India [230/4] beat South Africa [227/9] by 6 wickets in the 8th match of the 2019 World Cup

[Ashraful_Rox]

Bumrah on fire man, South Africa will be lucky to score 200

 

[Markhor]

That's a good line.

 

[Smbhayi]

what an over that was by Bumrah..

 

[x_KINGKHAN_x]

Expecting SA to get between 200-250

 

[pakpassfan]

People need some or other excuse to hate Indian Bowlers! Better close your eyes till its delivered and then open (I guess it looks fine after that!)

I dont think its hating on Indian bowlers..Bumrah's action is ugly looking. But he is a great bowler

 

[Usman Chadda]

Anyone else think Amla looks fidgety here?

 

[Ram Shekhar]

Anyone else think Amla looks fidgety here?

He changed his stance. Back and across to full effect. He employed the same tactics against India in our last test series and it did work really well for him.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

I hope Brother Amla scores a 100 off 125 balls

 

[big_gamer007]

Bumrah showing why he is number 1 bowler.

 

[MRSN]

Bumrah is an ATG.

 

[Smbhayi]

Anyone else think Amla looks fidgety here?

he looks tensed.. and his leg side guard can be his downfall.. lucky he's not faced Bumrah's first over..

 

[Red Devil]

Bumrah unplayable right now.

 

[Kaptan]

Alma gone
BUMRAH you beauty

 

[MRSN]

Bumrah takes Amla.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Eid Mubarak Amla Ji

 

[Nikhil_cric]

I hope Brother Amla scores a 100 off 125 balls

Oh no Bhai is out! Advantage SA now

 

[RamLakhan]

Why is Dhawan in the slips? Rahul should be there! Thank God the catch went to Rohit in 2nd slip!

 

[JattMaula]

Was that bumrah's first ball to Amla?

 

[Markhor]

Fully deserved wicket. Top class bowling from Bumrah.

 

[MenInG]

Bumrah king of swing!

 

[RamLakhan]

Bumrah unplayable right now.

He is without doubt the No.1 bowler currently!

 

[MRSN]

Bumrah has incredible amount of accuracy. Pace+movement+accuracy makes tough to play for any batsman.

 

[Usman Chadda]

he looks tensed.. and his leg side guard can be his downfall.. lucky he's not faced Bumrah's first over..

Yeah, there you go. Looked hurried when playing his strokes. Very unlike Amla.

This was bound to happen. Bumrah is getting appreciable lift from the surface here.

 

[MRSN]

Oh no Bhai is out! Advantage SA now

Sooner SA middle order exposed better for Ind

 

[dhump]

What are they feeding Rohit these days

 

[Mkumar825]

Nearly another

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

India will wear orange jersey for the first time ever against England.

 

[Ram Shekhar]

Bumrah is on fire. Easily the best bowler in this world cup. What a champion..

 

[Mkumar825]

Wow bumrah

 

[RamLakhan]

Never ever I was excited to watch an Indian "FAST" (fast it is yes) bowler bowling! That too in the world cup!

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Sooner SA middle order exposed better for Ind

Not sure our bowling is good enough for their batting. Let's see.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

What a ball Eid Mubarak Amla got his Eidi

 

[Ram Shekhar]

I think after Ponting and McGrath, this is the only time when a team has the best batsman and bowler combination in it.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why is harmless bhuvi playing

 

[asadee]

Why did Faf bat first under cloud cover?

 

[Smbhayi]

To play Bumrah you should attack him.. if you play defensively he'll be more threatening..

 

[volcyz]

Amla is completely finished

Playing everything so so late and scared of pace now

 

[volcyz]

Why did Faf bat first under cloud cover?

They are mentally destroyed already

 

[Mkumar825]

Most of run untill now from edge.

 

[Smbhayi]

Why did Faf bat first under cloud cover?

pitch will slow down and it'll be good for spinners in second innings.. they've 2 spinners today..

 

[jnaveen1980]

To play Bumrah you should attack him.. if you play defensively he'll be more threatening..

