India Reeling at 86/5 After 14, As Bosch and Jansen Stun In Super Eight Showdown

India Reeling at 86/5 After 14, As Bosch and Jansen Stun In Super Eight Showdown

South Africa has tightened its grip on the high-stakes 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Super Eight encounter in Ahmedabad, leaving India reeling at 86/5 after 13 overs. 

Chasing a formidable target of 188, the Indian top order crumbled under a relentless Proteas attack, with Corbin Bosch and Marco Jansen dismantling the hosts' early resistance.

The dismissal of captain Suryakumar Yadav for 18, caught off Bosch in the 10th over, marked a tipping point that silenced the Narendra Modi Stadium. 

Earlier, David Miller (63) and Dewald Brevis (45) had staged a remarkable recovery for South Africa, overcoming an initial burst from Jasprit Bumrah (3/15) to power their side to 187/7. 

With the required run rate now soaring past 17 runs per over, the burden of a miracle rescue falls squarely on the shoulders of Hardik Pandya and Shivam Dube. 

India enters the final seven overs needing 102 runs to keep their unbeaten streak alive.
