South Africa (137/5) defeat India (133/9) to win the Group 2 clash by 5 wickets

Indian top order were unbelievably poor...

If they just set their sights lower and played a little more sensible 160-170 was very doable...
 
Sky should farm the strike now. These guys are useless.

LOL that's the thing he didn't see that ball. Haris is the best in the world.

Got a few things to work on, gifted balls to Kohli's hitting zone for sixers, needed to bowl it full and wide.
 
India are 20-30 short

With India's bowling I doubt South Africa will have any problems getting to 130-140...
 
Excellent innings by Yadav. Tough conditions and he rose to the occasion
 
Moral victory. Atleast SKY is probably the best batter in the world.

No shame in losing to SA on this wicket.
 
Lol Parnell 3/15 in 4 overs. We do have a pathetic batting line-up.
 
Surya goes, well played...the very epitome of a T20 innings....
but our top order is to blame....pathetic batting
 
Shouldn't have needed to rely on India but that we had to, they didn't disappoint! Nicely thrown.
 
Okay, we lost to a better side. SA desrved this after being unlucky against Zimbabwe.

On a positive note, Pakistan stand a good chance against SA. These bowlers won't be so threatening on some other tracks.
 
Pakistan and India should have been fighting for second had Pakistan not bottled the first match.
 
Don't worry, its in the bag for India, Bhuvi will bamboozle the South Africans by swinging round corners.

Why not for good measure throw in the good old 'saazish' 'big 3' every one out there is get us & is responsible for everything that goes wrong for us - gravy train as well?

First 9 balls being dot kinda wrote the script.

KL and Rohit have a manhoosi about them. :)
 
Batting is tough in these conditions. The other day NZ was pathetic against mediocre SL on a far better pitch and a couple of drop catches helped Philips. Let's see how SA bats

Naa. BD haven't recovered from that Karthik's onslaught. They are our bunny. BD vs Pak has a chance to be the game of the tournament for me

Pakistan's top order vs South Africa is going to be very funny.

Yes watching them greet their eyes out will be funny when Riz is launching them into the stand and Babar is caressing ball through covers.

Hope s.africa and Pak goes for semis...

Saf and newzealand choke as usual..eng or Pak win this cup ..
Poor team ....rohit doesn't have new innovative ideas...just hang on to old formula till outcry pours in...
 
India played to many rash shots which made them collapse. Had they stuck in and played sensibly then they could of easily got to 160. But then again this pitch is not the easiest to bat on with all that bounce. So let's see what india can do.
 
The RSA bowlers looked to fast for the Indian batters. Don't think Indian boys have the bowlers to do what Africa did to them even though the RSA are known to be chokers too when chasing. I think we are out should Africa win this one, right?. If so we only have ourselves to blame over the farce versus Zimbabwe:facepalm

Bhuvi is either unplayable or garbage. Let's see which one turns up today.

'Uplayable' he was never, the odd good spell once in 2 years apart he has to be one of the biggest freeloaders in our history. should have retired in 2018
 
120kph thunderbolts incoming. Crazy how Bumrah absence makes these trundlers look 10 times worse.

If BD/ ZIM wins against IND then you have a chance
 
No score board pressure , no pacy bowlers

SA will chase this with ease, I just hope they don't win it too easy
 
We deserve to go home after losing to Zim. It would have seemed unfair if we snuck into the semis ahead of this Saffer side.
 
Pakistan’s hopes lie on Bavuma getting the rr up and building pressure on SA
