Pakistan helped defeat India; Frankly, the man of the match was Lungi Ngidi
South Africa dealt a severe blow to India, which entered the ICC T-20 World Cup with the hope of winning the third straight game and entering the semifinals. The Proteas celebrated a genuine five wicket win.
The South African pacers have made full use of the Perth camp which has helped the pacers. Pacer stars Lungi Ngidi and Wayne Parnell literally took India down.
Wayne Parnell, who took three wickets for 15 runs in four overs, and Lungi Ngidi, who took four wickets for 29 runs in four overs, were crucial to South Africa’s victory.
Ngidi, who pitched India’s best hitters, is the best on the pitch. KL Ngidi returned Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Hardik Pandya.
Lungi Ngidi says it was Pakistan that helped him take the Indian wickets and he devised strategies by observing Pakistani bowlers.
“As a bowler it’s not easy at all. This is one of the biggest victories of my career. We saw what Pakistan did here. This is what helped me the most. Markram led the game with the bat. Miller. He followed him and we won, ‘says Ngidi.
Before the India-South Africa match, the Pakistan-Netherlands match took place in the same stadium. In the match, Pakistan defeated the Netherlands by nine wickets for 91 runs. Then they slowly chased after him and won their first World Cup victory.
At the start of the India-South Africa match, Indian captain Rohit Sharma, who won the draw, chose to beat. But Rohit’s decision was wrong. India was reduced to five for 49 with wickets falling in the same Powerplay.
It was Suryakumar’s individual performance that brought India to a manageable score.
In response, the Proteas, who beat heavily, won thanks to the half-century of David Miller and Aiden Markram.
After the win against India, South Africa also took the lead in Group 2. Proteas have eight points in three games without losing a single game. India is second with six points and two third wins.
