South Africa needed 30 off 30 balls in a chase of 176 against India but fell short by seven runs despite Heinrich Klaasen’s awe-inspiring 27-ball 52 in the see-saw summit clash here on Saturday.
“It’s not the first game of cricket that’s been lost with a team needing 30 of 30—it’s more that India was allowed to bowl well, they’re allowed to field well, they’re allowed to go from that position to a position of strength. But like I mentioned, just for the time being, it stings a bit, but it’s good for it to sting,” said Markram.
