Super Eight

[KiWiNiNjA]

Wouldn't you rather see him go first ball?

Hmmmm, yeah, now i think of it......

 

[meatspx]

Vetorri nearly going at 5 an over!
Patel just over 2.

I think Fleming should save Vetorri for the next partnership, he's no challenge for SA atm.

 

[simmy]

I have no idea what the SA batsmen are doing here. They have no urgency whatsoever and there are only 16 overs left!

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

RSA have a lot of wickets in hand here. 100 of the last 10 or so is very possible.

I highly doubt it. New Zealand aren't West Indies.

Gibbs inside edge onto the stumps, hard luck because it was a great knock by Hershelle, he really kept his team in the hunt. McMillan provides the vital breakthrough and now we have some lower order hitters coming in, the game could swing one way or the other quite dramatically in this last few overs.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Macca you little beauty. Cost 6 off the over but he got Gibbs.

Great Stuff.

Now bring back Bondy to face Boucher.

 

[pup11]

Gibbs gone, what a tame end to his innings.

 

[Perm]

Bring back Bond for two overs now and then leave two for the death. Him and Patel should be able to bowl the last 4 overs at the end and we just have to keep the other bowlers tight. I wouldn't mind seeing Franklin coming back now to finish off either, before the going gets too tough.

 

[pup11]

Macca is not little mate, EDIT: Boucher comes in and hits a 4 (boundaries have been so rare in this innings).

Agree for the most part. Not sure about Franky though. Although sooner IS better than later.

 

[pup11]

Predicting a quick 50 by Boucher.

 

[PhoenixFire]

I dearly would love SA to lose, for England's sake, and NZ are clearly on top here.

Either Franklin comes back to bowl his last 3 or we have McMillan bowling them, although using a slower bowler who can vary his pace quite well might be the better option.

Yeah, its either bowl Franklin now, or not at all.

Bond back into the attack. So far, just brillant from Bond. I have said it so many times, but Bond is the gunnest of the gun

 

[pup11]

Prince has played a decent knock considering the state of the match, he has rotated the strike very well.

 

[Perm]

McMillan gets a second wicket, that off Prince who falls for 37. He threw away a good start there, played a poor shot.

Haha spoke too soon, Prince gone.

EDIT: As soon as i say that Prince gets out, Posters curse i guess!! Anyways Macca gets another wicket.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Macca you big (happy now Pup? ) beauty. It was looking like 200+ was on, but the wicket of Prince was vital. Boucher still in, but a new man in at the other end means as low as 180 is possible.

I'm starting to like Baby-face Macca now
