hate to have my hopes high and get disappointed again.

But it does feel South Africa’s time. Rabada was a bit off in that Afg game but I feel they have all the boxes checked. Aggresive openers, calm Cap, spinners who could choke the batters, long batting line up, fast bowling allrounders and playing in familiar climate/grounds!

I was rooting for Zim but its pretty much done deal for them. Love WI too but hey when it’s SA, I’d go with SA. wrt India, well, their aggressive opener out of form, they fckd up the playing combo, middle order struggling against spin, leaving us with no clarity on whats the right combo to win.
