South Africa has mental block on knock out matches. They hardly ever won any knock out matches especially in the ICC tournaments. This time it was no exception. Winning the toss New Zealand opted to bat first and never really looked back from there. Centuries by Rachit Ravindra and Kane Williamson drove them to a formidable total of 264. South Africa never really recovered from there. Although there were some late game heroics of Miller had put them past 300. It was never enough. So, now we (Indian supporters) will wait until Sunday for cracking match against New Zealand.

In the IL Master group Mr Man is now unstoppable. He won back to back matches in the knock out and way ahead of others in terms of highest point. So powerful was his performance in the last two matches that even after missing one match he is at 3rd position. He is the man of the moment in our group. He is the first person from the group to cross 1,500 points as well in this tournament. Mr Man put your bet on Indian players in the next match and with your luck we should have nothing to worry about. Awesome game and congratulations for the great win.

The second came the Debutant. Debutant for some reason was not participating in the tournament. This was his way of showing the others, that he definitely had it in him, just that he did not want to participate. He was only one who came somewhat close to Mr Man, however, it was not enough in the end. The IL Master community is asking the Debutant to join us for the tournament finale on Sunday to make it more competitive. Good match today, congratulations. Hope to see you again on Sunday.

The wooden spoon of the match went to Miss Genius. Miss Genius, changed her name in this tournament, however, she did not show much of ingenuity before or afterward. She usually does well in most of the tournament, however, this is probably one of her worst performance. Hard luck and best of luck for the next.
