Morne Morkel set up the game nicely for South Africa with a four-for that restricted New Zealand to 153 before the big-hitting Kemp heaved them home in style.

Man of the Match Justin Kemp

England are now out of the tournament but they could do these two teams a favour by beating India. However, if India win this and their next game against South Africa , it will be a three-way race for the semi-final spots. More fun on offer.

On behalf of my co-commentator Kanishkaa Balachandran, this is Sriram Veera signing off.

Gillespie to Kemp, SIX runs

Done in style. Typical Kemp shot. Full and on the stumps, he clears the front foot and swings through the line. The white ball disappears over long-on. Game over.

Just 2 more. It should be a breeze. Vettori has a chat with Mark Gillespie.

walks across the sticks and of course its another full toss and Pollock paddle-scoops it high over the short fine-leg fielder.

that low full toss again, but this time its at the body, short-arm jabbed away to deep square leg

Bond to Kemp, 1 wide

Slower one, short in length and well outside the off stump, Kemp goes for a cut shot and there is a noise. Did it hit the edge? Wide called.

Kemp pulls out prior to the release of the delivery. He is not happy with the movement behind the bowler's arm.

Bond to Kemp, FOUR runs

What have we got here? Yes sir, another low full toss and Kemp blasts it straight down the ground.

18.1
Bond to Kemp, no run

shout for a catch behind. Fullish, in the zone outside off stump, Kemp misses a drive, the bat hits the ground and that was the noise.

comes down again, Vettori drags back the length and pushed to the on side

Vettori to Kemp, SIX runs

Murder. Down the track, he doesn't reach the pitch but goes through with his lofted shot and why not - the white balls sails high over long-on. Maximum!

17.4
Vettori to Kemp, no run

drifting in on the pads, runs off the pad to the on side

Vettori to Pollock, 1 run

comes down the track and lofts towards long-off

17.2

Vettori to Kemp, 1 run

arm-ball, homing in on the off stump, steered to backward point and they rush across for a quick single. The throw misses the sticks at the non-striker's end. it would have been interesting had it hit

Oram to Kemp, SIX runs

Ah! here comes another full toss - what's going on here? - and Kemp blasts it way over the cow corner. Monstrous hit.

16.5

Oram to Pollock, 1 run

Dropped by Ross Taylor at sweeper cover. Just short of the blockhole, around the off stump and Pollock slashes it straight to Taylor who makes a mess of it. Expensive miss.

Oram to Pollock, SIX runs

The full tosses keep coming and some of them will disappear. This one was sucked over long-off boundary by delighted fans. Full and just outside off, Pollock sends it high over the boundary ropes

16.3
1
Oram to Kemp, 1 run

another low full toss, dipping on the middle this time, Kemp goes down on his knee to try get under the ball and mistimes his lofted shot to long-on. It falls well short.

16.2

Oram to Kemp, FOUR runs

another low full toss, again just outside off stump but unlike Pollock who went to long-off, Kemp swings it to wide long-on region.

Oram to Pollock, 1 run

It's a full toss. Again. On the off stump line, low and dipping, drilled to long-off
