After getting bowled out for 69 in their opening game, South Africa folded for just 97 against Australia on Saturday (October 25) as their batters put on a horror show. Alana King's record seven-wicket haul paved the way for Australia's ruthless win, that has kept them unbeaten in the league stages, and confirmed the semifinal lineup with the defending champions set to take on India in Navi Mumbai on October 30. England will be taking on South Africa in the first semifinal a day before.
