South Africa didn't choke
South Africa were outplayed by a better team on their day, and didn't choke as the general perception suggests, writes Arthur Turner on the News24 website.
The Proteas lost a closely contested match by seven runs and to term them chokers based on that performance is harsh. Sri Lanka, like South Africa, also only lost one game in the tournament - the final. The performance of the West Indies in the second semi-final looked more like a team choking to me.
