Bring it on. Who loses here will win the final
No, whoever wins will get to play final - because they will have easier opposition in SF.. it's 1 vs 4

I don’t know if it easier looks like nz will sneak in 4th think they’ve been around the same form as Australia. They’ve shown they are great at semis as well

But, here's the thing, semi-finals are unpredictable...No 2 bites at the cherry.

SA have officially qualified for the SF so there is little pressure on either team to win. Will be interesting if either team decides to rest anyone or try some different combos out.

Now there’s a statement I never thought I’d hear. The inverse, sure.

I wouldn’t do it, I don’t see the point in testing out players and giving others a go now. Even if it may be a bit of a dead rubber. Most teams know their starting 11 now, I’d try get their players into the best form. And also try to deal a big blow to the other team and maybe get a psychological advantage heading into the semis

Ind to win tomorrow. If Ind bat first and atleast one of Rohit and Gill get out before the 20th over, I’d back Kohli to get the 49th.

I am actually kinda wanting India to loose a match...... As I am feeling else they would flop in the knock outs

Look at those wicket takers….not in the team lol
Spot on!Winner of this match will avoid Australia in semi-final
I know right! I never thought I would say this statement of Indian bowling > batting.
True!
I don't think losing will necessarily help them in knockouts.
Right around the knockouts, you don't want to lose momentum.
See what happened to NZ, they were unbeaten two Sundays ago and after one loss against India, they seem to have lost all the momentum.
If India bat first, SA will be in for a real test against Indian pacers under lights.
If SA bat first, India will be challenged.

If india win toss, they should consider putting SA in to test their bowling against SA in preparation for the knockout phases.
