ENG vs SA Highlights: South Africa shocked reigning champions England with a resounding 229-run victory in a dramatic World Cup match at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium. South Africa had earlier lost to the Netherlands. 

This stunning effort is one of the most significant victories in ODI World Cup history, leaving England reeling from their greatest defeat in this renowned event.

Dominant Show with Bat: 

Earlier on after losing the toss South Africa amassed an enormous score of 399/7, showcasing their strength with the bat. The most impressive performer was Henrich Klaasen, who gave the crowd a breathtaking century. With 12 fours and four sixes in his aggressive 109 runs off 67 balls, Klaasen was quite successful. 

In just 61 balls, the middle-order batsman achieved his century. Before being removed by Adil Rashid, Reeza Hendricks scored 85 runs off of 75 balls, which was a critical contribution. After reaching his half-century, Aiden Markram, the temporary captain, contributed with a crucial 42 off 44 balls.

England was in Trouble Early on: 

When they were on the field, South Africa was unstoppable. Leading the way with two crucial wickets was Marco Jansen, assisted by Lungi Ngidi with one. England was reduced to a pitiful 24/3 after their attempt to chase a daunting 400-run total broke down.

Historic Defeat for England:

At the end of the game, England had suffered their biggest defeat in ODI World Cup history. With a staggering margin of victory of 229 runs, it is the 14th greatest in the tournament’s history. 

Without a doubt, it was England’s most significant World Cup defeat ever. Their greatest loss to date was in the World Cup of 1975 at Lord’s, where they lost to India by a score of 202 runs.
