Stapel

International Regular
75 against weaker attacks. Reckon these 2 teams are some of the best at containment so I went for 65.

Hard to get excited about this match until the second team starts to bat IMO.
My gut feeling tells me this is a good total..... But I really can't say why.

78 from 7. Sigh. I Miss the old days where 17 or 18 would be a solid start from 7 overs.

Reckon SA are on top so I was probably wrong saying 65 was a par score.

International Debutant
As far as T20s go, he's good BB. Not bad as an ODI no6 either. Keep him away from the Test team though.

Any time a team has to chase over 11 runs per over, you know its a decent total!

I'm gonna count the dot balls, SA had 5, plus the 4 wickets, so SL can't afford much more.

Who is this commentating? Is it Arnold? Steyn goes past the outside edge three or four times and his only comments are
"Ball just holding up a little on this wicket" and
"Sri Lankan batsman early on their shots" :dry:

Yeah. Him and Greig are the comm team in the eighth circle of hell.

Tahnny doing his usual Nein thing of calling a shot great before actually looking where it's headed.

Saffers seem to have fielders literally everywhere the ball is hit today - doing something right.

That 4 one of the first to find the gap.

Edit: apologies to language-Nazis for using literally in a non-literal sense :sleep:
