Choke De! South Africa?

Indian fans might not have the opportunity to chant their favorite catchphrase any longer in the second ever World T20 Cup.

The news cloud online seems to be full of suggestions that they could have a similar-sounding one for South Africa, if their previous performances in World Cups, indeed in any major ICC tournaments for that matter, are anything to go by.

And that was when they were NOT expected to win those tournaments anyway.

This time around, they actually have been the favorites from day -4.

The last time they went into something having been expected to come out winners on the other side thereof, they lost a test series to Australia.

Some Aussies would like to firmly believe so, especially since the Australian team was unceremoniously sent off from the tournament. Others are pretty sure that will happen.

But, looking from within South Africa, it seems like the chokers tag might be turned right on its own head in what is a factually well backed up take.
