Ngidi issued the perfect response to back-to-back boundaries and removed Virat Kohli who was caught excellently by Kagiso Rabada at fine leg. Rohit's risk to re-introduce Ashwin seemed detrimental when Miller hit back-to-back sixes, but he removed Tristan Stubbs to give India hope. The South African seamers were outstanding and were backed up in the field to restrict the Indian batters, the highlights being Lungi Nigdi with 4 for 29 and 3 for 15 from Wayne Parnell.

South Africa needed six from six balls at the start of the 20th over but a dot and a Wayne Parnell single were followed by Miller gloving a short ball down the leg-side for four before chopping the next over cover. Markram holed out in the 16th over with South Africa needing a further 34 runs from 27 balls to top India's 133-9, with his dismissal ending a fourth-wicket stand of 76 from 60 balls with Miller (59no off 46) after the Proteas had been 24-3 in the sixth over.

South Africa beat India by five wickets at the Optus Stadium in Perth to rise on top of Group 2 with five points. In a closely contested match, India put up ...

Shami added to India’s account of wickets early on as he picked the Proteas skipper Temba Bavuma. In his final over though, with just six to defend, Miller gloved one and touched another with his bat to get two boundaries and finish the game. The off spinner had trapped Markram in playing one straight to Virat Kohli at deep midwicket, but the 33-year-old couldn’t complete a regulation take. Despite wickets falling at the other end, the 32-year-old kept his nerve and guided India to a 127 before being picked by Wayne Parnell. However, he too fell for Lungi Ngidi’s short ball, trying to pull but catching a thick edge that carried to the boundary at long leg. South Africa in reply, chased down the total with two balls to spare and five wickets in hand.

India vs South Africa, T20 World Cup: Men in Blue didn't do much ... (Firstpost)

South Africa pacers unleashed the most concentrated attack on the Indian top order, and the better team won this match-deciding contest.

It was two vital misses in the field that undid most of the good work. As aforementioned, the early spring start to the tournament in Australia is proving to be quite tricky. The Proteas unleashed a most concentrated attack on the Indian top order, and the better team won this match-deciding contest. The ball was delivered at mega speed, and it went over the fine leg fence at the same speed. It was a tad too short, and Rohit being the compulsive puller, went for it. He has more experience with Australian conditions, has a more attacking approach, and if Hooda wasn’t going to bowl, then what sense did it make keeping Pant on the bench? In fact, the games in Sydney are the only ones that exhibited this quality. Quite simply, the conditions in Perth replicated much of those on the previous Sunday at the MCG against Pakistan. But he still did visit the ground to take a look at the pitch.
