00:00till the last over any outcome is possible and even two two balls from the end people said well
00:05it could still be a super over if they hit two fours on the last two balls it'll be super over
00:10so all of that was going on was quite incredible but it's quite unexpected the way south africans
00:15you know just gave it away on a batter to india i mean uh we're lucky we won this uh uh in 2007
00:22also on a similar note where pakistan gifted us uh that scoop shot from uh the pakistani batter
00:30yesterday also 30 runs from 30 odd balls and and the way south africans gave it away uh your
00:37thoughts on that i don't think you're being fair at all i don't think you're being fair
00:41i think that i think i think the south africans played outstandingly they played a really really
00:46good game people you know make runs by taking away by playing shots and they also get out playing
00:52shots so i mean it so happens that our rollers hold well enough and our fielders caught well
00:58enough come on i don't see anything that we should be ashamed of at all uh it's not that
01:03they gave it away i think they played exceptionally well i think they were right on top of the game
01:08right up to over number 16 uh and it's only after that that it began slipping away from them
01:15and even then right till the very end they were in with a chance i mean it's not that they are
01:20uh there are any slouches i mean except uh possibly for their number 11 shamsi all the
01:26others can wield a long handle i've seen people like rabada and nokia hitting sixes it's not
01:31impossible that they could have won even with a tail batting um so i think i think it was a
01:36very good performance for south africa we should give them full credit i think it's
01:40very unfair to accuse them of choking yet again and so on because um they didn't choke i think
01:46i think they played well we played well and in the crucial overs towards the end of the match
01:52we played better absolutely we did but uh i mean you know that that surya kumar catch you talked
01:58about it's such a regular phenomena when we look at ipl games i i mean we've seen it so many
02:06cricketers from different countries playing it for different franchisee taking such catches
02:11um and ipl has also contributed you know earlier we used to talk about how we used to lose t20
02:16world cup right after ipl uh and everyone used to blame ipl because of over uh dose of cricket
02:23but what what will you tell them right now no i think i think obviously it helped india that
02:29our players were so fresh from the ipl and indeed other players who had played in the ipl like
02:34travis ed also showed the advantages of the ipl because they came into the world cup raring to go
02:41and did very well uh same story these are people who played in the ipl i think that that argument
02:48can now be laid to rest in many ways the ipl is extremely good preparation for a t20 world cup
