I agree, SA should of scored more in this match however I think the Pakistan bowlers bowled well at the vital times during the match which is why the SA middle order couldn't put any partnerships together and get to 220 - 230 runs. It was a good team performance by Pakistan and in the end they dominated SA with their batting. Normally the series would be over but as this series is a 4 match series, SA still have a chance to draw the series.

Yeah.. Pakistan is leading the series 2-1 and if South Africa manages to win the 4th match, then the series will be drawn. Overall, it is a very good series for Pakistan. They won the ODI series 2-1, and they have a good chance of winning the T20I series as well. On the other hand, South Africa needs to self-introspect about why they performed so poorly. Their batting seems to be OK, but the bowlers are leaking too many runs.

Have you watched the T20 match between Pakistan and South Africa? South Africa lost 5 wickets in 20 overs and scored 203 runs. But still, Pakistan won this match very easily. The South African bowlers bowled very poorly. Pakistan's two openers have batted brilliantly. Mohammad Rizwan is unbeaten on 73 off 47 balls and Babar Azam has scored 122 off 59 balls. This is the highest run in Pakistan's T20 history.

Ideally South Africa should have scored 220-230. But they lost too many wickets towards the end and the middle and lower order didn't clicked today. Janneman Malan and Aiden Markram gave them such an excellent start and it was followed by another quick cameo from George Linde. At one point, they were 141/1 after 13 overs. But their bowlers failed big time today. Beuran Hendricks went for 55 runs from his four overs.

There are many bets placed on stake by many gamblers on Royal Challengers Bangalore to win at odds of over 5.8 and it looks like they have a chance to win the match as Sunrisers Hyderabad looks like they messed up once again as they already lost 5 wickets and they need 30 runs from 15 balls and it is not going to be an easy chase and they need Jason Holder to produce some boundaries now or loose the match.

 


SRH is a much weaker team than RCB, to add to their misery their middle order is struggling this season. I did think once SRH might be able to change the end result of this match if they can hit a couple of six. But, they are now losing wickets and struggling to score the singles. They will lose this match.
SRH lost 6 wickets for 10 to 15 runs which means how weak their middle order is, they should include some experienced players as well been though if they are not in good form because their experience can help in such a horrible situation when wickets are falling with no stop.

RCB is on the top of the table which is rare to see every year, hope the curse on them will be cleared in this season. Cheesy

This is the problem when the team is over-dependent on a few players. In the batting department they are dependent on Warner and Bairstow. And for bowling, they depend too much on Rashid Khan. And from what we have seen today, individual efforts are not enough to win a match. Rashid bowled his heart out (4-0-18-2). Similarly, Warner also made a half century with a strike rate of 145. But despite all this, they lost.

Edit: Jason Holder is gone.

SRH middle order was weak all the time so they don't have to lose too many wickets from now on to win this match.

Have to agree with this. After Jonny Bairstow, it is a bunch of players who are not in the best of form (at least with the bat) right now -  Vijay Shankar, Abdul Samad and Jason Holder. Out of these three, Samad and Holder may be suitable for short bursts. But if they need to bat before the 15th over, then things will get complicated. Rashid Khan at no.8 can also bat, but I would rather expect Warner and Pandey (and maybe Bairstow) to take SRH near the target.

SRH won the toss and selected to bowl first, until now they are in great control because they got 2 early wickets.
It turns out that Royal Challengers Bangalore are moving back their default setting. This one going to low scoring match, batsmen were struggle only Maxwell manage to hit 50+ Let's see how SRH can chase specially on pitches like this yet he bowls first, they should always bat first because as they have strong bowling lineup can defend low scores.
Maxwell scored a fifty after 4 years and it came at the right time which helped RCB to put a defending total for their opponents. While SRH took an early wickets after tempting Saha with too much dot balls still Warner and Pandey took the pressure away with some big shots.

SRH needs 93 from 78 balls, but SRH middle order was weak all the time so they don't have to lose too many wickets from now on to win this match.

