Oh what a match, SA were so unlucky today, credit to the Kiwis. How crucial was that collision between the SA fielders in that dropped catch.

Nerves were clearly visible as the 2 best fielding sides had so many fuck ups on the field. Dropped catches, missed run outs, misfields, overthrows....

de Kock should have hit the stumps atleast once, thats the problem with a youngster in a big game like this. Rain really played a part in this game, if it was a 50 over game then things could have been different.

9 down. And SA had a scare with the rain gods intervening. SA and rain (read Duckworth Lewis method) dont share a very good relationshipDon't even start, years of heartbreak. The jinx is real.

Still too gutted. An all too familiar heartbreak. Sorry mate. It was a heartbreaker for non-South Africans too. Gutted to see emotional scenes at the end. Tbh, SA had their chances, but blew it away. Lost important moments. Nerves definitely. ABD is my favourite player in the world, and the way he took responsibility is commendable. #Respect

I felt this will happen at some point, the Indian bowling was not tested till today. Aussies are batting so well and Maxwell still to come. Its all down to the Indian Batting now, at this rate Australia will score atleast 350 and its a huge pressure game. Chances are looking slim for India.

India didnt get to play Aus or NZ till the semi and that contributed towards the winning streak

There was no direction in bowling today, after Warner's wicket they got carried away and bowled too many short balls.

Clawing their way back though with 3 wickets. 300+ is a given anyway and now its upon the batsmen

During the evening the ball skids on and Aus got lot of pace, if India can weather the storm for first 10-15 overs without losing more than 1 wicket, then we have a match on our hands.

Gave a lot in the last 2 overs (49-50). Kohli has to come good and as you said, avoid giving away early wickets. Aus still remain the favourites though.
