India vs South Africa Final Match

There is exciting match today since India is playing with South Africa in last match of series in Ahmedabad. This game is very important since last game was canceled as result of bad weather conditions, and as India is already leading 2-1, South Africa needs to win game today to tie the series. India will not have Shubman Gill due to a foot injury and so, Sanju Samson is expected to take his place but fans are eager to see captain Suryakumar Yadav play well. India will be able to get trophy or South Africa will fight back on pitch that is mostly good to bat on. So let's wait for the match and see who will win?

The match has already started, South Africa have won the toss and they decided to bowl first. By the way apart from the game and discussion, here was the trophy of 2026 T20 World Cup starts from 7th Feb and they both of the teams India and South Africa were the finalists of the last 2024 edition of the T20 World Cup that won by India, and the trophy was in the ground, Miller and Surya Kumar Yadav clicking a picture.

SKY almost killed the momentum, good on him sacrificing his wicket for a cause.

Pandaya always gets a stick for his antics, rightly so but jeez he's one of the finest hitter in modern cricket, such a clean hitter when on song and ofc full of swag.

India vs South Africa 5th T20I Indian batsmen bat responsibly The way India batsmen batted, it seems doubtful whether South Africa will be able to bat responsibly. India batsmen batted very responsibly, due to which they scored 231 runs in the allotted 20 overs, which is enough for the T20I target. They gave South Africa a target of 232 runs. I don't think South Africa will be able to easily cross the target of 232 runs. Maybe India will win the match very easily and win the series. South African batsmen will try to bat responsibly, but let's see how much they can do. However, South Africa could not bowl responsibly in today's match. Due to which Indian batsmen batted very well, South African bowlers should have restricted India to fewer runs.

[Out of mind]

India's batting performance in the fifth T20I against South Africa was really interesting today, they scored 231 runs for the loss of 5 wickets. India's batsmen played brilliantly in the opening, they scored runs quickly at the beginning and increased their score, which will be difficult for South Africa to meet the target they have given. However, at the moment, South Africa is batting well to meet India's target and they have been in good form since the beginning, Quinton de Kock is batting well, he can score runs if he stays for a long time. And if South Africa loses their wickets, then they will definitely be under some pressure and if the run rate decreases, there is a possibility that they will lose. And since India's bowling performance is good, they will put South Africa under pressure and India still has the highest chance of winning this match.

Amazing display of batting by team India in this final game of South Africa tour on India, top order gave good start then things were on same level, just Surya Kumar was who failed again to keep momentum and gone cheaply, all others contributed their best till last ball.

Lungi Ngidi failed to take any wicket, but he is only bowler with good bowling on this bowler killer pitch. Tilak Varma 73 and Hardick Pandya 63 on 25 balls done amazing stuff for their team, now South Africa already started their inning, de Kock is having good start for them with 3 boundaries in first over of their inning, fans are looking for good end of this final game of series. Hopefully cricket will be at its best during this big chase of South Africa.

This is the last match of the series. India is leading the series 2-1. If South Africa can win today, the series will be drawn. Otherwise, India will win the series 3-1.

I thought South Africa will win. But India has given a huge target of 232 runs. Tilak verma and hardik pandya have batted very aggressively today. Tilak has played an aggressive innings of 73 runs off 42 balls and Pandya has played an aggressive innings of 63 runs off 25 balls.

South Africa is batting at a big target. And the two openers have made a great start. South Africa have not lost any wickets in 5 overs and have managed to collect 60 runs. De Cock is unbeaten on 42 runs off 22 balls. Hendricks' collection is 10 runs off 9 balls.

South Africa's opening batsman is batting very responsibly against the target of 232 runs given by India. Quinton de Kock is batting very well. Quinton de Kock is unbeaten on 42 runs off 22 balls. If Quinton de Kock can bat responsibly, then maybe he can't win the match against India. The game will be very competitive. The current score of the South African team is 61 runs for 0 wickets in six overs. The game between South Africa and India is going to be competitive. If the South African batsmen are batting the way they are batting. If they can maintain that consistency, then they can win the match against India. However, the chances of South Africa winning the match are very low.

On the last T20 between India and South Africa, Indian win mean they'll win the series while a South African win would turn it into a series draw.
It looked like India was going to give a decent target till the 15th over but Hardik Pandyas innings turned it into a high scoring match with India making 231 in 20 overs.
South Africa came to the chase with aggressive batting and even though Reeza Hendricks is out which has decreased South Africa's run rate, With Quinton de Kock in crease we could expect anything. At least it looks to be a close chase.

