This was more like a draw!, South Africa unable to bowl out Canada and they sedately proceeded to 136, they lost but the fact remains were not bowled out

Lots of catches went down and Maraj completed a chancy but resolute fifty

This has been a defensive match and must have provided lots of experience to Canada and some worries to South Africa in bowling and batting as they were not able to run off to a huge total

We would like to say goodbye to you know and look forward to providing more live coverage tomorrow
