THE CHOKERS CHOKE AT THE WORST TIME

Finally, South Africa batting first and we were expecting a 300+ total considering the players' form but we found that they were lucky to playing on tough tracks and chasing small totals.

It was Dale Steyn bowling the final ball of the tournament and in 2015 against NZ, he was the bowler who bowled last ball against NZ. And the results are not what expected, just like the last time.

The scenes are alive! Indian team is excited and why not to be! They have beaten my favourite for this tournament and halted their unbeaten runs of 6 matches. And also taken sweet revenge of their Group Stage match. Raina played well at the end with Kumar as they share an unbeaten partnership of 37 to guide India to their third World Cup!

How slowly was I scrolling down the page & and feeling optimistic with every single run being scored !

A real day Bhuvneshwar would've also batted like that . The boss of [HASHTAG]#ICC[/HASHTAG] Tournaments hasn't changed here as well , for Gabbar ! :cheers

Very sorry for having gone completely inactive, but seeing what you've done with the league, I reckon this was a smooth sailing for you. I really wish I could've been a part of this towards its end.
