How did India lose that

Fluffed it, had it in the bag.
Middle overs put pressure on the last 10. Should have won this with ease

India lost the game between 30 and 40 over

With new rules in, odi is no longer like t20s. I'm not one bit surprised that both teams really have struggled scoring 300s this series's and more importantly it hasn't been easy to chase 250+ that easily.
Teams need to leave those old tactics of leaving the last 15 overs of full slog as its not going to happen anymore. Also India need to sort their batting line up. One day they say kohli will bat at 4 then the next day he comes in at 3 and all that crap. They seem to be confused about their roles in the team

Dhoni is lousy n useless captain. His tactics baffle me and he messing up the batting order too much. He can't hit as he used to and raina needs a break big time. Time to blood some youngsters instead of raina's type and axar as he can't even hold a bat. Ashwin is big loss though but we need to put our best eleven whatever we have.... Can't see that happening until we have Dhobi as captain.

I get the sense that Dhoni overrates his own batting and underrates Rahane's worth. Kolhi and Dhoni struggled to push the run rate and left too much for the lower order. It wasn't fair to Rahane and Riana.

@Couscous.. I agree with most of ur comment bro but bloody Raina needs a strong kick up his backside. He needs to go and time to give some youngster a chance who rightfully deserves. No more Dhobi's biased support for certain players.

Raina needs to learn how to play the short ball, every team knows he can't and is a walking wicket.
For once, I couldn't fault the bowlers, the pitch was a batting surface and they restricted South Afirca to a score we should have chased with ease.

Time to move on from Raina's type cos they never will be comfortable against short type bowling all their lives. Ur right that we can't fault much our bowlers this time.
