New Zealand v South Africa: Semi Final - 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup

South Africa have been regarded as the chokers of the ICC World Cup since they have always made it to the knockout round but have failed to qualify for the final even once. Their best finish at the World Cup is their semifinal appearances at the 1992, 1999, 2007 and 2015 World Cups.

The Proteas have all of their four semi-finals as England defeated them in 1992, Australia eliminated them in 1999 and 2007 while New Zealand conquered their challenge in the 2015 World Cup.

The rainbow nation have only lost 18 out of their 55 matches and played two ties whilst winning 35 matches. They have played the most number of tied World Cup matches as they tied a game against Australia in 1999 and versus Sri Lanka in the 2003 World Cup.
