#4 India vs South Africa, Johannesburg 2010
It was South Africa’s match to lose and they made a mess of an easy chase, tripped, stumbled and failed.
Batting first, India were bundled out for 190 well before their 50 overs and were on the mat.
South Africa were cruising along and they were within touching distance of the target when they froze and slipped away.
From being 152 for 4, they were knocked over for 189 in an unbelievable collapse. Munaf Patel was the wrecker-in-chief for the visitors as he picked up four wickets.
This is what Dhoni said at the end of the match, "It's a big win for us. We were short of 40-45 runs. We got slow but a good start. Yuvraj got out just before we were about to take the powerplay. Then we had to postpone it. Then when we took it, Raina fell on the first ball. Harbhajan's role was crucial. When Bhaji came they decided not to take him on and lost a bit of momentum. Munaf has been bowling well for us in the last 10-20 games he has played. The part-timers also have bowled well. Yuvraj is our main batsman at no 4. He can dictate terms. Once he crosses 10-15 runs, you can see that he bats fantastically. Two gone, three more to go; we are expecting some tough cricket."
