a.k.a: HOOOLY SHIT!!!
I switched off the match when South Africa was 140/4. It was one in the morning, and I was tired and didn't want to make my holiday depressing. This morning I woke up to a text message from a friend that simply said "Ind won 1 run!"
Cue frantic consultation of TV news channels.
And GUYS. THEY DID WIN BY ONE RUN.
And do you know where it all went sideways for the Saffers?
The Batting Powerplay.
I mean, look. Smith was 70-odd, less than 20 overs to go, and barely 40 runs to win. India looking just as clueless as ever on the field. No sensible person would've expected anything other than a Saffer win. But they didn't.
Smith's plans in the Batting Powerplay went up in smoke, much like Dhoni's did.
And Munaf Patel? Wow. I mean, this is some serious luck. Hopefully this will be the boost India required to get their heads back in the game, and start looking a little less clueless.
It's a Pongal miracle, guys.
