Is the "unbeatable" tag gone? India’s Super 8 journey hits a massive speed bump in Ahmedabad as South Africa pulls off a clinical 76-run victory. Taran and Ishaan break down the tactical errors and the "home team" energy the Proteas brought to the black soil pitch.

In this episode, we dive deep into:

• The Partnership: How David Miller and Dewald Brevis absorbed the pressure and took down Varun Chakaravarthy.
• The Finisher: Tristan Stubbs’ explosive cameo against Hardik Pandya.
• The Selection Headache: Why was India’s Vice Captain and local hero Axar Patel left out of the XI?
• The Chase-Master Gap: With India struggling to chase 150+, are they missing the stability of a Virat Kohli-type anchor?
• The "Cupcake" Curse: Did the Star Sports "No Choking" ad provide the ultimate motivation for South Africa?

Bumrah’s Brilliance: We analyze Jasprit’s incredible spell of 3/15 and why it wasn’t enough to save a flat Indian bowling effort.

What’s Next? India is now chasing the eight-ball with a negative net run rate. It’s a must-win situation against Zimbabwe. Can the young guns handle the World Cup pressure?
