Semi-Final #2- New Zealand v South Africa- Wednesday, March 5th- Lahore

[RossTaylorsBox]

Yeah it's the left right combo thing

 

[Athlai]

South Africa famously good chasers in finals

 

[Athlai]

Thanks for showing up Tom

 

[Stefan9]

Kg bowls Latham

 

[SeamUp]

Yeah, 10 overs is a lot of time. Also had to build a partnership with 1 newish batsmen.

Oh well, it's over anyway.

 

[SeamUp]

A good finish to this innings for us would be nice for momentum into our innings.

 

[King Kane]

So much for the left hand right hand combo.

At least Latham didn't waste too many balls,

Over to you Phillips.

 

[Athlai]

Kane's 4th ICC tournament hundred, joining such ODI legends as AB, Jayasuriya, Mark Waugh, Upul Tharanga and Mahmudullah

Latham agreed with the comments here and decided to get GP in.

 

[Athlai]

Sometimes a pinch hitter just wants to get 4 singles

 

[SeamUp]

Mitchell has hit a couple of balls that he should have left for wides.

Rabada has turned this game on its head. It was looking like new Zealand might post 350+. The momentum changed when Ravindra was taken out and with Rabada now taking Latham it's looking like New Zealand at best might scrape to 300.

I do fancy South Africa if NZ only post around 300. The likes of Rickelton, Markham and Klaasen have too much firepower on a pitch like this. NZ will be relying on wicket taking because this is a batter's surface. Who agrees?

 

[Moss]

Nice little comeback from SA till then, they hadn’t given anything in the slot for Phillips/Mitchell up to that ball.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

it's looking like New Zealand at best might scrape to 300.

This might be famous last words but these two, Bracewell, and Santner should score at about 10 runs per over.

Who agrees?

No-one.

 

[Athlai]

If SA keep NZ to 300 I'll be very surprised.

320 would be a good from SA

 

[Neil Young]

320 would be a good from SA

All time choke if we only get 300 from here.

He's been the best of South Africa's bowlers, Ngidi as been pretty good too, Jansen and Maharaj have been the weak kinks in their bowling line up.

 

[SeamUp]

2nd catch down.

 

[King Kane]

Mitchell is getting going now, got lucky with that hit out to Mulder though.
