South Africa and World Cup heartbreaks have been going hand to hand for three decades now, and it seems that the story would continue in the semifinal against Australia as well. At Eden Gardens in World Cup 2023 semifinal, they have faltered big time and have been reduced to 24-4 in the 12th over. The third one of those wickets was of Aiden Markram who has the ability to deal with pressure, but Starc's swing and pace proved too hot to handle for Markram.

Markram was batting on 10 off 20 balls and had hit a boundary of the first ball of the over, he got out. Starc came up with a fullish delivery, outside off, inviting a expansive drive from Aiden Markram. The right-handed batter went for it but hit it off the outside half of his blade and ended up hitting it to backward point where Warner took a sharp catch.

Starc also got the wicket of South African skipper, Temba Bavuma while Hazlewood got the other two wickets to stun South Africa on a big semifinal day. It is upto the pair of Klaasen and Miller to bail them out of the trouble now but knowing Aussies, we can't expect them to given even an inch to Proteas now.
