Super 12 - Group 1

[nzfan]

I thought looking at Bavuma's two lovely drives we're in for as big score and now we're in the 6th over and Saffies are 23/3 That was a bizarre dismissal of Quinton

 

[morgieb]

2/1 off 2 overs and that single was an edge. Nuts.

Only in sport can you compliment someone by calling them an individual and owning themselves

 

[nzfan]

Very very casual shot though from Quinton. Hazelwood bowling test match lengths and getting away

Is my boi Watto’s commentary going to consist entirely of talking about intent

Starc looks so medium fast today

that era of australian players were all-in on the intent meme. clarke is the same, hussey too.

What's the punishment if you step outside your concentration camp?

I don't know if there is anyone I'd least like walking out in a tough scenario for SA than Pretorious.

a south africa at a world cup special, this one

Klaasen is really not needed here IMO. Would have played Muller ahead of him and maybe one more bat ahead of Pretorious too. Only Miller and Markram seem to be ready for the challenge. QdK not hitting form sucks.

zampa looks like a ****ing country methhead from the bush wtf

 

[Nintendo]

Im really not a fan of this lineup, playing 3 frontline Pacers and 1 spinner in the subcontinent, a keeper at 7 and stuffing Smith down at 5 for no reason is just weird to me, but it's clearly working, so props to the coaching team, would love to be proven wrong about this and Wade.

SA ICC trophy formula being followed so far:

Top order collapse-Check
Comical dismissal-Check
Run out-Check
One Batsman doing okay-Check

It's not quite following the formula as they're doing it in their first match rather than a knock out, which is usually the case.

and maybe one more bat ahead of Pretorious too.

The only other batsman in the squad is Hendricks, who isn't really an option to replace Pretorius.

 

[BoyBrumby]

What's the thinking behind no Faf?

Can see he's a bit long in the tooth, but he IPL'd well.

 

[Dendarii]

Faf no longer has a national contract and they weren't able to come to an arrangement as to how to handle him being a free agent but still playing for South Africa.

It cant be that difficult given how many uncontracted players play for other sides around the world.
