South Africa exit T20 World Cup after England semifinal defeat

South Africa's women cricketers fell 40 runs short against England in the ICC Women's T20 World Cup semifinal on Friday, with Nat Sciver-Brunt proving the difference for the English side (1). The defeat ends South Africa's hopes of reaching the final. Coming just days after Bafana Bafana's round-of-32 World Cup exit to Canada, it has been a bruising stretch on the international stage. The cricket side had carried momentum deep into the tournament, but England's total proved just out of reach (1).
