Runs galore.

Hopefully India can knock SA over.Boy,will the choke be on breaking point in SA's next two tricky games against Ireland and Bangladesh or what.

That one run loss was epic but I feel the luck might have been used up then. Should be an awesome game, albeit pretty meaningless since India already have enough points to qualify and SA will qualify without a problem either.

I don't think it's meaningless. Both teams will be fighting for top spot for two reasons:

1) Face a potentially weaker opponent in the quarters.
2) In the event that a KO game is rained out, the team with more points will advance, IIRC.

Oh didn't know about the rain rule...........

India should win this easily after SA showed what they are capable of against England.

Easily? That lose does not mean they are gonna play the same way next game too. And England struggled to beat them. Nothing is easy against SA. India will have to play out of their skins to beat them.

we'll see about that......India in SA almost managed to snatch the series with many of their key players missing. I don't see them faltering too much at home

Without doubt our biggest test so far this match will tell us who gets top spot.

South Africa have shown themselves to crumble when the pressure is on as they did in their last match against England, but they are a quality side and I fully expect them to hard at us.

If we execute our skills and play to our potential then we will win, but I am expecting a very stern test, we saw earlier this year that if we are not at our best against them we will come unstuck.
