Dunno why but if neutrals are playing I'd always prefer watching a game in South Africa, Aus, NZ or Eng. over subcontinent or WIndies.
Stadium, crowd, atmosphere, pitches, broadcast and conditions are all better

So let me get this straight, every time we lose we choked?

Morris with those 2 wides and the no ball definitely seemed to get under pressure

I don't agree. I think Maxwell and Warner played a brilliant innings.

Was more interested in this match than that one sided final.
Must say i love how Aussies compete year after year. Even when they have achieved everything in cricket but their hunger for the game never dies. Any team would have imploded after scoring just 30 odd and losing 3 wickets inside 6 overs while chasing a mammoth total of 200 +. Only they could have recovered, they are the real champions in any format for me.

Too many full toss no balls, wide balls in last few overs...even fielding errors in last 2/3 balls...
If an Asia team does fielding error LS one can understand, that's not their strong suit, but how come SA makes fielding blunder all the time in crunch moment?

All the time you say? I think you're exaggerating there.

To be fair i've seen your lads fumble too many balls in crunch situations. You probably would have won today if fielding was decent in last 2 overs.
I remember WC SF, those fielding laps in crunch moments missed easy run out. Today terrible throw, half decent throw would have got him out.
3 no balls in last 4 overs and all of them hip high is shocking...

Very possibly. I just get annoyed with throwing the word choking around on pakpassion. Maxwell and Warner played brilliantly.

Rabada was brilliant. The kid has ice in his veins. But Morris with those full tosses and wides and no balls. That was pressure

Well it's frustrating for cricket fans too. Generally Pakistanis and cricket fans want South Africa to lift a cup but your team keeps disappointing us despite being the best team on paper over the years.

So those examples qualify as all the time? I think my point stands, you're exaggerating.

Happens, we're in the best t20 form of our life. Should get to WC semis at least with this lot.
Winning trophy not our of the question.
Rabada will end careers and run through line ups esp at Mohali.
Get rid of that bottler Behariden tho

I am big fan of SA big fan but really gets annoyed when they loose matches because of not holding their nerves[emoji84][emoji84][emoji84]

That's better.
Saying all the time is simply not true. Morris, who sucked today, played brilliantly against England winning us 2 matches in 2 nervy situations. How soon people forget that.
Also, it can be argued that Wiese cost us the match. Just look at those horrible stats.

Even Morris bowled 19th over very well. They are very good side, but they do need to win tight matches to get over this nervousness...

I think that is what Faf has been trying to do with all the chasing. Not sure if you've noticed, but given the choice he's been choosing to chase constantly. From memory at least.

It was certainly not what you call choking.Two really brutal world class players having a go vs bowlers.Such losses are pretty ok.SA needs to work on Behardien/Wiese part.They hardly contribute to the team.

Agreed, Behardien has no right to be in the team. Wiese is a bit tricky. Replacing Behardien with Amla and Wiese with Abbott(he can bat a bit), would be a good start. I'm sure Faf will come out all guns blazing next match.
