# Cricket: Proteas captain Temba Bavuma won the toss and unsurprisingly chose to bat first in the World Cup semifinal against Australia at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. South Africa was much more successful setting a target than chasing it so far in the tournament. Marco Jansen is back in the team, which includes two spinners – Keshav Maharaj and Tabraiz Shamsi. Today’s winner will face India in Sunday’s final in Ahmedabad after the hosts beat 2019 finalist New Zealand by 70 runs in yesterday’s first semifinal in Mumbai.
