At first , the south Africans gave away too many free runs and the Indians really capitalized on it.. Not only they gave away too many extras.. But also bowled bad balls.. gave away free hit.. and it really helped the Indians a lot..
But Dayl Stain in his second spell was really super.. He took the game away at that moment from India..

I think India played poorly in the last 10 overs of the game. I think they played without any gameplan, just going for random shots. A little bit of cool thinking would have taken India past the 320 mark and India would definitely have won the match. Dale Steyn was definitely good, but he was helped by poor decision making by Indian batsmen.

The fact that S.A. managed to keep India down to under 300 was areal boost. I thought India was going to get 320, 330 at one point in their innings.
I also thought that India was going to win it until the last over, I could not see S.A, winning, but they did and thats the beauty of cricket. One good/bad over and the pendulem swings in favour of the other team.
Beating India is a massive scalp and it's something that S.A. can gain confidence off and build from it.
This might be the result that kick starts their world cup and they could go on tom win it.
