South Africa eye semifinal spot as England crash out of 2025 Champions Trophy

South Africa are vying for a crucial semifinal spot in the 2025 Champions Trophy, while defending champions England have already been eliminated from contention. The Proteas are level on points with Afghanistan but hold a significantly superior net run rate.

They secured a 107-run victory over Afghanistan, while their match against Australia was washed out due to rain. A win against England would take them to five points, strengthening their chances of advancing. Meanwhile, England’s hopes ended after back-to-back defeats to Australia and Afghanistan.

Jos Buttler has announced his retirement as captain and is leading England for the final time. Notably, Australia have already secured a semifinal berth from Group B, while India and New Zealand have advanced from Group A.
