We should play India because it would be very satisfying if we beat them and knock them out of the CT. It will shut up the arrogant Indian fanbase throwing insults at us all over Facebook and Twitter, ironically even when Australian fans are congratulating us. We really need to shut them up.

Also, no reserve day for semis. If the game gets washed out, SA/ Ind go through to the finals due to higher NRR.

If SA/Ind gets rained out, and SL/Pak gets played, we will end up playing the winner of that match which works out for us.

Alas some of our own fans are becoming arrogant just as we blame other fans as we become a better team.
Any team we face will be increadibly difficult but no doubt possible if we apply the right tactics and mind set.

I thought India has the best batting line up...it would be very very tough to beat India.
On the other hand, SA might have difficult time to handle our spinners...thus, possibility is higher for us to make an impact...

I'd take whomever. But this is choker tag is mouth watering.
Their bowling is circled around Tahir.
Rabada, Parnell, Morris, Morkel, Duminy all can be neutralized.

Pollster should've added a 3rd option as "doesn't matter."
------------
Alhamdulillah!
Like I said on the other thread, I don't care about the opponents. Whoever they are, show them no mercy, knock them out from the tourney and let us play in the Final inshAllah.

I would prefer Saffers as they are big chokers and as India has played a lot with us knows how to play us better.

I wouldn't underestimate South Africa at any cost(They have to get past India challenge). Bangladesh clearly struggles against Leg spin and Tahir can probably exploit that as easily done by Adil Rashid and Rashid Khan in the not too distant past. Bangladesh was "fizzed" by Rabada in his debut game and he just knocked over England just less than two weeks ago.
Interested to see what kind of pitch the semis has to offer. I am really excited for India vs. South Africa tomorrow.

I dont think Ind will survive the SA challenge. Their bowling attack is too weak!

If we win I will troll everyone of you voted for SA here and if we lose, well, a brief hiatus is always on the cards
Sadly NightWolf da will be super pleased if the latter happens

^If India loses we can rightfully claim you weren't good enough to earn the right to play us in the semis, and then if we go on to beat SA, it's a double whammy
I'm pulling for SA because they're my second fav team, I genuinely like them. I feel bad that they are always stacked with talent and yet perennial chokers. The first world cup I followed was in 1992. If not for weird untested D/L rules at the time, which robbed them a berth in the finals, they would've been favorites to win the cup and their history could've been different. Similar to what could've happened to us if we weren't robbed of the win at Multan.

SA has to bowl first...chasing seems to be the way to go last couple of matches, and India and Kohli are master chasers
