India (283/1) deliver a crushing 135-run defeat to South Africa (148) to clinch the four-match T20I series 3-1

[Croma]

There is no way kohli would have played like this in the same situation

KOhli would-be 55 (38) or something... guiding the batting

 

[IAJ]

This is epic Phainta!

 

[jnaveen1980]

This looks like IPL bowling. On the slot one after another.

Same Tilak Verman was struggling against Pakistan's emerging bowling last month.

No he has changed his mindset since then. He was very selfish at that time He is not captain now. So he has to embrace the ideology of this team as guys like paragh were breathing down his neck

 

[Croma]

Great over so far by Jansen. No six yet

 

[Devadwal]

Finally a quiet over by African.

 

[Croma]

What's the highest t20 record score ever in an international? Will this be the one?
India looks like they'll get 300 here.

300 something by Nepal?

 

[Devadwal]

Harsh call .not a no ball

 

[IAJ]

Only thing which can save SA is a major collapse here to keep India below 250

 

[Croma]

6 off the free-hit off the last ball

16: 230-1

 

[SportsWarrior]

These scores are common in South Africa.

Flat T20 pitches.

yes they are. BD scores them for fun.

Zimbabwe 344 vs Gambia. Lol

Yea people have to understand you still need mindset to bat like this.

There is something called being in form

 

[IAJ]

People can say that the bowling is second string, poor whatever, but this is still international cricket and you still have to stay composed while you are attacking. Making 40(20) is not a big deal, but when you keep dishing out tons like the top order have been doing, this is very speciall.

 

[Devadwal]

Samson has slowed down , playing for century ?

 

[Croma]

WIll Tilak get to 100 before Samson?

 

[Croma]

Both are on nervous 90's hitting ground shots currently.

 

[Croma]

No six in this over

 

[Devadwal]

I really hate this approach near milestone.

Both are slow down

 

[Croma]

Yup... both are taking singles... to get to their 100's

 

[IAJ]

Dealing in singles

 

[Croma]

44444444444

Samson moves to 99

 

[Croma]

100

SAMSON

 

[sweep_shot]

South African fielding has been shocking and hilarious at the same time

It explains why India scored 249/1 in 17.5 overs.

South Africa didn't even field their full side.

 

[IAJ]

Ton Anda Anda Ton lol

 

[IAJ]

Varma could have taken Rohit's record today but became too selfish

 

[Aham Brahmasmi]

It explains why India scored 249/1 in 17.5 overs.

South Africa didn't even field their full side.

India also didnt field full side

 

[jnaveen1980]

I really hate this approach near milestone.

Both are slow down

Yea but they are keeping it wide

 

[Croma]

100 BACK TO BACK TILAK

 

[shaz619]

When these guys go all out now in T20I’s and make these crazy hundreds, it’s mad to think Afridi made the quickest hundred (even by T20 standards) in the 1990’s, really puts it into perspective

 

[Devadwal]

Ton Anda Anda Ton lol

TON ,TON ,ANDA ,ANDA ,TON

 

[IAJ]

India also didnt field full side

Only they really need here is Bumrah, rest are fine

 

[Devadwal]

Only they really need here is Bumrah, rest are fine

Kuldeep , jaiswal?

 

[shaz619]

Insane scoring in the PP overs. In Pakistan there are no aggressive openers so they will need stick with Babar & Rizwan for the next 20 years.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Kuldeep , jaiswal?

Paragh should be playing. Not sure why they don't include him. He is six hitting monster

 

[Devadwal]

IPL Auction is less than two week away and Tilak has increased his price. 12-14 Cr easily.

 

[IAJ]

Kuldeep , jaiswal?

Well Jaisawal needs to get in the team first.

 

[Devadwal]

Paragh should be playing. Not sure why they don't include him. He is six hitting monster

Injured .Runku will be finding very Hard now to keep his place in playing eleven .

 

[Devadwal]

Well Jaisawal needs to get in the team first.

He is integral part of T20 and test team.

 

[Croma]

19: 270-1 No words

 

[Mahee]

anything below 350 is not defendable on this pitch...

