England vs South Africa – Champions Trophy 2025 Semi-Final Race Heats Up!
The Champions Trophy 2025 is at a thrilling stage, and all eyes are on the final Group B match between England and South Africa. This game isn't just another fixture—its outcome will determine the complete semi-final lineup. India, New Zealand, and Australia have already secured their spots, leaving one last place up for grabs. The stakes couldn't be higher!
With South Africa currently sitting on three points, they are in a strong position to advance. A win or even a close defeat should be enough for them. However, England, who have yet to win a match in the tournament, face an almost impossible task. They must beat South Africa by at least 207 runs to knock them out and give Afghanistan a miraculous entry into the semi-finals. Given England’s form, this seems highly unlikely, but in cricket, anything can happen!
Meanwhile, India and New Zealand will battle it out in their final Group A game, a match that will decide who finishes at the top of the group. The winner of Group A will face the second-placed team from Group B, while the Group A runner-up will take on the Group B winner. As of now, there are multiple semi-final scenarios in play:
