I think today something was wrong with the batting order. Dhoni is experimenting with the batting order in each and every game of this world cup. This is fatal. Powerplay taken at 39th over was also wrong. It should have been last 5 overs. Kohli is not comfortable except at postion no.3.Pathan should have been brought later on. Indian fielding is also poor. In next game I think Raina should be given a chance instead of Gambhir.
The way the tournament is shaping up, looks like S. Africa will win the Cup. They do deserve to win, for being an excellent fielding and bowling side and a reasonably good batting side. After the debacle against England in Chennai, the way they have bounced back in the last over against BCCI team, when they needed to score 13 runs, is a pointer.

No, India will not win the world cup. They are already struggling with menows like Netherlands and Ireland. Wait until they meet Aussies, SA, Srilanka and yes even Pakistan. Their bowling is at it's worst that I have seen in the recent times. Batting is still the same and just like a pack of cards it falls when 1 or 2 wickets go down in quick succession. Once Veeru and Tendu are gone, you can pretty much wind up the innings.
Yes, pressure is there. But then pressure is a part of these big tournaments. Also, I think as long as India rely upon only one sport, i.e. Cricket, there will always have an immense pressure. I highly doubt Aussies have that highly inflated pressure level as they play more than one international sport with excellence. So the pressure is less on the countries with more than one national and popular sports.
I reiterate, India will NOT win this world cup. My bets are on South Africa and Australia.

I could never understand, how difficult is it to stick to the basics and just keep taking singles by trying to keep the wickets intact? Is it so much to ask from our peck of cards batsmen? No need for any boundaries as the job is already taken care of by the openers to some extent. But hey! Who cares, as I am earning a handsome amount at the end of the match - win or loss.

BTW, irrespective of who won the match, it was truly an entertaining one. Both teams have been chokers in the past and that made the battle very interesting even in the last over.
It is easy to be an armchair critic watching the match on TV with so much information available in front of you. Put yourself in the Greame Smith or Dhoni's shoes in the middle of those 22 yards with 50,000 spectators, over a billion viewers and 100s of administrators aiming for your head - on top of all the tension of the moment and then take it to the wire - with none of them giving up fight - absolutely engrossing match indeed.
Nehra has been a genuine slog overs bowlers and most of the boundaries scored in his bowling were edges past the stumps/WC - except the six in his last over which could have been luck favoring the batsman.
What I liked was that the Indian fielding was much better than their previous matches (not as great as SA or Ireland) and hope they keep giving their best irrespective of the results.
This match also affirmed my belief that India loses most of the matches when Sachin scores a century.. and usually wins when Shewag scores a ton.
Lets enjoy the game without being Patriotic - it is a game, not war.
