***Official*** South Africa in New Zealand 2017

Jeetan Patel > tail

 

[straw man]

Neesham deliveries without conceding a boundary: 18

Must be some kind of record

 

[_Ed_]

Again Duminy sucked all of the momentum out of SA's innings.

That's not to say they won't get going again, but IMO he's largely to blame for this flurry of wickets.

What's been tighter today, Santner's bowling or Faf's shirt?

 

[StephenZA]

stupid wicket...

 

[Athlai]

tidy work from Taylor and Patel there. Clean as you like

 

[hendrix]

look how beautifully jeets takes that ball in front of the stumps like that. Simple cricket but it's easy to fumble those.

 

[Mike5181]

Patel looked like he saw Taylor's throw in slow motion. Casual as anything.

got such good hands. Used to be such a good fielder when he was younger too.

Caught out Gilchrist once when he had absolutely blasted it. One of the sharpest takes ever IMO.

nah Hamilton is always a turner.

There was another one earlier this series wasn't there?

 

[Bahnz]

South Africa would have to back themselves with anything over 220 in the bank. Tahir is going to be a nightmare if he can land it on this.

 

[Daemon]

Brutal over this

 

[straw man]

This is all of a sudden not going very well
63/1 off the last five overs

 

[thierry henry]

lol. They're gonna get 100 off the last 7 overs despite starting out 6 down

 

[Bahnz]

Good we miss Milne and Anderson at the death so so much.

 

[Zinzan]

South Africa will bowl well on this. Guptill or the bush for NZ.

 

[straw man]

10, 11, 11, 14, 17, 18 off the last six overs
... and on track for another 15+ here in the final over

Not really Guptill's sorta pitch. We're ****ed.