The target is very big. And it is difficult to win against a team like India with such a big target. Even then, South Africa's batsmen are very talented. There are several T20 specialist batsmen in the squad. Even though the target is big, South Africa is playing with the aim of winning.
Hendricks failed to play well. He returned to the dressing room after scoring only 13 runs from 12 balls. However, Quinton de Kock is batting very responsibly. He scored 61 runs from 33 balls and remained unbeaten. South Africa's total in 9 overs is 99 runs. South Africa will have to score 133 runs from 66 balls to win. The road to victory is very difficult for South Africa.

In this big chase, Proteas reply was also as par match requirement but Jasprit Bumrah and Varun Chakravarthy are game changers for India, bringing their team back into match, David Miller and George Linde on crease but now match is completely under Indian control because their bowlers giving them breakthrough on right time.

South Africa got good talented youngsters, those are doing good job and having good skills for this format still India is superior and well experienced this giving them good advantage 30 balls remaining and 76 runs to win for South Africa. But, I guess my bet on India going to fetch me decent profits.

Congratulation team India. India won the series 3-1 in the end. One match was abandoned.

If South Africa had won today's match, they could have drawn the series. But due to the incredible batting of the Indian batsmen, India won this match too. India was able to collect a huge 231 runs. This was possible because of the batting of Pandya and Tilak verma. The most important innings was played by Hardik Pandya. He played an innings of 63 runs in 25 balls. He batted at a strike rate of 252.

On the other hand, South Africa started their innings well. But except for openers de Kock and Dewald Brevis, no other batsman could play well. De Kock was able to add 65 and Brevis 31 runs to the scoreboard. Apart from this, no other batsman could collect even 20. South Africa lost by a margin of 30 runs.

[Haunebu]

What's up with Pandya these days? Dude is on a crazy high with the bat probably due to his new girl. Abhishek is cool as usual while Tilak keeps rocking too. Tough to tell who is more consistent between him and Sai in the IPL these days.

MI got an amazing buy by getting De Kock for just 1cr considering the epic form that he is in at the moment. Overall, South Africa takes the test series while India takes the ODI and T20 series.

India finally won their T20 series by defeating South Africa, winning the series 3-1. South Africa team tried hard enough today to try the series but they failed and lost by 30 runs. The target of 231 was set by India team to South Africa and South Africa failed to meet this target. If the batsmen of South Africa team batted well in the beginning but later they got under a lot of pressure due to losing wickets and the run rate decreased. If South Africa could have kept the wickets then they would have had a lot of chances to win against India. But India's bowling performance was very good due to which they put South Africa under pressure and India won their series at the last moment.

South Africa's opening batsman is batting very responsibly against the target of 232 runs given by India. Quinton de Kock is batting very well. Quinton de Kock is unbeaten on 42 runs off 22 balls. If Quinton de Kock can bat responsibly, then maybe he can't win the match against India. The game will be very competitive. The current score of the South African team is 61 runs for 0 wickets in six overs. The game between South Africa and India is going to be competitive. If the South African batsmen are batting the way they are batting. If they can maintain that consistency, then they can win the match against India. However, the chances of South Africa winning the match are very low.

The Indian team taking advantage of batting first gave South Africa a big aim of 231.All the Indian batsmen played with a great strike rate and won the last match as well as the entire series.South Africa had a golden opportunity to equalize the win but due to the big aim they lost the last match.The South African batsmen could not chase their aim.Quinton de Kick showed a great performance from South Africa but the rest of the batsmen looked a little weak.The game was interesting at the beginning but in the end the match went in India favor.The South African team could not finish the match at the speed with which they scored runs in the beginning.Varun Chakaravarthy put a lot of pressure on South Africa with 4 wickets due to which they could not score many runs and Tilak Varma scored the most runs in batting.

Hardik Pandya is a crazy player! When he is in form, such performances are expected from him. I have been following him for a long time, he sometimes plays a role in the team with the bat or with the ball. He has performed brilliantly in this series. On the other hand, Varun Chakraborty has been very consistent, he has taken wickets in every match of the T20 series and has also been good in terms of runs, although he has lost some runs in the last match. He has taken a total of 10 wickets in 4 matches.