 

[aboveandbeyond]

South Africa will go close. Chasing at the bull ring is favorable

 

[jnaveen1980]

Indias no 1 t20 spinner is also not playing. It is Sundar

 

[FearlessRoar]

For the 8th time in T20s and third time in T20 Internationals, two batters have scored a hundred in an innings

Kevin O’Brian (119) & Hamish Marshall (102) vs Middlesex, Uxbridge, 2011

Virat Kohli (109) & AB de Villiers (129*) vs Gujarat Lions, Bengaluru, 2016

Alex Hales (100) & Rilee Rossouw (100*) vs Chattogram Vikings, Chattogram, 2019

David Warner (100*) & Jonny Bairstow (114) vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Hyderabad, 2019

Sabawoon Davizi (115*) & Dylan Steyn (106) vs Bulgaria, Marsa, 2022

Lachlan Yamamoto-Lake (134*) Kendel Kadowaki-Fleming (109*) vs China, Mong Kok, 2024

Sai Sudharsan (103) & Shubman Gill (104) vs Chennai Super Kings, Ahmedabad, 2024

Sanju Samson (100*) & Tilak Varma (100*) vs South Africa, Johannesburg, 2024

 

[Croma]

284 to win

 

[jnaveen1980]

Well Jaisawal needs to get in the team first.

Sundar , Gill competition is very tough now

 

[Devadwal]

India 283/1 (20 overs)

17 runs shorts due to selfish batting near the hundred ny both of the batsman .

 

[FearlessRoar]

Sanju Samson's six hit a lady in the crowd during the 4th T20I, prompting quick help from spectators to ease the situation.

Don’t think Pakistan can chase this score in 50 overs

 

[jnaveen1980]

India 283/1 (20 overs)

17 runs shorts due to selfish batting near the hundred ny both of the batsman .

Not selfish. Sanju may be for a couple of balls. But Tilak was still swinging and almost got out in the 90s

 

[jnaveen1980]

No complaints. Amazing intent from these two

 

[FearlessRoar]

India look unleashed and unshackled in this format with the younger players coming in.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Glad guys like kohli , jadeja retired and Rahul dropped.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Samson - unbeaten century
Tilak - unbeaten century

Their partnership was an unbeaten one of 210 from 93 deliveries.

India post 283/1

 

[Varun]

This is why T20s aren't taken seriously.

Test is dying format @Nikhil_cric

T20 is not a serious formats

ODI is boring

To bhai seriously konsa lena h ?

Point is all formats are important but You can say this series is useless .

 

[Ab Fan]

All hail Indian team! Playing like true champions, they are building a legacy of their one, hitting tons after another for fun against the great South African fast bowlers.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is why T20s aren't taken seriously.

But that is where the money is. So it will continue growing. One has to appreciate how these guys bat compared to oldies.

 

[sweep_shot]

Test is dying format @Nikhil_cric

T20 is not a serious formats

To bhai seriously konsa lena h ?

Point is all formats are important but You can say this series is useless .

ODI and Test are the real cricket.

T20 is Mickey Mouse garbage cricket.

 

[The Bald Eagle]

SA 1/1 in 0.3 overs.

South Africa saving time of everyone

 

[Cricket Warrior]

India is really playing like a champion... they are on a super beast mode these days.

Only Pakistan can defeat them!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Probably 200 winning total here. India bowled SA out for 95 here after scoring 201

 

[jnaveen1980]

pandya will give away now

 

[jnaveen1980]

Ball is moving. 2 down

 

[Devadwal]

To be fai, South Africa are not fielding their main side.

Also, this pitch seems flat.

This type of score is often scored by Australia, England, Windies.

I thought batting is so easy .

RSA 1/2 after ( 1.5 over)

 

[Champ_Pal]

Looks like SA's chase is already off.

Indian bowlers bowling like Prime Wasim and Waqar.

 

[Croma]

2/2 : 2.1 what is this? did they change the pitch?

 

[Devadwal]

IPL contract loading........

https://twitter.com/x/status/1857467549497061854

For that first he needs to take England citizenship .

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Very impressive batting but could have been disastrous for India too.

Next time hopefully one of the batsmen drops anchor instead of playing so recklessly.

 

[Devadwal]

Lol ball is flying like crazy.

 

[gani999]

India is really playing like a champion... they are on a super beast mode these days.

Only Pakistan can defeat them!

India playing like champions and Pakistanis dreaming like champions

 

[Champ_Pal]

Ball flying and SA unable to handle the swing and bounce.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Lol ball is flying like crazy.

It was flying in the first 4 overs when India was batting too. But Samson and Abhishek still hit big shots. Luck also favored them.

 

[Sanzcool]

IPL Auction is less than two week away and Tilak has increased his price. 12-14 Cr easily.

Retained by MI for 8 crores

 

[jnaveen1980]

This approach might fail some times. But they should not switch their strategy.

 

[Croma]

SO unfair... first innings patta and then they change the pitch settings to seaming and swinging for the second innings.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Okay.

3 down now. Unless Klassen and Miller score centuries each, there is no chance for SA now.

 

[OldWarHorse]

Banana swing now. Unplayable stuff
