Where To Watch New Zealand vs South Africa Semi-Final Live

Where To Watch New Zealand vs South Africa Semi: The second semi-final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be played between South Africa and New Zealand. The winner of the NZ vs SA semi-final will face India in the final in Dubai on March 9.

Rohit Sharma’s team booked their place in the Champions Trophy final—India’s third consecutive final in an ICC tournament; they lost the World Cup 2023 final against Australia but won the men’s T20 World Cup 2024 final against South Africa—by beating Steve Smith’s Australia on Tuesday in a thrilling encounter.

That was India’s fourth win in four games in this competition, and the Men In Blue are favorites to clinch the title on March 9. But they are certain to get a stiff fight from either the Proteas or the Kiwis, both of whom have done well in this tournament.
