South Africa suffered a humiliating loss at the hands of India on Sunday. They were simply outclassed by well-oiled blue machine. The ‘chokers’ tag of South Africa is safe and secure again, hanging at the backpacks of each and every Protean player. South Africa were again a failure in terms of holding nerves in crucial stages, as at a time when they were controlling the game, two silly run-outs changed the game for them.

Changed the game for bad, as they could not come back into the game again. Faf du Plessis was the culprit in both the cases. The 32-year batsman later took the entire blame on him, but that was not changing the result. However, he has predicted the result of the semi-finals.

Pakistan after defeating Sri Lanka will take on the hosts England in the 1st semi-final. The match will be played on Wednesday at the Sophia Gardens on Cardiff. The Rising Pune Supergiant player also said that neither Pakistan nor the men in green will be able to outclass the high-flying hosts.

India will take on Bangladesh on Thursday at Edgbaston, Birmingham in the 2nd semi-final. India thrashed Bangladesh a few days ago. The only difference is, it was a practice game and this is the game where the winner will get the tickets to the finals of the elite tournament.The winner

Faf’s finalists

Faf, who has scored over 4000 ODI runs, said that the roster of the all-important final match will be a repetition of ICC Champions Trophy 2013’s final. India will take on hosts England. As of the winner, he was not ready to wear the predictor’s hat after carrying all the guilt. He, however, handed a slight edge to India. “That will be my final. England are the form team but India know how to win big games,” said the batsman as reported by bdcrictime.com.
