even though australia did lose there warm up game against zimbabwe they should still beat pakistan south africa are a strong...
India defeated South Africa by 14 runs.
Suresh Raina is man of the match.
South African batsmen tried their best till end but it is too difficult to chase that score on west indies wickets. Jacques Kallis continued his roaring IPL form in this match also just like Suresh Raina.
Poor Indian bowling is also exposed in this match but Ashish Nehra is sensational in this tournament.
Suresh Raina is in roaring form. He scored outstanding century in just 59 balls.
Suresh Raina is first Indian to score a century in T20 Cricket world cup. Only Chris Gayle scored century before him in T20 world cup.
But, South Africa can still have hopes due to poor Indian bowling attack.
But, scoring 187 is not easy. Poor bowling performance. India scored 75 runs in last 30 balls!
Today’s matches:
India Vs South Africa
Pakistan Vs Australia
My predictions:
1. South Africa and Australia are winners.
South Africa is looking strong in all departments whereas India is looking weak in bowling.
Unpredictable Pakistan is taking on Australia. Even Australia lost in warm-up match to Zimbabwe, they are committed and have big match temperament.
Myth: Spinners have no role in T20 cricket. They will be punished severely in this ultra shorter version of game.
Reality: Spinners are most successful in t20 format. IPL 2010 proved it once again.
They excelled even on South African pitches in IPL 2009.
