Super 8: 24th Match India v SA

[sohum]

they just beat IRE and BAN.ridiculous! Isn't it?

It isn't ridiculous once you look at the results and the intensity on field. They may have been off-field favourites but they've been one of the worst fielding sides in this tournament by a country mile and didn't look like they properly planned a single innings in this tournament.

i really feel that dhoni is trying to prove everyone that his last time selection was correct . But,
he missed the trick that it is a spinning trick. Though india have part time spinners. real spinner in place of Ishant sharma would be handy

some people just end up learning things the hard way.lol

I can't believe this is the defending champion

UV King of Fail? Ran out the skipper and then got himself out. Nice work UV!! XD

South Africa are awesome though, be a real shame if they don't win the thing, they've been easily the best side. ABDV is immense, Van Der Merwe's quality, Steyn is sexy, Parnell's too good for 19, Smith, Kallis and Bouch are awesome for fatties, they're just a quality side.

Botha did bowl the Doosra today though, I'm sure of it. His 2nd wicket certainly appeared to come out of the back of his hand. Tut tut.

Dhoni is crap. What a way to get run out in such a situation but he still played Test innings.

 

[SaiSrini]

I wish India bounce back after this. We can! But we got to get back down to earth. Hopefully in the next tournament, expectations would be low and also our players would have learned things the hard way from this tournament.

Maybe Sachin should reconsider his decision of playing international Twenty20 when the next tournament comes. He can hit the big shots and is a great player against all bowling. I always felt that a senior like Sachin or Dravid was needed here and I was proved right.

 

[Gurjot95]

No Dravid

He scored the most runs for us and has been the lone shining light for India. Stop your nonsense! He has done better than your KP (Kaappeee...) or whatever! It was Dhoni's mistake in that run out. There wasnt a run there. Dhoni has always been trying to steal runs off non-existent ones. So he better be prepared for these situations when his risk fails.

 

[King Pietersen]

He hasn't actually. KP scored more runs in less games.

Sorry, but that was not Dhoni's mistake. There was a definite run there, and it was Dhoni's call. Yuvraj was ball watching and ran the skipper out. Was not MSD's fault, there was a run there.

I think it's the selectors who aren't picking him...

 

[Gurjot95]

No matter India win or loss but UV is still king of T20. He proved in this tournament.

KP has done a lot better than Yuvi in this tournament. Yuvi may have hit more sixes but he's only had one good knock--and that too against Bangladesh. Honestly speaking, Yuvi may have been the only Indian bat to fire but he's been well below expected.

Yuvraj didn't run out his captain. It was captain cool who was running blindly to the end. Yuvraj scored most of the runs and gave hope that India could still win.

He actually score 1 run more than UV and his Strike rate is below UV Strike rate.

No matter India win or loss but UV is still king of T20. He proved in this tournament.

If you haven't got it yet, the reason that all Indian supporters are getting so much flak is because of comments like this. If you point yourself to the runs aggregate for this tournament, you will note there are 5 players who have outperformed Yuvi, out of which 4 are still in the tournament because they have played one or more match-winning innings.
