The Spar Proteas faced an uphill battle from the start, needing to outscore Uganda by 64 points or more to advance to the semifinals.
Despite the team’s best efforts, this mission proved unsurmountable, as their second preliminary stage Group G encounter ended in a 52-50 score at the CTICC.
New Zealand advanced to the semifinals alongside dominant Jamaica, who won all five of their matches and will be confident heading into the knockout rounds if their form continues.With few options, South Africa will now attempt to salvage their pride in a match against Tonga on Friday, which will determine positions below fourth place.
