India is unbeaten when it comes to knockout games of an International Cricket Council tournament and will likely edge South Africa out in this matchup, expected to be close but with India most likely coming out victorious at the end.

Rohit Sharma was overcome with emotion as his teammates Hardik Pandya and Virat Kohli also couldn’t keep their tears at bay as they celebrated winning an International Cricket Council (ICC) trophy since 2013.

Rivalry Between India and South Africa

Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer’s partnership saved India from collapse during the first session. Both batsmen kept scoring steadily to put pressure on South African bowlers.

South African batsmen failed to seize every opportunity presented them; however, the pair still need to make big scores to exert pressure on the home side and create pressure themselves.

After an extended wait, South Africa captain Temba Bavuma returned to the field after suffering from a hamstring injury. While walking back towards his dugout he looked slightly in pain as Aiden Markram took his place.

Match Preview

South Africa opener Dean Elgar made a fighting hundred but his side could not post a competitive total against India’s bowlers who restricted Proteas batsmen to post below par scores.

Axar Patel is trying to hit the ball out of the ground to increase scoring rates but Anrich Nortje’s pace prevents him from getting a boundary hit. Axar must be more cautious during his next over.

Mukesh Kumar overstepped and allowed Miller a freehit, who then hit it to long on for two runs. Kumar earlier took two wickets – Keshav Maharaj and Keegan Petersen in his first over. Unfortunately, his second over produced no runs as batsmen sought safe shots to stay out of harm’s way; therefore, in order to save this game Kumar must improve his discipline if he wants any chance at victory.

Player Performances

Indian bowlers ultimately ended Proteas misery; Jasprit Bumrah took two wickets while Mohammed Siraj and Mukesh Kumar also picked up wickets to leave them reeling at 255/6.

Dean Elgar and Tony de Zorzi had made solid partnerships before being denied their century by Bumrah who hit them back-to-back two wickets to turn the game in India’s favour. Later, Prasidh Krishna claimed his first Test wicket by dismissing Kyle Verreynne (4) for India.

South African innings concluded when Axar Patel was caught behind the stumps by Quinton de Kock after trying to play a front foot shot but being denied by Javed Bumrah who hit him with short delivery. Due to poor light conditions, match was ultimately called off. Moving forward, South Africa will look to improve their performance against top teams in future matches.
