Which team will win the Champions Trophy game between India and South Africa on June 11th?

[MenInG]

Simple question - lets see how people feel.

 

[ToeCrusher2]

India! India! India! #BleedBlue

 

[Arham_PakFan]

India.South Africa will crumble under pressure.

 

[SandyB]

Bleed Blue for life.. As long as SA don't make us BLEED too much

 

[classic]

Easy to answer this one ...India ..quick 50's from all top 4 and Kholi making a century. SA will be bowled out with overs to spare . AB will top score with 74 not out .

 

[nextover666666]

South Africa will win. Indians bowling is overrated

 

[moghul]

On paper, SA is the better team , as everyone is expecting them to choke, they will not , for a change.

 

[Mamoon]

South Africa.

 

[Syed1]

India! India! India! #BleedBlue

Bleeding blue is a severe health issue. It indicates a serious lack of oxygen in the blood. Refer to a doctor ASAP.

South Africa would be bleeding blue from the thrashing they get at the hands of the Indian team, you need to give this advice to saffers

 

[SarfiBabarHaris]

South Africa

 

[Macho Mann]

if india can lose to srilanka, i dont think they have the quality to beat south africa

sorry but indian team just isnt good enough

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Have to go with India.

Only hope for SA is QDK.

 

[Major]

depends if India plays spinners agaisnt them

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

South Africa will win convincingly

 

[Syed1]

Also need to take into account the confidence in the sides. India are coming on the back of a whooping by SL where their bowlers managed to pick up only one wicket, while South Africa made it a match against Pak by first crawling their way to a somewhat respectable total after being 120 odd for 6 and then picking up three top order wickets and applying a world of pressure.

 

[ExplicitAI]

Have a feeling that India will win due to their disciplined bowling attack.

 

[Cryptic]

India all the way. No chance for South Africa.

 

[ManFan]

South Africa win toss, elect to field first
India: 325
Sharma ( 87 )
Kholi ( 51 )
Morkel: 3-52
South Africa: 328-5
De Villers ( 117* )
Amla ( 67 )
Yadav: 3-67

 

[PakLFC]

South Africa for sure and I will be supporting them like crazy as well. Depending on conditions but I would like to see RSA bat second if the sun is out. Common Saffers!

 

[nextover666666]

What are the chances of rain tmr

 

[CricFan2012]

India will win as it is already written on the stars.

No one can deny us an India Pakistan final on the 18th

 

[GullyCricketFlop]

South Africa

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

I want SA and SL.

 

[Ishfaq bhat]

I will go for South Africa. The number one team SA. This time the chokers tag will be erased for ever as they have much better side this time. Alma, De cock, Faf, Ab devl, Miller, Duminy, Morris, Rabada,
Hope South Africa win this time. Positive point I noticed is that they all are gentle men and deserve much more. They are not like Indians. Indian over attitude is the most worst thing and nobody like that.

 

[Haroon786]

SA.

Not an official KO game.

 

[Hasan123]

India for me.

 

[TalentSpotterPk]

South Africa InshaAllah.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

South Africa

 

[theariezman]

Lots of Ifs and Buts

But whoever chokes will fly back....

And we know who is the master.

 

[Macho Mann]

i really like india vs pakistan final so that this time we can beat them and also win trophy for the first time

but its all a pipe dream

 

[ChachaPakistani]

Cheering for South Africa. Want to see a good knock from Amla and ABD.

 

[bujhee kom]

India will win as it is already written on the stars.

No one can deny us an India Pakistan final on the 18th

Would be a waste of a final. Better just to give India the cup now in that case. Harsh truth.

 

[Sadevdesai]

On paper, both these Teams seem equal. So we will have one great match today. Indians have batted well in the CT, but their bowling fell apart against SL. Maybe the pitch was super flat ..... whatever. Team chasing will have higher chance of winning. To Bat or Field, if you win the Toss, believe me, is already decided !!!! Both the Teams, have in the past, faced such a setup, but I am sure the butterflies ever present. Soooo ..... may the Best Team wins .... and I hope no fluke incident swings the match one way or other !!!!!

 

[Sports_Psychologist]

Whoever bats second is going to win the game.. chasing is fairly easy nowadays..

 

[Farhansk]

Deep down my heart, I want Pak-Indo final but the chances look meager as I can see the South Africans come really hard on India. Their batting line-up has a point to prove, Faf, Quinton, Abraham may have a very rude surprise package for India.

I can see them coming out with full wrath on Indian bowlers. If South Africa bats first then India may have to chase 350+.

If India somehow manages to beat South Africa then I would love to watch Pak-India final on 18th but the chances for that possibility seem bleak to me.

inshala we will see that dream final, scared of fakhar zaman, luckily he didn't play against us the first match

If India beats SA they will rip through everyone else. Remember India like Pakistan is a very momentum side. Once they get momentum then there is no stopping them. The last time we got momentum was in the 2009 T20 WC.

If we beat SL and ENG in the semis then I would have been 120% certain that we will beat whoever comes to the final but with India we have the added dimension of mental block that we have to get over.

 

[Bilal7]

I really hope it's South Africa. However, the Indian spinners will make things very difficult for them tomorrow. Let's hope Amla, AB and de Kock turn up.

 

[nads_rocks]

Its gonna be India, the way south africa played against the spinners against Pak, they will play the same against India and probably ashwin might get a game now and ashwin and jadeja will run riot. India and England final it was always going to be.

I don't want a Pak vs India final. Its going to be World T20 2007 all over again they beat us in group stages they beat us in final.

No more. Ind Vs Pak final. I'd like to see an interesting nail biting final so India Vs England!

 

[cr7great]

south africa are going to thrash india by 100 runs or 7 wicket

 

[Khwaja]

south africa is going to win obviously....

De cock
De pesuis
De vielers
Amala
Parnell
Smith
Dumini
Mills

there's absolutely NO WAY that india will restrict SA to 350, let alone score it with the likes of Rabada...
Congrats to SA on victory!!

 

[Pollack]

Team that plays well will win the game. bvious

Agreed, India and Australia are the only teams who could give us the nightmare in the final but I will back my team for that challenge.

Elimination of Australia alone has increased our chances of winning this tournament substantially.

Pakistan and India going into the final with momentum on their side will be a mouth watering contest for me, we have to settle the score with them. Fans on this forum are seriously underrating our pace trio.

India will be easier opponent this time.Our bowling attack minus Wahab is a brutal force. No chance for India and perfect opportunity to overcome that mental block against India that got into our players' heads.

 

[KhanNn]

Realistically speaking, I think india

 

[Farhansk]

inshala we will see that dream final, scared of fakhar zaman, luckily he didn't play against us the first match

In shaa Allah you will see the different Pakistan in final than what turned up in a group match.

 

[Speedster777]

Inshallah South Africa

 

[Sadevdesai]

The Indians have defeated SA 3 out of 3 in CT contests. Whatever that is worth, but the Law of Averages can catch up with them tomorrow ...... maybe !!!!!

 

[dauntless]

Is that even a question! Obviously south Africa! We have better batsmen we have better bowlers and our fielding is much better! We are ready to demolish India! India is no match!
#protea fire!!!

 

[MenInG]

Still feeling lucky?

 

[hadi123]

So 1 year ago this match was. India won this match and secured their place in the semi final against Bangladesh. I started to get this sick feeling in my stomach at my point at the thought of India winning the tournament as we all knew they were gonna beat Bangladesh.
