In a crushing defeat, skipper Suryakumar Yadav admitted that India's inability to build partnerships was their downfall against South Africa in the T20 World Cup Super Eights. South Africa claimed victory by 76 runs, leaving India struggling with a subpar batting effort and a negative net run rate.
Despite commendable bowling efforts from Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh, India could not chase down the 188-run target, bowing out for just 111 in 18.5 overs. This loss necessitates wins against Zimbabwe and West Indies to salvage their World Cup aspirations.
South Africa's skipper Aiden Markram credited quick adaptation to ground conditions as the key factor in their victory. David Miller's strategic middle-order innings, supported by Dewald Brevis and late flurry by Tristan Stubbs, cemented South Africa's lead, frustrating India's spin attack with targeted aggression.
