[Burgey]

Apologies, just saw the first wicket then.

Still a 50/50 game

 

[Pratters]

Nah. I will say SA still favorites. Got 80 on the board.

Even Gambhir wouldn't call it 50/50 game. Probably 93:7ish to SA.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Lol ive seen us play enough to say it is a 50/50 game. Id feel much more comfortable if we grt through the next spell from mitch who can easily get 3 wickets. So yes anything can still happen.

 

[Pratters]

ODI cricket is far better on bigger grounds. At least negates the tilt towards the batsmen some what.

Have always preferred bowler friendly wickets to batsmen friendly wickets too. Makes cricket a contest.

"anything can still happen" and "50/50 game" are not the same thing.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Now it is more closer to 80/20

 

[Jono]

South Africa are paying $1.01 on Betfair.


50/50 game though.

 

[Jono]

Now it is more closer to 80/20

Come on. Its 98-2 at best.

50/50 is the definition of it could go either way...anything can happen

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Come on. Its 98-2 at best.

Ab doing well so far. Id guess 90/10

 

[Pratters]

50/50 is the definition of it could go either way...anything can happen

No. That would be 'equal chance of going either way'.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

No. That would be 'equal chance of going either way'.

Well anything can happen does not include a whale belly flopping otnto the field.

What other parameters do you have for anything could happen on a cricket field while the only realistic options are rain, team a winning or team b winning? Or other rare factors such a streaker or the umpires calling off the match for a dangerous pitch?

Anything can happen can ONLY mean either team a wins it or team b wins it in thr context of the initial post.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Since thrn AB has been skiing on a downhill slope to 38 from 22 balls

 

[Pratters]

Game can go either way even when a team is 120/5 needing

A) 160 runs
B) 260 runs

In option A batting team has a better chance though.

 

[Spikey]