RCB has collected only 149 runs in 20 overs. Very little collection. Maxwell played a great inning of 59 off 41 balls. SRH's batsmen can easily win this match if they bat a little more carefully. SRH's squad has many experienced batsmen. If an SRH does not lose the first 2 wickets very quickly, they will win today.

The match looked already over when Russel got out, he wasn't meeting the balls which shows that he is not in great form with his bat after covid. Hope they will do more practice to get things done better in the upcoming matches.

RCB vs SRH from Chennai, I am excited about the toss because defending scores becomes easy there due to no dew factors.

Russell was not in great form during the previous edition as well (IPL 2020). He averaged just 13.00 with the bat and made a grand total of 117 runs during the entire tournament. His strike rate was below 150.00 as well. At least this time, he seems to have regained his form with the ball. He took 5 wickets in just 12 balls and that prevented the Mumbai Indians from posting a decent enough total. If that is the case, then Russell needs to be included in the playing XI as a bowler and KKR needs to strengthen their batting lineup.



He was good with the ball but KKR could won that match even if he played at 100 strike rate, and both teams failed to score in the death overs which means the bowlers also can win matches for their team.

SRH won the toss and selected to bowl first, until now they are in great control because they got 2 early wickets.

Once again Pakistan started badly the 3rd T20I at Centurion  Huh  Look like they will lose this match because South Africa made 132 runs till now with only one wicket down. Janneman Malan made 53 runs in only 44 balls and is still playing. Very poor performance by the home team.
South Africa is striking at 10 per over and if they are able to maintain that and not loose much wickets they can score above 200 runs and this exactly the reason we cannot trust Pakistan all the time when placing a bet as they will surprise you and they too have the batting dept to chase the score as South Africa is also not having their best bowlers.

Looks as if South Africa will easily make a total of more than 200. Won't be surprised if they end up with 220-230. However both the openers are back in the pavillion now (Janneman Malan and Aiden Markram). And now Heinrich Klaasen and George Linde are also gone. Rassie van der Dussen is still there and if South Africa want to cross the 200 mark, then he needs to take the responsibility. They have depth in their batting, so I would say that 200 plus is very much achievable.

I don't think Rohit Sharma is an ordinary captain. He is as experienced as a batsman, just as experienced as a captain. Although yesterday's match was won by Mumbai Indians only due to luck. The Kolkata players became overconfident so they lost the match.

Can't say that it was purely due to luck. Krunal Pandya bowled 4 overs and conceded just 13 runs. That built up the pressure and then Bumrah and Boult bowled with a tidy line and length. Russell and Karthik were struggling out there and once Russell got out, KKR didn't had enough strength in their lower order to make enough runs and chase the target. Apart from the two openers (Nitish Rana and Shubman Gill), none of the other batsmen made a two-digit score for the KKR.

Despite having such a good batting line-up, the performance of Mumbai's batsmen is disappointing. However, KKR's bowlers bowled brilliantly. Russel has taken 5 wickets in 2 overs. Moreover, Cummins and Shakib bowled great. I hope KKR will easily win today's match.

If you have an ordinary captain, then you lose matches even with the best players. On the other hand, if you have an intelligent captain, then you can win matches with average players. The first scenario is applicable to teams such as Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals, while the latter scenario is applicable for teams such as Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings. Rohit Sharma's captaincy is not working for Mumbai Indians.

 
Well, Rohit Sharma got the most trophies in IPL even than Dhoni means he got something and today KKR lost the match which is at the hands until 17th over of the second innings. Russel shine with the ball but extremely poor with the bat, he was one of the most destructive IPL batsman but now he is one of the reason why KKR lost the match tonight.

I don't think Rohit Sharma is an ordinary captain. He is as experienced as a batsman, just as experienced as a captain. Although yesterday's match was won by Mumbai Indians only due to luck. The Kolkata players became overconfident so they lost the match.
