India loses to South Africa in the T20 World Cup Super Eight match.

In the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Super Eight match, South Africa put on a dominant display to defeat India by 76 runs, ending India’s incredible winning run in the competition.

India’s batting order fell under pressure as they attempted to reach the difficult mark of 188.

As the Proteas bowlers controlled the action, wickets fell quickly one after the other.

India’s top scorer, Shivam Dube, scored 42 runs, followed by Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav, who each scored 18 runs.

None of the Indian batsmen were able to have a major influence aside from these contributions, and the team was bowled out for 111 in the 19th over.

Marco Jansen, who took four wickets in a pivotal period, led South Africa’s bowling attack.

With aggressive and disciplined bowling, Keshav Maharaj took three wickets and Corbin Bosch added two, destroying India’s formidable batting order.

South Africa chose to bat first after winning the toss earlier in the Ahmedabad match.

They posted a commanding total of 187 for 7 in their allocated 20 overs, demonstrating the effectiveness of the decision.

With a solid 63, David Miller spearheaded the attack and authoritatively anchored the innings.

Tristan Stubbs contributed 44 runs to the Proteas total, while Dewald Brevis contributed 45 runs to provide strong support.

With three wickets, Jasprit Bumrah was India’s most impressive bowler, followed by Arshdeep Singh with two.

After winning 12 straight games, the setback was India’s first in the T20 World Cup.

This defeat was a major blow to the defending champions’ campaign, since they hadn’t lost since the tournament’s 2024 edition.
