Australia channel Kali’s power to beat South Africa in Cricket World Cup

Al Jazeera  

The battle was between two strong contenders with South Africa playing in four World Cups and Australia lifting the trophy five times. South Africa have played in four World Cup knockouts without clearing the final hurdle; Australia have lifted the trophy five times, more than any other nation. Australia weren’t sweating, they were oozing alpha pheromones, while South Africa’s batters appeared to retreat into shells made of glass; all squirts, edges and defensive prods in an effort to stave off calamity. Eden Gardens was South Africa’s paradise lost; Kolkata, Australia’s city of joy.
