Clueless with anything that moves off the straight.

36 from 23 is well doable still tho.

Rashid didn't even stretch his arm out there, let alone dive. Don't know why it took two minutes to call a run out where the keeper dropped the ball and the batsman was well in anyway.

More comedy fielding.

Been village from both sides.

Although it does stop Miller from coming back in...tactical drop?

Fair play to Miller. Eye/cheekbone must be killing him.

Not suffering tho, but. 4, 6, ?

EDIT: ? = another 4!

Miller, wafg.

Making the SA selectors look a bit daft.

Haha Miller. Perfect time to come back in with the spinner on, but fair play to take him apart like that after his injury.

Rashid's played a fine hand though tbf. Admittedly only really after those two fours.

Hmm wonder if Rashid will still do his step to off and waft...

Nope sensible stuff. Don't know where all the fielders were mind.

Fair play to the French. Did it at a canter in the end.

Plenty of scope for improvement too, especially in the field.

Good win considering how weak we are and how strong we could be if players were fit/available. Be nice to get into the group stages and then beat one of the Indian sides.
