South Africa had lost to Australia in last year's final in Cape Town after reaching their maiden final with a victory over England, resulting in the Aussies winning the tournament for the sixth time and completing a hat-trick. The Proteas, however, avenged their defeat in Newlands last year with a dominant eight-wicket victory over defending champions Australia in the first semi-final in Dubai on Thursday.
