In his final game as captain, Jos Buttler won the toss and England decided to bat against South Africa at the Champions Trophy.

The Champions Trophy semifinal resembles the one from the 2023 ODI World Cup. South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and India made it to the tournament's final four.

South Africa secured their place in the Champions Trophy semifinals after hammering a struggling England by seven wickets in the last Group B match here on Saturday. South Africa first dismissed England for just 179 before comfortably chasing down the target with 20.5 overs to spare.
