Only 4 teams have lost by more than 300 runs so far. South Africa, Netherlands, Sri Lanka and USA. Sri Lanka has lost by 200+ runs twice. And both times they lost against India. But yesterday South Africa broke all records. They lost by a huge margin of 342 runs. And I don't think any other team will be able to break this shameful record.
In the second match too, we saw South Africa score a big 330. South Africa's batsmen batted brilliantly. They had no chance of winning today's match against a target of 415 runs. However, the batsmen should have tried to reduce the loss. They should have tried to score at least 200 runs. But at the same time, Africa's innings stopped at just 72 runs. They couldn't even score 100.
Limited overs cricket is such an unpredictable sport. South Africa won with massive margins in the first two matches, only to be humiliated by the Poms in the last match. When the England batsmen are in form, they are the best in the world. At present there is no competition to Joe Root, Jacob Bethell, Jos Buttler and Ben Duckett, either in India or Australia. Neither the spinners, nor the pacers were able to contain them, as Nandre Burger and Codi Yusuf went for more than 8 runs per over.
