This is the last of Super 8 matches in the ICC Twenty20. South Africa and India were joint favourites when the tournament started, the Proteas are assured of a semi final place but India are going home.

India vs South Africa Live Scorecard

At the time of writing South Africa are priced at 6/4 to win the tournament. Although this could be considered a dead rubber, the Proteas will want to maintain their 100% record whilst India have plenty of pride to salvage after their agonising defeat to England put paid to their chances of retaining the title.

South Africa clinched a semi final place with a win over West Indies on Saturday. Wayne Parnell is rapidly becoming the most talked about bowler in the tournament. His 4 wickets for just 13 runs against WI increased his stock still further and he now has 8 wickets in the tournament and an amazing economy rate of 5.13. Kallis has taken over as the tournaments leading run scorer, averaging 58 with a strike rate of 125.

As for India, their failure to at least make the semi finals will not have gone down well. Although packed with talent, the have failed to handle the pressure of the Super 8’s against the better sides after they cruised past Ireland and Bangladesh in the first group stage. Both England and West Indies targeted their top order with some short pitched bowling and failure to handle it resulted in India’s undoing. With only pride to play for, they may well make a few changes and could still represent a threat to SA’s 100% record but the overall mood in the camp must be one of huge disappointment.
