Oh well it happened again. How many times do the Proteas get there look good but don't quite make it. I mean these guys must have thought that all they needed to do is pitch up but alas. Credit to India those guys blazed. Their batting was awesome and I am not an avid cricket fan so the names run away from me but that guy who was given his chance to open ( I remember the commentators said that) did superb. To add to that I don't think I have every seen such fielding from India, like I said I am not big on Cricket but I have always known them for being very slack fielders and in the past that is what let them down but not this time (oh and I heard they got help from a poor wicket...hmmmmm are these excuses?)
Proteas top order cost the team and the way their fielding session ended played a major role. I wonder how the host nation not being in the tournament will affect the mula that these grounds are making. You can only hope for two scenarios - one Australia make it to the final beacuase as much as SA supporters hate to see them win they love to see them lose, and two, it must be a Pakistan - India final played in Durban......full house garuanteed!!
Hard luck Proteas I really thought they were doing well. But aren't these tournaments funny Australia lost two games and they are in the semi-finals whereas the Proteas first loss last night determined their fate.
