South Africa will hope to address their batting frailties against spin and produce a solid all-round show when they face four-time champions England in the first semifinal of the ICC Women's World Cup here on Wednesday. En route to the knockout stage, South Africa suffered two heavy defeats and their batting came apart against spin on both occasions. Left gutted after being bowled out for 69 in their opening game, the South Africans recovered well to record narrow but gritty wins over New Zealand, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan. However, their struggles against spin resurfaced in the final league game against Australia, who bundled them out for just 97 in 24 overs. While the South African batters failed to pick the line and were undone by the drift against England, they were completely left gobsmacked by Alana King's leg-spin in the match against Australia. England will look to exploit this South African weakness again and rely not only on their all-round strength but a

Left-arm spinner Noman Ali was the architect of Pakistan's triumph with a match haul of 10-191
South Africa was a nervy 51-2 in pursuit of a record 277 runs to beat Pakistan after day three of the first test at Gaddafi Stadium on Tuesday. Ryan Rickelton and Tony de Zorzi, South Africa's highest scorers from the first innings, were on 29 and 16 respectively at stumps. The highest successful run chase in Lahore was 208 in 1961 by England. On Tuesday, 16 wickets fell as the spinners continued to prosper on the dry pitch with variable bounce. Pakistan bowled out South Africa for 269 in the first hour to grab a 109-run lead on the first innings, but then the home side was all out for 167 in 46.1 overs just after tea. That still set a daunting target of 277, and Pakistan's strike spinner, the 39-year-old Noman Ali, took out Proteas captain Aiden Markram and Wiaan Mulder cheaply for the second time in the match. Rickelton, who survived a dropped catch, and de Zorzi handled the 15 overs to stumps, lifting South Africa from 18-2 to 51-2 at a little more than two runs per over. De
