Wide. 9 from 2. What a clown.

Out. 9 from 1

Blown it. India win by 7 runs. SA remain the biggest bottlers in world cricket.

Fair play to India, that was one hell of a close-out.

22-4 from the last 5 overs.

After over 15, SA were 90% on the win probability score and absolutely cruising, and India just strangled the life out of them.

The ICC got the result they wanted.

The ICC got the result they effectively fixed

Adjusted for accuracy

This is all a bit disappointing. 26 needed off 4 overs, Klassen falls for Pant's "injury" break and loses his concentration. Smart if slightly grubby from the Indian captain. But as for the rest of it, they deserved it

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

The best two teams made the final and on balance the best team just sneaked the win. I’m not a huge fan of the bish bash bosh cricket but it was a good final

Oh my, that may be the catch of the year.

It IS!! Brilliant. Saffers need 16 from 5. Miller OUT!!

It was... but it wasn't, alas.

I watched the game faux live and did a number of rewinds. The base of the rope is slightly disturbed during his controlling of the catch. You have to be looking for it, but it is definitely ruffed for a split moment.

But it means not out. And six.
