South Africa slipped to 24- 3 in response but David Miller had 59 from 46 balls saw them go home with two spare balls.

Miller and Aiden Markram put in 76 for the fourth wicket to turn the game back in favor of South Africa after their bad start with the bat.

Markram eventually fell in 16th but Miller held his nerve to see South Africa cross the finish line in a thrilling finish.
Previously, Bangladesh briefly entered the top two with a dramatic victory over Zimbabwe, who are also still in a position to qualify.
In Sunday's second match, the Netherlands were eliminated following the loss to Pakistan, whose chances of progression are now very slim. They need to beat both Bangladesh and South Africa and hope for several more results to suit them.
