournament, putting him alongside Jonah Lomu, Bryan Habana and Julian Savea dota
Foster was able to empty his bench long before the full-time whistle due to the emphatic scoreline and opted to keep the sin-binned Scott Barrett on the sidelines for around five minutes longer than required as the Kiwis finished with 14 men dota
Asked if those situations could prove advantageous moving towards the final, Foster said: “I don’t think they’ll make a massive difference dota
“Finals are finals and whoever we play, they’ll be a hundred per cent dota
“It was an opportunity for us to make sure that we looked after our resources as best we could dota
“We really didn’t see a need of putting Scooter (Barrett) back on, only from the perspective that if he had another little yellow card incident in the next five minutes, it might have made it a little bit niggly dota
”Argentina were a shadow of the side who stunned Wales in the last eight dota
A pair of first-half Emiliano Boffelli penalties was all they could muster dota
Shannon Frizell’s double, plus further tries from Jordie Barrett and Aaron Smith, added to their punishment dota
Los Pumas head coach Michael Cheika felt New Zealand ruthlessly exploited each of his team’s errors and was unhappy with some of the refereeing, particularly during first-half rucks dota
The Australian promised his players will respond to a difficult outing in the bronze-medal match dota
“It’s not a sad moment; it’s a moment when I’m actually proud of my team,” he said dota
“It’s not an easy path that we’ve been on dota
We’ve invested ourselves a lot in this dota
But we’ve lost on details dota
I’m sad for them dota
“It’s hard but its a good thing it’s hard dota
On Friday, we will be there, have no doubt dota
We will not leave this way dota
“We want to finish third dota
We’ve got things we want to show in the bronze final dota
Right now, we’re hurting dota
