Looking at todays game how SA won was absolutely brilliant. 7 from 6 balls and NZ had wickets in hand. Although I feel morkel bowled bad in 19 over. Steyn was absolutely brilliant.

Every loss is not choke ' date=' they also used to win matches earlier.It is knock out where they have to shed this tag[/quote'] had they lost this game they cant make to next round. so it is knockout wasnt it ?

This match shows why you don't need all hitters in your lineup. Corey Anderson and luke ronchi messed up they could have given the strike to ross taylor.

Actually it is more of NZ gaining choker tag lol SA was in no position to win today. Choke is losing from winning positions not the other way around.
exactly! we use choking too liberally nowadays... Initially choking meant.. being heavy favorites, being in a winning position in a knock out match and then collapsing... Now any defeat is called choking
