S.A enter into semi final

South Africa became the first team to enter into the semifinal beating West Indies by 20 runs.
W.Parnell shines in S.A victory,he take 4 wics and only conceding 13 runs.

Dwayne Bravo and Lendl Simmons, however went on to do the repair work and tried to consolidate the innings. But after a brief innings Bravo got out.

Simmons, though, held on to his wicket, but at the other end Shivnarine Chanderpaul failed to sustain. That made West Indies' job tougher.

Simmons then fell after playing a brilliant knock but till the time he was there he kept alive West Indies chances.

West Indies task became tougher when Ramnaresh Sarwan also followed his teammate back in the paviilion.
