Jesus Christ, Saffers will always remain chokers
ICC T20 World Cup 2022

Just seen the score - wow
South Africa should honestly just retire their national team.
South Africa were 1.03 to win this game as per bookies .This is arguably the worst moment in their cricket history since the Cronje scandal. I think their dressing room is anyways a bit messed up and this is just going to make things very ugly
Half their team plays in England or NZ or even Netherlands now. Their team has been killed by their internal policies already.
He edged it?
Did we get VAR referees involved with Cricket now? Looks a shocking decision. Clearly hit the bat.
Very hard done by there.
Well that was a shocking decision.
Pakistan should win this here, and likely will be the slight favourites against NZ as well imo.
Remove third umpires, clearly ruining the game.
Pakistan peaking at the right time. They have the best bowling line up.
Incredible sequence of events today. SA completely choking.
Bangladesh at 70-1 after 10 have completely collapsed here.

Even 140 could have been match winning here but 120 is perfect for babar and rizwan. Credit to pak bowlers here.
Pakistan’s bowling in the last 2 games has been so good. They’ve choked the batsmen with their high quality options. It’s a like a nation with a manufacturing plant of fast bowlers.
I think neither India nor Pakistan should win the tournament due to their philosophy of consolidation and lack of aggression. England and New Zealand play a much better brand of T20 cricket.
South Africa, never change 
Shame we didn't take our chances in the field against them, could well have won that game too.

You mean the brand of williamson. I am not a fan of India's style either but let us not pretend NZ play any better brand of cricket. I find it even more boring.
To be fair had Pak played them in Perth, even they could have lost there. I think we would have beaten them at any other venue.South Africa, never change

But they have only Williamson and Conway with hitters around them. Pakistan have Babar, Rizwan and Shan. India have Rahul, Kohli and Rohit. That just means 10 overs of snooze-fest.
So basically 2 out of 3 in top order is a snoozefest, so not much of a difference. I really like Williamson but Kohli and Rohit are much better hitter of the balls. And Conway and Rahul are pretty much same. Rohit on his days can accelerate pretty good. He has a SR of 140 and so does Rahul.
Like I said not that Indian top 3 is that fun in t20s but NZ are hardly fun either. Pakistan same.
Pakistan are for sure the worst in that respect. Atleast, New Zealand start with Allen who has just one purpose. India and Pakistan don't care much about the powerplay I feel.
Every Pakistan match this world cup has been a brilliant watch, not quite sure about a snoozefest with them??
Babar has got 12 of 21.
I reiterate my point, every Pakistan game this world cup has been brilliant to watch regardless of big hitting.
It has been exciting overall, I dislike the slow starts.
I'd rather big hitting, but often we have seen teams go big late on as they have kept wickets in hand.
The power play I feel is a tad overstated, the power these guys have now means it doesn't offer as much of an advantage.
what a strange review
If Bangladesh apply themselves they could still make a game of this
Which we we usually see, is beyond them
They can claim that they were cheated and claim a moral victory as is par for the course for them.
Bangladesh players just don’t have the right mentality to succeed. They waste more energy on umpire decisions than trying to do the basics right.
Making a meal out of this run chase.
Pakistan are certainly a fun team to watch. So unpredictable. All ifs and buts but on review, pakistan really should have won all 5 matches in their group.
So semifinals almost follows the world rankings with #1, #2, #4, #5 in the semis. SA at #3 miss out.
Pakistan back from the dead!
SA better embrace that chokers tag now. Just an absurd loss. On a side note, Rabada has completely gone off the boil in limited overs cricket. Dunno what's up with him.
All the stars are aligning for Pakistan. Seems like an exact repeat of 92 WC. Being held in Australia. Terrible start to group stage but ended up sneaking through to semis. Semis against NZ and possible final against England....
But still think they won't win if Rizwan and Babbar keep this shit show going.

Everyone thought Group A was tough but it was Group B that threw up more surprises and turns.
KL Rahul sees out another PP maiden
KL with another opening maiden, comfortably the most selfish opener in this entire tournament.
