Series tie and India my need to learn some lessons from it. The IPL nations should be ashamed for their performance.

So, India lost against an average performing team like South Africa. The batting was a disaster for India. Defending 134 is not that easy and when the scoreboard does not have run pressure then everything else become very easy. That's what exactly happened with South Africa yesterday.

Is this a line to buy ticket for final? Don't you have online facilities? How much is the ticket price in there?

I see many posters here seems to surprised about why Indian not going with their first-class bowlers. It's not overconfidence, but it's another way around, and they lost last game because of batsmen, not bowlers.
- Don't forget India lags in ICC ranking in T-20 format and Indian team want to change their mindset when it comes to the shorter format. What that means is they are targeting more all-rounders now and make their batting line up deep as much as possible. That comes with a cost of Quality Spin duo Kuldeep- Chahal. It might be the wrong or right approach in a longer run, only time will tell. But IMHO that's the wrong approach because I think at least one wrist spinners should always be in the Playing XI if they can't fit both of them.
- No Front line Seamer in T-20 series (Bumrah). I am in Favor of this mindset when Test Match included in any bilateral series. Virat and his seamers are taking Test format very seriously which is good, and I don't see this thinking changing anytime soon except high profile competition T-20 WC and when there is no test match in their schedule.

After the win in last match against Afghan, BD peoples are more inspired to watch the final. Line is getting longer each minute.
@pffrt
This is where I'm. Behind at least 400 people. Problem is I will get 2 tickets at max. I could have some more from black market, but I don't like that to be honest. I don't get why the hell they don't available this series's ticket in Bank. I would get 5/6 if it would.

I sometimes think teams get over confident and rest their good players thinking that the opposition don't have a chance to win with their recent form. This time it turned out to be a bad decision by the Indian selectors as SA played well to restrict India to a moderate total and were able to chase down the runs easily with only losing 1 wicket. T20 cricket is too hard to predict as any team can win even if they have been in poor form and that is why I never bet on T20 matches.
The excuse given by them was that they wanted to experiment as many players as possible before the T20 world cup. But it sounds ridiculous for me. If they want to experiment, then they have these A team tours. International T20 matches are not meant for experimenting. Anyway, yesterday India lost because of poor batting and not as a result of poor bowling.
And they had superstars such as Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit Sharma in the squad (and apart from Dhawan, all of them failed). And I wouldn't make the mistake of calling Pant and Iyer as inexperienced. The batting lineup was not very inexperienced and it was the bowling that lacked experience. Playing a match at home against weak opponents, and still they can't build a total in excess of 150.
They had 1-0 lead over them and I think their statement was understandable. You can test out players in A team but you won't be facing opponents like players from the main team. So I think there is a big difference.
Continuously making the same players over and over again may make them susceptible to injuries. Plus it's good to hand over chances to young players to build a good team in future.
IMO batsman should have done a better job giving a challenging target.

Glad that i did not make a bet today on India v SA and i am lucky enough not to loose my money 
. SA bowled really well and restricted India to a sub par score and now they are cruising to victory and they are yet to loose a wicket and with India resting their top bowlers we should expect these results too .

Is Kholi too confident that his team will win even if they do not play their best bowlers. This is called over confidence and over confidence always give you a loss.

I am not sure who took the decision to rest their top bowlers as Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami nor Bhuvneshwar Kumar were playing for them and if they were in the team they could have defended any total as i consider them as the best bowling unit in world cricket at this time, may be they are rested as they are playing in Indian pitches and wanted to try new players and if the Indian batsmen does not put enough score on the board then the current second hand bowling unit cannot defend that and we saw that in this match. legendary

Great knock from De Cock, couldn't watch the match, I was late from office.
India scored pretty low, for a batting line up like India must have scored 160.

Hey UmerIdrees, I noticed you are writing Kholi instead of Kohli, you did it yesterday as well

Missed watching the match today and right enough India lost. I'm glad now I did not follow it as it looks like the score is nearing 140s all the time. Rohit again lost his wicket and I feel this guy needs to rest and they should bring in Rahul. Mostly all the big batsmen lost with Rohit and even Virat failed. Not being superstitious but looking at the score, the number 9 and 4 is scary. The scores are all 9, 19, 4, 14. Dhawan got the highest with 36. SA was lucky that we don't have Bumrah or Shami to take wickets. They managed just 1 wicket which is really horrible. Bad batting and miserable bowling.

Edit: South Africa won the match easily and i would not have believed this result if someone said this before the match.

South Africa restricted India to just 134, which is 4 runs less than Afghanistan scored yesterday against Bangladesh. It was surprising to see the overhyped Indian batsmen struggling against inexperienced bowlers such as Bjorn Fortuin and Beuran Hendricks. It should be easy for the South African batsmen, as India don't have their first choice bowlers such as Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami in the playing XI.
Hmm, India started well today. But after the second wicket goes down at 63 runs they lost their 4 wickets so quickly for the next 35 runs. So losing this 4 wickets very quickly is the main fact of their very low total score. Firstly It is very lower score and secondly South Africa is playing well till now. the score is now 25 runs in 4.2 overs without losing any wicket. So I think this match can go to South Africa"s hand in the end.

That's a beauty of T-20 format. anything can happen in the shorter format. little bit help from pitch and pretty much game over for Batsmen, its true for all Indian, Australian, England etc.
I just tuned in and surprised to see the score. What happened to Indian batsmen today ? Except Dhawan who scored 36, none of the batsmen clicked. Was there some movement in the pitch ?
If India loses today, this will be a big upset.

Now they can wish for a win. Good luck.
Draw coming
.. but SA has a potential to ruin everything for themselves. SA : 90% - India : 10%
Series is about to draw folks?
SA : 80% - India : 20%
106 runs and still 22 balls to play. Let's finish the innings first.SA : 80% - India : 20%
BTW, now I don't think they would reach 150 in the remaining 5 overs if Pandhya or Jadega lose their wicket. Is Washington sunder an all-rounder? I completely missed previous year so really don't know about him.
140ish is my new predicted score. I guess he (sundar) is.Edit:
Outstanding performance by South Africa. They restricted India by only 134 runs. Now they can wish for a win. Good luck.
India lost their 5th wicket and quite in pressure now. I expect around 150 runs after the 20 overs.
Edit: And another gone. Caught behind. South Africa is cruising now.

Anyone bet on South Africa?
It's a good chance to cash out the bet :-PNah I don't bet on T20s games because it's nearly unpredictable 1 over can make a big difference in the game. I only do ODIs and Tests were the chances of winning the bet is better
