AUSTRALIA

THE PREDICTION
We’ve been here before when it comes to South Africa. Semi-final heartbreak has been in their DNA when it comes to the Cricket World Cup and often against Australia. Who can forget the infamous tie of 1999 and Allan Donald’s run-out which saw the Aussie through due to a higher group stage finish. Or the 2007 semi-final in-which the Proteas were bundled out for just 149, leading to a simple run-chase. History can weigh heavily on a side and Australia just know how to win cricket matches at this stage of proceedings. Pat Cummins’ side boast the batting firepower to match South Africa’s and a bowling attack capable of running through any team on their day. Combine that with their unflappable character and backing Australia to inflict more World Cup pain upon South Africa has to be favoured.
BETTING TIP: AUSTRALIA TO WIN
