Australia leapfrogged Pakistan in the World Cup standings with an impressive 62-run victory in Bengaluru boxing
Hundreds from David Warner and Mitchell Marsh in a record opening partnership of 259 laid the foundations for a total of 367 for nine and a win which puts Australia in contention for a semi-final spot after defeats to India and South Africa boxing
Warner’s 163 from 124 balls, his fifth World Cup century and the highest individual score of the tournament, came after he been dropped on 10 with Usama Mir spilling a steepling catch boxing
Marsh celebrated his 32nd birthday with a second one-day international hundred - 121 coming from 108 deliveries boxing
Their partnership eclipsed Australia’s previous best opening stand of 183 at a World Cup and was the second highest in the competition’s history boxing
Australia had appeared set for a 400-plus total, but Marcus Stoinis (21) and Josh Inglis (13) were the only other batters to reach double figures as Pakistan took wickets at regular intervals from the 34th over onwards boxing
Shaheen Afridi finished with figures of five for 54 from his 10 overs and Haris Rauf chipped in with three wickets boxing
Pakistan replied with their first World Cup century from the opening partnership since 2015 - 134 boxing between Abdullah Shafique and Imam-ul-Haq boxing
Shafique and Imam were given lives on 27 and 48 respectively as substitute fielder Sean Abbott and captain Pat Cummins put down presentable chances boxing
Stoinis eventually removed Shafique (64) and Imam (70) before Adam Zampa claimed the key wicket of captain Babar Azam for 18 boxing
Muhammad Rizwan, 46 from 40 balls, and some lusty hitting from Saud Shakeel and Iftikhar Ahmed gave Pakistan hope of achieving a record World Cup chase boxing
But Zampa took four for 53 and Australia turned the screw to dismiss Pakistan for 305 in 45 boxing
3 overs and move up to fourth in the table boxing

As Handre Pollard put boot to ball, they held their breath, a night of countless kicks to be settled by one last hoist for the heavens boxing
The replacement fly half’s penalty was straight and true – the champions had found a way boxing
It was a wretched game for a wretched night upon which a rocky South Africa threatened a total horror show, yet at the same time impossible to look away from boxing
It looked for so long like the ghosts of Yokohama would be exorcised, England’s pack standing up to the challenge to match South Africa at their own game boxing
But the Springboks had just enough, RG Snyman punching over from close range and Pollard producing that final, decisive penalty boxing
There was little here to please the aesthete but by God was it a compelling contest boxing
Fears of a second successive semi-final drubbing proved unfounded as England’s unfancied underdogs swelled in stature to meet and so nearly beat the mighty Springboks boxing
Instead, Springbok spectres will stalk them again boxing
An unloved England were happy to play unlovely rugby boxing
For so long it worked, Steve Borthwick’s side backing up their belief in themselves taking the reigning, defending champions to the limit boxing
Pollard’s first-half introduction had been a substitution that said everything boxing
Just half an hour had been played and already Jacques Nienaber and Rassie Erasmus had seen enough, retrieving their hook to make a trademark gutsy call boxing
Off went Manie Libbok; on came Pollard on a night for route one rugby boxing
After all the talk of the Springboks’ evolution, after only half-an-hour they were reverting to type boxing
South Africa celebrate after RG Snyman’s second-half try (AFP via Getty Images)But as so often for these champion Springboks, it proved the right call, Pollard inevitably the man to land the knockout blow boxing
Onwards South Africa go to take on New Zealand – a battle for a record fourth men’s World Cup crown feels a fitting final for a tournament bursting back into life after the Friday night dirge boxing
Even before kick-off, there was a crackle and a fizz to the atmosphere that the first semi-final had lacked, a healthy contingent of French fans taking out their frustration on referee Ben O’Keeffe and a select few South Africans as their names flashed on the big screen boxing
It was a near perfect opening ten minutes from England boxing
The battle of the skies was always likely to be vital, and the intensity of the rain made it ever more so boxing
The entirety of England’s back three, plus centre Joe Marchant, won their first aerial contests, while Maro Itoje’s lineout pressure resulted in a pinch at the front and a not-straight throw to the tail boxing
South Africa infringed twice at ruck time in their own 22; Farrell capitalised both times from the tee boxing
Tone set boxing
Steve Borthwick’s side had come with next to no intent to play running rugby, over-resourcing every ruck to make certain of the ball boxing
The caterpillar would form, the chasers mass, eager travellers ready for their next flight boxing
A game of dribs and drabs inevitably became fractured and fractious, captains Kolisi and Farrell jawing at one another and the referee boxing
Manu Tuilagi sparked a scuffle by placing an arm around the neck of Cobus Reinach, resulting in a South Africa penalty, before Farrell’s failure to hold his tongue a few minutes later moved Libbok within a kickable distance boxing
South Africa’s fly half knocked through his side’s opening three boxing
England fell narrowly short in a compelling physical contest (Getty Images)His opposite number re-extended England’s advantage immediately after, full-back Steward like a bounding gun-dog on the chase and forcing a backfield error boxing
The next high hoist was Elliot Daly’s to chase, the wing detonating the chest of Duane Vermeulen boxing
England, unloved but unbowed, were making physical statementsThe replacement ten was on the board via his right boot soon enough, a simple starter from just right of the posts after a rare English aerial error boxing
Soon enough, normal service resumed - after England’s 22nd kick from hand of the half, Farrell’s fourth clean strike from the tee left their half-time lead six points boxing
Everything seemed to be coming up roses boxing
Granite-shouldered George Martin was thumping everything in sight, landing a series of heavyweight tackles; scrum half Alex Mitchell boxed clever, flighting his kicks from the base beautifully boxing
With Pollard already on, Faf de Klerk and Willie le Roux were always likely to arrive early in the second half, stability through the spine for South Africa clearly key boxing
With the rain intensifying, the errors mounted, Jamie George uncharacteristically tossing two lineouts asunder boxing
South Africa had yet to fire a shot but at least had the intent to do so boxing
It was a match that could have been swung by one supreme bit of skill, and a lovely move boxing
Le Roux’s hack ahead was too strong, ball trickling dead with the veteran full-back chasing in vain boxing
Martin, Mitchell and Joe Marler departed, three of Borthwick’s boldest selection calls taking leave together, job appropriately done boxing
Their bums had barely hit the bench when they rose to their feet, peering around the dugout to watch Farrell launch a drop goal seemingly from central Paris boxing
Once ball left boot, there never seemed even a smidgen of doubt - was this to be Farrell’s Wilkinson moment?Owen Farrell’s drop goal looked to have put England on the verge of victory (AP)At that stage, England’s four outside backs had a combined 17 run metres, all from one Steward kick return boxing
Aesthetically-pleasing the gameplan was not but those with English hearts cared not, sweaters shed to reveal red roses on white chests right around the Stade de France boxing
On a rare attacking opportunity, Farrell might have made more with an overlap on the left but could not resist another kick boxing
In truth, it was a touch aimless, but a ball skimming over a sodden surface was never likely to settle in the hands simply - through Kurt-Lee Arendse’s hands it went like a greased weasel boxing
England could not make much of the position and the momentum started to turn boxing
Ox Nche providing immediate impact on the loosehead for South Africa, and Snyman stomped with intent from the second row, too boxing
A kick to the corner from a penalty in England’s half allowed Snyman a close-range carrying opportunity – the lock is a a Goliath even among the South African colossi and would not be stopped boxing
Nche went to work once more, earning a scrum penalty on halfway boxing
Pollard hoisted and through it went – England had been kicked out boxing
