This team is invisible, everything is happening as it should happen. If the opening pairs fail the middle order comes up. The bowlers have been so successful that I feel the Indian team has now one of the most agressive and destructive bowling attack. Everyone in this team is in form and outperforming themselves. Another game and again completely dominated by the Indian team.
Indian bowlers are literally showing magic. South Africa whose there 6 wicket and their run is only 59 require run rate is about 8 and the current run rate is only about 3.5. so South African team is really in very under pressure now. Today jadeja took three wicket and Mohammed shami 2 wicket and Mohammed siraj 1 wicket. Although the strength of the peacer side of Indian bowlers was not seen in the Asia Cup, but now Mohammad Siraj and Mohammad Shami have been performing well in almost every match. But as always today I have to say that in this match one cannot expect such a bad performance from South Africa. South Africa are currently second in the ICC World Cup 2023 points table ranking, batting performance from them will be so bad I think no one expected it.
Edit:
I will say undoubtly that South Africa match. As I posting they have lose one more wicket already. It seems that Indian team gonna unbeatable once again.
How could you survive against this bowling attack?
Every single bowler is in red hot form, my fingers are crossed for our batters for the semis and hopefully, the finals. Avoid the batting collapse and the bowlers will win the match for you.
I really hope i am not jinxing this flow for our bowlers, at least in my mind. This bowling attack is champion, I was worried when Hardik got ruled out but atm feel incredibly safe.

Peoples don't know what to say and how things works but mostly try to create theories which never works.
If they write just to fill their signature quota, they have their campaign manager check their posts. But I don't think managers read every post of their signature participants. Stake signature campaigners are mostly not gamblers, or experts in sports but they pretend like they know everything. Of course, there are some exceptions. People like Yahoo and BitcoinGirl.Club write constructive posts and they don't engage in threads where they do not feel interested. Apart from those exceptional members, most of these stake signature participants are spammers. They don't know what they writing.

The wait is finally over!
Virat Kohli scored his 49th ODI century on his 35th birthday at Eden Gardens. He has now equaled Sachin Tendulkar's record and might even surpass it in the upcoming matches. Nothing but respect for King Kohli. Additionally, Jadeja's excellent performance has taken India's total to over 300. This score should be more than enough on this slow surface. It will be challenging to chase down this total for SA. Hopefully, India's spinners will play a significant role against South Africa's batters.
Maybe this is how to color your birthday and keep it memorable. On his 35th birthday, Virat Kohli gifted all the cricket lovers with his fifty-ninth century. Before the start of the match at Eden Garden, the Eden Garden Stadium was beautifully decorated especially the streets outside the stadium with various pictures of Virat Kohli celebrating his various celebrations. His fans will do so much for him he will do nothing for his fans it doesn't happen. I think his 49th fifty is the best gift for his fans on his birthday. India have set a target of 327 runs to South Africa, although South Africa have the ability to score 400 plus runs, I would say it is very difficult for South Africa to win this match as India have the best bowling line-up in the world right now.Virat Kohli scored his 49th ODI century on his 35th birthday at Eden Gardens.

D kock gone, I consider it a fatal blow for SA.
Like the previous matches, the Indian bowlers are bowling well today. De Kock could not survive at the crease against the bowling of Mohammad Siraj. He returned to the dressing room after collecting 5 runs off 10 balls. South African batsmen collected only 19 runs in 6 overs. Even if batting slowly at the beginning of the innings, the South African batsmen will gradually come under more pressure.I am looking forward to see how Captain Temba Bavuma bats in today's match. Although Bavuma is the captain of the South Africa squad, I don't see Bavuma playing well for the needs of the team. Despite his poor performance, he is the captain of the team. Despite having better batsmen than Bavuma in the South African squad, Bavuma is being given chances time and again.
In 10 overs of powerplay, India collected 91 runs for the loss of 1 wicket. On the other hand, South Africa collected 35 runs by losing 3 wickets. They are batting very slowly and losing wicket too quickly. We have not seen better batting than Bavuma in today's match. I will not blame the batsmen of South Africa. Indian bowlers are really bowling very controlled. Their bowling speed and length are very controlled. So the batsmen of South Africa are not able to collect runs. It is difficult to collect runs in the second innings on this pitch of Eden Gardens. The average run of the second innings of this pitch is 201 runs. South Africa are batting towards India's huge target of 327. Naturally, the South African batsmen are under pressure. The loss of De KocK's wicket has put the team under more pressure. I would not be surprised to see a South African batting disaster in this match.

