This is South Africa's third win in three matches, and they are perched at the top of Group D with sixpoints. The breezy win also boosted South Africa's Net Run Rate, while New Zealand lost some advantage in this department too. David Miller (24 off 17 sealed a well-deserved victory with a six in the first ball of the 18th over. He then landed two more telling blows, sending back the struggling Rachin Ravindra (13 off 8) to edge one that nipped away, and David Miller effected a sharp catch at short-third. Mitchell fell for 32 off 24 balls (2x4, 1x6) before offering a catch to Tristan Stubbs off Lungi Ngidi.
