As the 2026 T20 World Cup comes down to the wire, a rematch between South Africa and New Zealand will kick off the semifinals Wednesday. 

South Africa has been a dominant force in this year's tournament, beating out India, West Indies and Zimbabwe to secure their spot in the final four. Not to mention, the South Africans easily defeated New Zealand in the group stage, winning by seven wickets and with 17 balls left.

Fans have yet to see New Zealand hit their ultimate stride in this tournament. The Black Caps recovered from early losses to South Africa and England, but had their matchup with Pakistan delayed due to rain. They enter this rematch as a clear underdog, but the knockout element truly makes it anyone's game.
