Will Chennai see another memorable game?

 

[ataraxia]

I'm confused – how are both teams going to lose this one?

One team will choke on the field and the other team will have an over-rate so terrible that the ICC deducts their two points.

@Burgey

What a nightmare for these unfortunate players. Just when the tourney is getting to the business end, they have to divert through that joint

This match will decide if the rest of the matches in this world cup are going to be relevant or not.

All upcoming matches will be dead rubbers if SA win this one.

 

[smash84]

I have a feeling that Pakistan will win this tomorrow and **** all over SA's parade and give false hopes to the fans.

Of course they will then go and get beaten by NZ and Eng

smash do you ever enjoy Pakistan cricket

Lol, good question. I used to enjoy it back in the 80s and some part of the 90s. Since the 00s it's been so much heartbreak

 

[HouHsiaoHsien]

If Pak manage to get Klaasen and QDK cheaply, it might be the first close contest of the tourney. Otherwise, SA to crushingly win

 

[Sunil1z]

Win-Win situation for India

1. If SA wins, Pak is eliminated
2. If Pak wins, India are 90% certain to top the group and many group matches would still be interesting.

 

[danzydab]

will be interesting to see how the pitch goes.
pak need to get qdk and markram out early, they are south africa's main batsmen.

besides the game vs australia, south africa still hasnt been tested on more bowling friendly surfaces.

pakistan's bowling attack looks woeful tho with hasan ali gone

 

[centurymaker]

Pak have won a crucial toss vs SA.

Pak have won a crucial toss vs SA.

Need to bat sensibly and see if the SA death bowling falls apart again. If they've got wickets left at the end, could be key.

 

[mackembhoy]

If SA wins, Pak is eliminated

Interesting that Pakistan losing this game sees them lose their 3 remaining games.

Well they won’t reach SF if they lose this match

Back spasm according to crapinfo.

 

[trundler]

Today is the day SA exorcise their chasing demons.
