That's about it from the first quarter-final - not the pulsating encounter we'd hoped for, and not the ODI farewell that Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene would have anticipated. But congratulations South Africa, for having got the monkey off their back - they've finally won a World Cup knockout game, as you can read in Stephan Shemilt's match report. Auckland awaits.

If you're an England fan, don't forget the Test squad for West Indies is named at 11:45 GMT - you can hear it announced on BBC Radio 5 live and read about it on our Sportsday Live rolling sports news service.

Tomorrow, the focus switches to Melbourne where India take on neighbours Bangladesh. It's another 03:30 GMT start of play, so set your alarms and make sure you join us from 03:00. See you tomorrow, folks.

Looking ahead to Saturday's quarter-final between New Zealand and West Indies at Wellington: "It is a worrying game for New Zealand, as you do not know what you are going to get with the West Indies.

"If Chris Gayle fires, and they get some kind of score with some good hitting in the middle order, you don't know what the West Indies bowlers can produce if they get a sniff of victory."

More from Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews, on the impending retirements of Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara: "It's disappointing to not make it a memorable one for Mahela and Sanga. On behalf of the nation and the team I thank them for their invaluable service. The best thing for us would have been to go to the final and win it for them but it was not to be."

Dennis Ethan: Hats off to Sangawardene. The two legends of the game finally bow out. Go Sri Lanka! Proteas now think they've won the title yet they've got Kiwis on Tuesday at their own turf. Gonna be Boulted at Eden Park.

Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews: "130 was not much on this track. There were no demons on this track, we thought we could get at least 250 and give our bowlers a chance. But we didn't bat well. Maybe it was nerves, we didn't go for our shots and it's easily our worst performance we have done in the World Cup and it happened to be in the quarter-final.

"We all knew South Africa had a good bowling attack, but we just did not bat well from ball one. I thought we were a bit nervous, but that's the way it goes. Anything can happen in the quarter-finals and all the teams left are capable of winning it."

Captain AB de Villiers on South Africa's prospect of winning the World Cup: "I'm quietly confident. I'm always the positive kind of guy - I always believe in big things.

"I spoke to Morne Morkel, who loves fishing, and I said it's almost like you've got the big fish on the hook and you've got to reel it in."

Looking ahead to the England Test squad announcement at 11:45 GMT:

"Jonathan Trott was the best player for the Lions on their tour, but he batted at four. I would have opened with him in South Africa.

"I hope he worked out his technical issues. He needs to bat as far back as he can in the crease, as his head was falling to the off side and he was flicking the ball in the air.

"If that has not changed, he is going to be in trouble. But he is a calming influence, so as long as they have done the research with the medical teams, I would take that gamble."

South Africa captain AB de Villiers: "I'm very proud of what the guys achieved here today. These knockout games are difficult games, difficult situations.

"We had a really good feeling when we came to the ground today. We were almost obsessed with our goal.

"We always knew JP would probably have to bowl 10 overs, so for him and Imran Tahir to come on in a crucial stage of the game and perform like that gives the spinners a lot of confidence."

Chris: Regarding the vote; amazing that Sri Lanka, who were on their way to a good hiding, got more votes than the Windies!

If you missed it earlier, 25.8% of those of you who voted think New Zealand will win the World Cup.

Here's some news of a rare England victory down under: the England Learning Disability side have beaten their Australian counterparts by 86 runs. Daniel Bowser won the man-of-the-match award for his unbeaten 115 from 66 balls.

Looking ahead to the semi-finals:

"At Eden Park if South Africa play against New Zealand in the semi-final, they have got to attack in the first 10 overs, and try to force the issue with field changes. If McCullum gets in against a fifth bowler like Duminy on a ground like that... and also that ground is not big enough for Tahir's wicket celebrations!"

More from South Africa's hat-trick hero JP Duminy: "I'm very pleased with that performance. I've taken five-wicket hauls, but never consecutively. Just before I bowled the ball I thought 'hey, this is my hat-trick ball'.

"It's one of those days when everything clicked. The hunger to succeed was immense. In the build-up there was a lot of tension in the camp, we came into the game fired up and we were going to give our all."

If you're just joining us expecting the game to be building towards a climax, I'm afraid it's been and gone. Sri Lanka collapsed for a stuttering 133 in 37.2 overs, with Kumar Sangakkara making 45 but rapidly losing partners at the other end - five wickets fell for 13 runs in just over three overs, while part-time spinner JP Duminy took a first career hat-trick.

South Africa then knocked off the runs within 18 overs, with the out-of-form Quinton de Kock making 78 not out from 57 balls.

"Today Sangakkara left a lot of balls. he almost gave himself too much time to get in and set the game up. In this era of one-day cricket you have got to be busy, impacting on the opposition and asking questions of your opponents."

vanhunks: Kaushal is Sri Lanka's brightest prospect. Watch him in four years' time.

Michael Vaughan
Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special

"Sri Lanka always compete, and it is very rare they have a three-hour period where they are not in the game. But it is no way for two legends of the game like Sangakkara and Jayawardene to bow out.

"Realistically, Sri Lanka just have not performed. I think Sangakkara will look back on his innings and feel he did not take enough risks."

South Africa all-rounder JP Duminy on TMS, paying tribute to the retiring Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene: "The cricket world will miss them - they are outstanding cricketers who have contributed massively to world cricket.

"I have become good friends with them and they are great people. They always give their best on the cricket field, but when you are having a beer with them in the changing rooms, they are great human beings."

South Africa spinner Imran Tahir, who took 4-26 to win the man-of-the-match award: "I can't complain. All my hard work paid off. I've been thinking about this game.

"I've got everything from South Africa so I feel I have to pay the country back. I'm really pleased and honoured to be part of this team and to do my part. If you look at our team, there are some really good and some great players. To be playing with them is a dream come true for me.

"It's just a great feeling and that's what motivates me every day. We've been working really hard for this and we're hoping for another two good games."

Simon Cotton: End of an era. Sanga and Jaya, two legends in the truest sense of the word. And gentlemen to boot. We'll miss you.

Quintin23: Sri Lanka say goodbye to their best performers in ODI ever!

Lachlan Keay: The SCG has always been known to be a spinner's friend... JP has shown why.
