Darren Sammy is worthy of a mention too.

Not Terrible
I must admit I was VERY impressed with him in the test series, I felt he has a lot of good cricket ahead of him.

I think the program kicks off at 4.30, so the start should be at 5.
Should be a good game tonight, West Indies look a strong 20/20 outfit and South Africa’s off the field dramas, compounded today by the resignation of Ashwell Prince from SACA (and the aftermath of the leaked memo), will either unite the side or have a real detrimental effect on their performance. Mickey Arthur has said that the former is the case but still conceded that the problems in South African cricket are vast and rather serious.
An upset isn’t as signposted as Argentina and France was last Friday but I really wouldn‘t write the West Indies off like my bookmarkers have. Toss should be crucial as well tonight, as the captains throughout the tournament will most likely favour bowling first.

If Edwards plays alongside Rampaul and Powell, I’m not sure how the West Indies would be able to accommodate Sammy. They were not able to do it in the summer when their toured England and only could do it in Ireland by resting Dwayne Bravo. Dropping Dwayne Smith would be the only logical option, which probably won’t happen, for Smith’s fielding and hitting ability makes him a 'good' selection.

Well, it looks like the Windies to me
Gayle hit's the first of many sixes in this tournament, hopefully.

Yea they should have dropped Dwayne Smith in my opinion, but anyway just as well for SA that Devon Smith is scratching around.

'Sokay, mistakes happen
Great start to this tournament so far, Chris Gayle may have found his ideal game.

What is a par score in 20/20 usually? 160-180?

Gayle 50. Entertaining knock.

That's often a winning score, but at The Wanderers, I think 200+, may well be needed.
Gayle makes 50, good knock

about 180 is usually good score in English domestic T20.

With the South Africans history of chasing on this pitch I wouldn't feel safe unless I got 260+!
Sorry, but the scars will never go away.
