South Africa beat India by 7 wickets in 1st T20I

[Dee1990]

wow where did bcci find these umpires

you want some tissues?

 

[Sidilicious]

wow! what a shot to get 100!

 

[Lurker_Ind]

No words.

Sharma bossing around. Total carnage.

 

[aniket1911]

It is true Indian are good players of spin...but one should never underestimate a bowler....because they day one does and takes it for granted...thats when they get surprised.

True.

Indians already lost there status of good player of off-spin.

 

[BaaliSoda]

Brilliant 100 from Rohit (hopefully 1st of many to come)

 

[Indian_Supporter]

Yes yes yes yes yes....Rohit Rohit Rohit

Read that in Jim Ross voice

ITs the fallout from the India SL series, where both teams went OTT. So, they would rather it be quiet than sledging.

Okay, that makes sense.

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Relax Anuk bhai.

India - Lanka series is over now. Get over it quickly.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Superb knock by Rohit

 

[giri26]

Rohit and Kohli striking at the same pace but it seems like Kohli is cruising. Brilliant hundred by Rohit. If he stays till 20th over India can get to 220.

 

[Dee1990]

Perfect time for Raina to come on!

 

[Enforcer]

Brilliant! now bring Raina. No Dhoni please.

 

[Sidilicious]

good catch

 

[Bilal7]

We need bouncers.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Come on India, need 200

 

[theariezman]

I am missing Yuvraj at this occasion. He was one of the perfect most suitable guy in this situation. Hope he will gain his form back.

AB will manhandle our bowlers in this patta

 

[Dee1990]

Ugh two quick wickets..not good!

 

[ChachaCricket]

SA back in it.

Yuvraj takes some time to settle down. Raina can hit from the 1st ball itself

 

[Sidilicious]

ABD will score a 100 in 25 on such a patta
I can just see Mohit and Axar Patel seeing their every other ball being hit for a six!!

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Dry ball doing the trick.

Rohit

Time for some tuk tuk by Dhoni.

 

[giri26]

220 is difficult now. They will do well to reach 200.

 

[Sidilicious]

Match over. Dhoni will score 10 of 10 balls now

 

[Enforcer]

BIG BIG wicket this

 

[giri26]

MS Dhoni isn't great in this format, too much pressure on Raina. Great chance for SA to pull back and get us under 200. As I type Dhoni plays 2 dots .

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Match over. Dhoni will score 10 of 10 balls now

You will be lucky to get 10 of 10 from MSD. Will be more like 6 of 10.

 

[ChachaCricket]

Lol these umpires are crap.

 

[Enforcer]

what a pathetic T20 batsman

 

[battler]

Dhoni should just retire from t20's

 

[giri26]

I hope Dhoni retires from T20 and only plays ODI's. He isn't a great T20 player. Kohli can lead this team.

 

[Justcrazy]

cricinfo not working ???

 

[Juansar_07]

Another 3 biggies.Rohit went crazy again at home as expected.His prayers have been finally answered after a long time.

I would trust Parthiv Patel more than MSD in T20's.

 

[BaaliSoda]

Indian batting and bowling has been atrocious when it comes to death overs in the last 18 months or so. With MSD at the crease (who is woefully out of form or on the verge of retirement) only makes things that much more difficult for quick scoring.

A score of 200 seems a bit of stretch if these two (including raina) does not go blitzkrieg in the remaining 22 balls.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Now i am not seeing 200

 

[OS_89]

rubbish umpiring

 

[battler]

by raina

 

[Sidilicious]

Nah. Let Raina lead this

 

[Enforcer]

This is pathetic

 

[Justcrazy]

raina

 

[Bilal7]

Mahender "Forbes" Singh Dhoni can be destructive too.

 

[Enforcer]

Raina

 

[jabarjabar]

I have no clue why we're not playing Uthappa in this format. It's ludicrous.

 

[navitrk]

Rohith can lead t20 well. He has credibility of winning 2 ipl

SACHINIST

 

[anuk]

short is the way to go against these guys

 

[giri26]

Raina needs to somehow edge us over 200. Take majority of the strike.

 

[Justcrazy]

This will be tough chase for SA

 

[Enforcer]

Now i am not seeing 200

Especially when is there

 

[Justcrazy]

Only AB can save the SA here

 

[Justcrazy]

Especially when is there

200 is easy here . Raina can hit lusty blow.

 

[giri26]

Normally Indian bowling needs +20 at least from the Par score. Hopefully these two can get us over 200.

 

[theariezman]

SA looking towards AB

Raina should keep Dhoni out of strike for the most part if India are to score over 210.

 

[Juansar_07]

A wicket fo SA.Kohli out for 43 - Abbott.

Spoiler

 

[Justcrazy]

182 / 3


12 balls left

 

[Enforcer]

Raina is certainly a GOAT contender in T20s.

 

[Enforcer]

Anything less than 200 is a cake walk here. 220 is the par score.

 

[giri26]

SA has done well to pull this back.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Thank God no second run.

 

[Enforcer]

TBH i would have preferred Aksar patel over Dhoni .

 

[giri26]

Well with Raina gone, 195 is the max India can get from here.

 

[ChachaCricket]

Dhoni playing a good knock.

Big wicket.

 

[Bilal7]

"Mr. Forbes" Dhoni wants to take this game to the last ball.

 

[theariezman]

Thats very unfortunate for India Fans those who always wanted dhoni to face every ball when on crease now wanted to keep out of strike.

Hackadu to come in.

Gone! Bye Bye India!

Morris gets Raina .....

 

[Juansar_07]

Rohit gone for 106 - Abbott.

[Zahid87]

Wait till AB comes on against the likes of Kumar....seems a small ground.

Carnage.

 

[Enforcer]

Will be interesting with Hackudu and Dhoni

Dhoni is past his prime now. His peak was from 2007-2012. Now he is just a big name, but plays like a tailender.

Ok the clown title goes to Rayudu...that was pathetic...and this is pathetic from india after being in such a dominating position.
