Portugal Colonial - Jansen helps South Africa limit New Zealand to 175-7

The winners of the Group D clash will be all but guaranteed a place in the Super 8 stage after kicking off the tournament with two wins a-piece.

South Africa, who needed two super overs to beat Afghanistan in their previous game at the same venue, took regular wickets after winning the toss and choosing to field first.

Mark Chapman top-scored with 48 and Jimmy Neesham managed a late cameo of 23 not out off 15 balls to give New Zealand a defendable total.

But dew is expected to play a part in the second innings and could help the Proteas batters.

The Black Caps started cautiously before Finn Allen, who hit 31 off 17 balls, smashed three fours and a six off Lungi Ngidi in the third over.

Fellow in-form opener Tim Seifert joined the charge with a six off Jansen, but the left-arm quick hit back by having him caught behind for 13 from the next ball.

Jansen struck twice in his next over to dismiss Rachin Ravindra, for 13, and Allen.

New Zealand slipped to 64-4 when Keshav Maharaj bowled Glenn Phillips, for one, with his left-arm spin.

Daryl Mitchell and Chapman then put together 74 runs for the fifth wicket to give New Zealand hope of reaching 200.

But South Africa's move to bring back Jansen for an over paid off as he denied Chapman a fifty with a slower delivery that the all-rounder sliced to backward point.

Mitchell fell for 32 and skipper Mitchell Santner for four before Neesham ended the innings with successive fours.
