India vs South Africa: Proteas win by 5 wickets to go top

Suryakumar Yadav played best kck of his short international career but South Africa exposed India’s inadequacies against extreme pace and bounce to win a low-scoring thriller by five wickets in T20 World Cup on Sunday. While Surya’s 68 off 40 balls will easily qualify as one of most accomplished kcks in adverse conditions, India’s defence of a below-par total of 133 runs for loss of nine wickets was always going to be a challenge.
