T20 WC: Indias 76-run Defeat To South Africa Complicates Their Path To Semi-finals
T20 World Cup: South Africa handing India a 76-run defeat in their Super Eights clash in 2026 Mens T20 World Cup at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday snapped the defending champions' 12-match winning streak in the mega event and plunged their semifinal aspirations into serious doubt. In a rematch of the 2024 T20 World Cup final, the Proteas recovered from early adversity to post 187/7 before dismissing India for just 111 in 18.5 overs. South Africa's innings appeared to be unravelling when Jasprit Bumrah produced a ferocious opening spell of 2-7 in his first two overs, and reduced the Proteas to 20/3. Though Bumrah finished with 3-15, and surpassed Ravichandran Ashwin to become India's all-time leading wicket-taker at T20 World Cups with 33 scalps, David Miller (63) and Dewald Brevis (45) took the game away from India with a breathtaking 97-run partnership off just 51 balls. Tristan Stubbs then hammered an unbeaten 44 off 24 balls to carry South Africa to 187/7. India's first run chase in this World Cup began disastrously and never recovered as at the end of the powerplay, they were in tatters at 31/3. Shivam Dube top-scored with 42 but received little support from the middle order, as South Africa's pace attack was relentless, led by Marco Jansens 4-22, varied their lengths and speeds well to annihilate Indias batting line-up. The heavy defeat leaves India's path to the semifinals considerably more complicated. The Suryakumar Yadav-led side must now win both of their remaining Super Eights matches to guarantee a place in the final four - against Zimbabwe in Chennai on February 26 and West Indies in Kolkata on March 1. India's first run chase in this World Cup began disastrously and never recovered as at the end of the powerplay, they were in tatters at 31/3. Shivam Dube top-scored with 42 but received little support from the middle order, as South Africa's pace attack was relentless, led by Marco Jansens 4-22, varied their lengths and speeds well to annihilate Indias batting line-up. Also Read: Live Cricket Score A similar situation unfolded for India in 2012 T20 World Cup in Sri Lanka, where a nine-wicket loss to Australia pushed their net run rate into negative and despite two wins, they never recovered enough to get into semi-finals. For India, a tournament that once seemed destined to end in glory on home soil has suddenly taken a dramatically uncertain turn after being totally outplayed by the Proteas. Article Source: IANS

T20 World Cup 2026: New Zealand Must Adapt Quickly To Sri Lanka Wickets: Mark Chapman
New Zealand can adapt quickly to switching to Sri Lankan pitches in the T20 World Cup after playing all their matches so far in India, said batsman Mark Chapman on Friday. New Zealand open their Super Eight campaign against Pakistan in Colombo on Saturday, ahead of matches against Sri Lanka and England at the same venue. Pace, bounce and spin in Colombo will be markedly different to Chennai and Ahmedabad, where New Zealand played their group matches, but Chapman said the players knew all about the variation in pitch conditions. I think guys understand what they need to do on slower wickets after playing in India where pitches were batting friendly, said the middle-order batsman. So, we're pretty confident that we'll face up to whatever conditions are in front of us. A lot of the guys have played a lot of cricket here before. Pakistan have played all their four matches in Sri Lanka and have a potent spin attack. Chapman was confident New Zealand can handle Pakistan's spinners, including the unorthodox Usman Tariq, who pauses in his delivery stride and bowls with deceptive variation, including side-arm. Obviously, Tariq has a pretty unique action with the way that he stops at the crease and that's something to factor in, said Chapman. But each of the Pakistan spinners poses their own threat. Pakistan have beaten New Zealand in five of their seven previous T20 World Cup encounters. Captain Mitchell Santner is set to return after missing the game against Canada with a stomach upset. He's pretty excited to get back to the park, said Chapman. And, you know, barring any last-minute sickness, I think he'll be there. Pace bowler Lockie Ferguson will only land back in Sri Lanka on Friday night after returning home for the birth of his first child. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Ferguson missed the win against Canada on Tuesday and is not certain to play against Pakistan after his long-round trip.
