South Africa records a thumping win over Australia In a second warm up match of 2011 world cup played at Chinnaswami stadium Bangalore. South Africa dominated with both bat and ball. First with the ball they restricted Australia to 217 all out in 47.1 overs and then scored the required runs loosing only 1 wicket although the scorecard reads 218 for three as both skipper Smith and Amla retired to give other batsman batting practice. With such a convincing win the moral of South African team must be very high and made a strong claim for world cup trophy. What do you feel could it be India South Africa final this time?

I dont think there is anything exciting to win a match in a warm up game.Real games are the ones that tests the quality of a team.I feel like australia are better when it comes to handling pressure in do or die matches.South africa is also a good team but we shouldnt care much about these warm up matches because these matches are just for testing the quality of newbie players and experienced players use it as a batting practice.
