Hashim Amla gives S Africa good start

NEW DELHI: ​Hashim Amla led from the front as he notched up 30-ball fifty to put South Africa on top against England in their last Group 1 league match of the ICC World T20 at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong.

Scorecard

Amla smashed six boundaries and two sixes during the course of his half-century

Amla came out all guns blazing to give South Africa blistering start and continued to hammer England bowlers all over the park and took Proteas past 50 runs in the sixth over.

Play was disrupted because of floodlight failure forcing the players to walk off the field.

The lights were out for ten minutes before the players came back out and play continued.
Earlier, England skipper Stuart Broad won the toss and decided to field against South Africa.

With regular captain Faf Du Plessis serving a one-match ban for slow over rates, AB de Villiers leads South Africa.

Farhaan Behardien replaced Du Plessis while Wayne Parnell came in for Lonwabo Tsotsobe.

England started with a loss against New Zealand, courtesy rain that robbed them of a chance to defend their total of 172/6, but the Broad-captained side brought its campaign back on track with a six-wicket victory over table-toppers Sri Lanka.

With back-to-back victories, South Africa have put themselves in contention for a semifinal berth and they will look to seal the berth.

South Africa had started their campaign on a sour note, losing to Sri Lanka by five runs, but Proteas notched up successive wins against New Zealand and the Netherlands in the next two games to stay in the hunt.

Teams:

England: Michael Lumb, Alex Hales, Moeen Ali, Eoin Morgan, Jos Buttler, Ravi Bopara, Tim Bresnan, Chris Jordan, Stuart Broad (capt), James Tredwell, Jade Dernbach

South Africa: Quinton de Kock (wkt), Hashim Alma, AB de Villiers (capt), JP Duminy, Farhaan Behardien, David Miller, Albie Morkel, Dale Steyn, Beuran Hendricks, Imran Tahir, Wayne Parnell
