South Africa beat England by 10 runs but failed to qualify for the semi-finals of the Twenty20 World Cup on Saturday.
Group 1 winners England and Australia, who beat West Indies in the first match of the day, made the final four from the six-team pool.
South Africa posted 189 for two with Rassie van der Dussen hitting an unbeaten 94 but needed to limit England to 131 or fewer to edge out Australia on net run rate.
England, who topped the group when they crossed 109, finished on 179-8 after a hat-trick by Kagiso Rabada in the final over. It was England's first loss in five matches.
Rabada's hat-trick
South Africa pace bowler Kagiso Rabada dismissed Chris Woakes, skipper Eoin Morgan and Chris Jordan on successive deliveries of his final over to complete the feat.
Ireland fast bowler Curtis Campher took four wickets in four balls in the qualification stage against Netherlands and Sri Lanka's Wanindu Hasaranga also took a hat-trick in their game with South Africa.
