"They told us to play for Pakistan, and we played like Pakistan", Twitter reacts as South Africa wins the game against India
Miller has an air of calm composure. With this victory, South Africa has moved into first place in the points standings. Their fast bowlers set the stage with the ball by limiting a strong Indian batting line-up to 133 runs. The Indian batters, with the exception of Suryakumar Yadav, had a hard time getting things going. The Indian bowlers had other plans for the Proteas, contrary to what many people had anticipated would be an easy chase for the Proteas.

The South African pacers caused problems for the batters with their speed and bounce, while the Indian bowlers placed pressure on their opponents with their swing. The wickets of QdK and Rossouw were taken by Arshdeep in the very first over he bowled, and he did it with an outswinger and an inswinger, respectively.

Both Shami and Hardik bowled in a disciplined manner to provide support for the new-ball bowlers. When we reached the halfway point, the score was 40/3, and the asking rate was more than 9 RPO. After taking a short pause for refreshments, Markram and Miller immediately raised the stakes in the game.

The former was granted a few chances, which he used to his advantage by earning a fifty. Hardik was successful in breaking the partnership, but “Killer Miller” was able to push his side over the finish line by targeting the appropriate bowlers at the appropriate times in the last over. Although the bowlers gave a valiant showing, India’s batters and fielders were unable to live up to their potential.
