>>New Zealand beat South Africa by 4 - goes to first world cup final.
LOL, close indeed! The 4 refers to "wickets" rather than "runs": NZ got 18 more runs than SA but technically they won with only one ball to spare following arcane rules when the opening side doesn't get its full 50 overs.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
