Aamer Jamal to Rabada, FOUR, smashed, the target is now down to 8 runs - back of a length and on off, Rabada backs away, clears his front-foot and hammers the pull back over the bowler's head

Aamer Jamal to Rabada, FOUR, beautifully played, South Africa are almost there, they're almost there and the crowd has gone into a frenzy - a proper half-volley outside off and Rabada clears his front-leg on the drive past extra-cover, they're one shot away now

Abbas to Marco Jansen, FOUR, bring on the noise. Bring on the WTC final. SA have booked a ticket. So, Stop the press. Coming to the ball, Marco Jansen stayed back and opened the face of the bat to run it down to third man for a four. Fifty for the duo. One of the biggest partnerships for SA in Tests in the context of what was on line. SA win by two wickets and have entered the final of the WTC for the first time

PAK 211 & 237
RSA 301 & 150/8 (39.3) CRR: 3.8

South Africa won by 2 wkts

Partnership: 51(50)

Masood:
Extremely proud of the team. Going forward, we need to be ruthless. We were in a reasonable position twice. We could have extended the target while batting. We have pointed out things. We lost wickets in a cluster. We had them 8 down twice in both the innings. We could have had the extra cushion when Jamal and Shakeel were in yesterday. I am a huge believer in learning. We have to get over the line. We have to seize those moments. We have been making those same mistakes. You want an effort like that like that of Abbas. Saud should have gotten a hundred had we batted bette

If you think its hard leading West Indies…being a black leader of post Apartheid South Africa is hard on steroids

Bavuma:
Quite an emotional moment for me. Lot of joy and happiness on our side. We did the hard way. But glad we won. I was still sulking. Aiden get them going. Wasn't a lot of conversations. We still had the confidence. I didn't come out to the viewing area. It is a big one. Not just for myself. But for the coaches. The way we started our campaign against India. We weren't given much of a chance. We weren't ruthless. But we kept finding ways. We hope the guys can get confidence from performances like these. Guys get picked on when they do badly. We would like to enjoy the moment and take stock of what we have done.

Agree.
Still it was lovely to see both black and white kids and adults hugging and smiling together.
That said, the return of overt racism is no easy course to navigate.
