Twitter explodes as South Africa choke and crash out of World Cup after losing to Pakistan
It was a depressing day for South Africa as they lost a do or die match to Pakistan and crashed out of the tournament. Even though Faf du Plessis and Quinton de Kock gave a good start for South Africa, the middle order failed to build the innings. Twitterati slammed the current South African team.
Brief scores: Pakistan 308/7 in 50 overs (Haris Sohail 89, Babar Azam 69; Imran Tahir 2-41, Aiden Markram 1-22) beat South Africa 259/9 in 50 overs (Faf du Plessis 63, Quinton de Kock 47; Wahab Riaz 3-46, Shadab Khan 3-50) by 49 runs

We beat them in every Worldcup 😎#CWC19 #PAKvSA #WeHaveWeWill
Big names like ABD missing!
When I look at South Africa's batting, I see an empty space. Say names but nobody has done very well. Where has this all gone wrong? Did they come in thinking they could get it done with their big stack of bowling line up and unfortunately injury played a diff game? #ProteaFire
