Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan was involved in a terrible mix-up with his brother Yusuf Pathan, which led to Irfan’ dismissal in a World Championship League(WCL) match against South Africa Champions. This happened on the first ball of 19th over after Irfan played a lifted shot. The ball landed between two fielders, while Irfan and Yusuf tried stealing a couple of runs. Though Irfan was insisting to go for a second run, Yusuf initially agreed, but decided to stop after taking a couple of hesitant steps.
This left Irfan in no man’s land as Steyn caught the throw and hit the stumps. Irfan was left angry over the same as he shouted and gave a mouthful to his brother Yusuf.
Though South Africa had already won the match after scoring 210/8, Indian players were fighting to stay in the competition. India needed to score 153 or more to qualify for the semi-finals. India lost by 54 runs, but qualified for semi-finals
The South Africa Champions posted a total of 210/8 in 20 overs, and the bowlers kept India in tight position with India scoring only 156/6 in the given 20 overs. South Africa ended their campaign on a positive note.
Synman, who scored 82 against Pakistan in the previous game, show his batting prowess again and blasted 73 off 43 balls and laid a solid base for his team.
Later, Levi made a 25-ball 60, with 5 sixes and 5 fours. While the Indian bowlers did make a strong comeback in death overs, it was just not enough to prevent the opponents from making a big total..
