A sensational spell of spin bowling by left-arm wrist spinner Tabraiz Shamsi helped South Africa pip Nepal by one run in the 31st match of the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. The defeat turned out to be a major blow for Nepal as they are now out of the marquee tournament.

Shamsi’s Player of the Match (POTM) performance was the key that helped the Proteas defend just 115 runs. He claimed the wickets of Kushal Bhurtel, Rohit Paudel, Dipendra Singh Airee and Aasif Sheikh to finish with figures of 4/19 in his four overs.