He is a smart bowler. It is not all about pace

 

[Mkumar825]

Dropped but difficult

 

[Smbhayi]

Amla is completely finished

Playing everything so so late and scared of pace now

is Faf too? he's lucky to be still there..

 

[Mkumar825]

Are Bhai itna sannata Kyu h ?

 

[Smbhayi]

He is a smart bowler. It is not all about pace

that's the best way to put him off..

 

[Mainul]

People need some or other excuse to hate Indian Bowlers! Better close your eyes till its delivered and then open (I guess it looks fine after that!)

If he were a Bangladeshi ,even a word wouldn't have been changed.

 

[volcyz]

is Faf too? he's lucky to be still there..

At least Faf is looking like he will actually score runs while Amla has been looking like getting out every ball for months now

 

[Amirforpresident]

"Interesting choice not to play Mohammed Shami today. He would've been a handful for South Africa's top order: South Africa's top three against Shami in ODI - 4 dismissals, average of 17.25. Bhuvneshwar Kumar averages 163 against them with 1 dismissal. The Indian think-tank must have felt that Bhuvneshwar is better equipped to exploit the early swinging conditions."

 

[jiduguravindra]

Bhuvi bowling at 143 km/h

 

[Hasan123]

De Kock needs to hang in there. If he can get 1 big score I would expect him to get a few in this tournament.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is a huge ground. You have to take 2s and 3s a lot.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Bumrah is a class above Archer, Starc and all the bowlers in the World Cup

 

[x_KINGKHAN_x]

Damn, imagine bumrah vs imam and fakhar, hahahah

 

[Mainul]

Easily India has the best bowling attack in this world cup. Any team would have boast of that attack.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Shami is an out and out wicket taking bowler. India made a big mistake

 

[Mkumar825]

Boom boom bumrah ... World best fast bowler

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Even 100 doesn’t seem possible for Proteas

 

[systemsrocket]

Out

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bumrah !!!!

 

[Ozymandiasza]

I'm not sure why I even bother anymore.

 

[Mainul]

Are we going to see another one sided match?

 

[AFM]

Amla failing in yet another important ICC game.

Master of soft runs

 

[MP2011]

People need some or other excuse to hate Indian Bowlers! Better close your eyes till its delivered and then open (I guess it looks fine after that!)

This.

Bumrah takes another one.

 

[jnaveen1980]

He was clueless against Bumrah. De kock plays against Bumrah in the nets for Mumbai Indians. Still can't figure him out lol

 

[Mainul]

Shami is an out and out wicket taking bowler. India made a big mistake

Who is their 3rd pacer?

 

[abhay]

IPL effect, Anyone?

 

[Kaptan]

Boom boom Bumrah!
De Cock done and dusted

 

[Smbhayi]

Booooommmraaaahhh.. Kock gone..

 

[randomcricketfan]

Easily India has the best bowling attack in this world cup. Any team would have boast of that attack.

I would say Australia is overall better while we are tied with South Africa.

 

[Hasan123]

Can remember when Bumrah was seen as a joke on this forum. My my what a bowler he has developed into.

 

[RamLakhan]

Why did Faf bat first under cloud cover?

Even I was surprised at his "Toss" decision! I was actually nervous with Indians batting first! Now its fine actually!

 

[volcyz]

South Africa will struggle to score 100 runs

What a joke of a team

 

[x_KINGKHAN_x]

Are we going to see another one sided match?

Yes, SA will not be able to set a competitive target for india

 

[jnaveen1980]

Who is their 3rd pacer?

Pandya. I mean Bhuvi should not have been played.

 

[Mean&Green]

How is bhuvi bowling at 143 something must be wrong with speed gun and another dumb decision by faf to bat first it’s swinging

 

[Hasan2K8]

Why would you bat first in these conditions, overcast, cloudy! SA have lost the plot

 

[jnaveen1980]

It is not just about wickets. It is about how made the life difficult for all the batsmen.

 

[Hasan123]

South Africa need to show guts here.

 

[Mainul]

Boomrah seems unplayable to me!

 

[Ram Shekhar]

Shami and Bumrah should start for India. Jadeja needs to replaced by another seamer.. Saini/Ishant should do.