South Africa's main strength is currently in red-ball cricket. However, they have tried to do well in white-ball cricket. Their big achievement is Quinton de Kock finding his form. He is promising good things after returning to the team after a long time. Keeping in mind the upcoming T20 World Cup and 2027 ODI World Cup, he has reversed his decision to retire and has returned to white-ball cricket. Although he did not announce his retirement from T20. With his return to the team, South Africa's opening has been somewhat strengthened.

All three series South African tour to India team was completed and only Test series was won South Africa team and other ODI and T20 series was lost South Africa team. Today 5 th T20 series game was played and in start of game, SA team won toss and they got opportunity to choose field and batting first and SA team gave batting to India team. India team set 231 runs big target in 20 overs by losing 5 wickets. Tilak effort in today's game was mind blowing and he made 73 runs in 42 balls and hitted ten 4s and one 6s. Hardik also batted so well with Tilak and he also completed half century 63 runs in 25 balls and hitted five 4s and five 6s. SA team failed to beat India team again in 5 th game and lost game by 30 runs. 4 th game of this series was abandoned and India won series by 3 wins and one lost.

India vs South Africa Final Match

There is exciting match today since India is playing with South Africa in last match of series in Ahmedabad. This game is very important since last game was canceled as result of bad weather conditions, and as India is already leading 2-1, South Africa needs to win game today to tie the series. India will not have Shubman Gill due to a foot injury and so, Sanju Samson is expected to take his place but fans are eager to see captain Suryakumar Yadav play well. India will be able to get trophy or South Africa will fight back on pitch that is mostly good to bat on. So let's wait for the match and see who will win?

Yeah, in the T20 game between India and South Africa, India defeated South Africa by 30 runs. India opens inning first with Sanju Samson and Abeshak Sharma and both the openers give a very positive start to the team and Abeshak played a well inning of 34 runs and also Samson scores 37 runs and in middle order Tilak Verma played a well inning of 73 runs and also Pandya played a very aggressive inning of 63 runs and at the end of the innings India set a huge target of 232 for South Africa.

South Africa opens inning with Quinton de kock and Reeza Handrics and among the openers De Kock played a well inning of 65 runs and Handrics scores only 13 runs and in middle order Dewaid Brevis played a well inning of 31 runs and after that Africa panicked and falls off wickets continue and at the end of the innings South Africa scores only 201 runs and India won the game by 30 runs.

[ZAINmalik75]

In this big chase, Proteas reply was also as par match requirement but Jasprit Bumrah and Varun Chakravarthy are game changers for India, bringing their team back into match, David Miller and George Linde on crease but now match is completely under Indian control because their bowlers giving them breakthrough on right time.

Honestly that's completely unexpected results for me because it's must win match for proteas to get back in series and it was look like they will overcome the way they continue things early on while chase, but unexpected spells from varun and bumrah really tune entire situation for them. Indian were really confident because they were have home ground advantage as well as they were already ahead in term of lead so thier fearless cricket really put Proteas on back foot which results in African really concede such huge runs which they failed to match.

India performance in this match was really impressive. They have shown their hard work by scoring 231 runs in this T20 match. Five of their players got out one or two of them did not perform well, but the rest gave their target in the best way in this match, which enabled them to achieve this target. One of their team player, who is the player of the match, scored 63 runs off 25 balls and also did many other feats in this match. After that, the team that was playing with them is the South African team, which tried its best to win this match but failed. Quinton de Kock, who is the opening batsman in this match, scored 65 runs along with the rest, but his 65 runs are not counted in any account because the players who came later changed the course of this match, due to which they lost this match by thirty runs. The way they started batting, it did not seem at all that they would lose if  They proved everyone wrong.

SKY almost killed the momentum, good on him sacrificing his wicket for a cause.

Pandaya always gets a stick for his antics, rightly so but jeez he's one of the finest hitter in modern cricket, such a clean hitter when on song and ofc full of swag.

Sky's misery still continues but good for Samson who did very good with the chance he got and Tilak is doing just fine hope the team management won't shuffle his position again.

Hardik is trusted candidate but in some matches he plays like he completely forgot about what is batting.

But I can't say anything about De Kock's form, he is just getting better and better and didn't really know how he went for 1cr price tag for MI? Any understanding with other teams from the big bhai...