Yea, I don't see why he's captain either or why is in the team, fail in all games so far. SA has good players in the squad but don't have proper captainship, if they make huge score they win otherwise they don't.
De Kock used to give good platform in previous matches, today he's gone and we see SA struggle already.

SA haven't been good at chasing, also Indian bowlers are doing extremely well, I think we'll see India continuing their winning streak.
The pitch is kinda confusing tbh. In the first 10 overs, it was looking flat but after that, it turned into a slow side drastically with a small window of favoring set batters. New batters struggled to score freely even strike rotation was difficult, which is clear from Virat's inning and he's the best in the business so this looks competitive total and if the pitch stays the same then most probably match winning total.

Proteas are definitely shaky outfits when chasing targets but if dew comes in then they would find it easy to bat, especially against spin duo.
By collecting 17 runs in the last over, India managed to set a target of 327 runs in 50 overs. Good enough they did. But India had the opportunity to bat better. They scored 91 runs in the first 10 overs but India scored only 33 runs in the next 10 overs. And this is where India lags far behind. Also the controlled bowling by the South African bowlers in the last 15 overs is absolutely commendable. In the last 15 overs I expected India to collect at least 150. But India's collection was 107 runs in 15 overs. India scored around 7.1 runs per over. South Africa's bowling was very controlled today. If the Indian bowlers can bowl in such a controlled manner, they have a chance to win. But with South Africa's batting like we have seen in this World Cup, it looks like India are going to concede their first defeat.

you are right South Africa did not do very well batting at the target in this World Cup. They lost against a weak team like Netherlands. Batting against a target of 271 runs given by Pakistan, they lost 9 wickets. South Africa was very lucky. So they were able to win against Pakistan. That's why it is not an easy task for the South African batsmen to win by batting at the target of 327 runs given by India. Also shami, Bumrah and Siraj are in very good rhythm. Also the pitch is helping the spin bowlers. South Africa's Keshav Athmanand Maharaj bowled very well today. I am looking forward to see how Jadeja and Kuldeep perform today. Scoring runs against Kuldeep and Jadeja will not be easy for the South African batsmen today.

Also the Pitch condition is on slower side so hitting the ball doesn't seem to be very easy and the ball came on to bat very nicely in the intially overs and along with Rohit power hitting ability he made it looks easier but in reality it hasn't been easy even for Kohli who spent 120+ balls can't time the ball well at the death overs. Exciting chase will make the day more spicy but Indian bowlers know the condition well, and I feel even if pacers can't do then we have Kuldeep Yadav to wrap Proteas.
Congratulation to the Bday boy and he matched the milestone of ton along with God of cricket.,

Yesterday we saw Pakistan win by batting at a huge target of 402 runs.
If they had chased full target, they would have likely fell short but oh well it's still win. But today I am very annoyed by India's batting. They batted well at the beginning of the innings. Their collection was 91 runs in 10 overs of power play. I thought the team would collect 400+ today. But they collected only 300 runs in 48 overs. However, this is a fairly good collection. But as the opponent is a big team like South Africa, this target will be very difficult to win. Kohli is yet to score a century. Kohli's collection of 99 runs from 118 balls. India will probably set a target of 325.

A blistering start by India went down the drain after Rohit's wicket. Indians were at 62 runs at just 5.5 overs when they lost Rohit and 90-ish when the power play ended but since then Gill-Rohit-Iyer added only 31 runs in the last 10 overs, some shitty anchor innings are going on from the Birthday boy Koach and Iyer.
Yeah, Rabada and Maharaj did bowl some finest overs but both batters looking defensive, especially Iyer which is completely opposite of his own gameplay.

Edit
They took their time but now back in business.

Indian players are batting well after winning the toss and deciding to bat. India collected 219 runs in 35 overs. The team scored 6.25 runs per over. Rohit Sharma is out after collecting 40 runs off 24 balls. Kohli remains unbeaten with 67 runs and Iyer 70 runs. And the way India are batting now, they will score at least 150 runs in the last 15 overs. Even collecting more than 150 is not surprising. Because Indian batsmen have this ability. Today India looks set to deliver more than 370 targets. But with the South African batsmen in great form, the match will be very competitive.
Yesterday we saw Pakistan win by batting at a huge target of 402 runs.
If they had chased full target, they would have likely fell short but oh well it's still win. The way Pakistan batted, the team could have won even if they batted at a target of 402 runs. Babar and Fakhar's excellent batting we saw in yesterday's match.
