We weren't blessed with many nail-biting contests in this World Cup but this was certainly one. It was a crucial game in the chase for a semi-final spot, which made it all the better. Pakistan were bowled out for 270 and South Africa were in control at 206-4 before they slumped to 250-8. That became 260-9 but Keshav Maharaj and Tabraiz Shamsi just got them over the line.
