Super Eight

Unlucky for Taylor there. He has had a fairly dire WC to date, hopefully he can put that right in the Semis.

On his toes and hit above knee roll should of given him a hint.

Yeah, poor decision really. Above the knee roll is a big hint that it is too high.

Anyways, whats done is done. The Pig at the crease now. Hopefully he can continue is batting form and bat thru to the end.

Thats the spirit. More optimistic than some NZ supporters.

If they win here, it's pretty much guaranteed right?

If they win here, it's pretty much guaranteed right?

Yes. With 10pts its mathematically impossible to miss the semis.

They gotta win first tho

 

[PhoenixFire]

Just noticed that NZ are about 1.01 runs behind the RRR, they should just keep an eye on that.......

That boundary should take the pressure off a bit.

Fleming is the dangerman for South Africa, they will fancy themselves against Pig (regardless of the wicket) for all they usually do to him is bounce him until he does something stupid but captain Fleming is looking in pretty decent touch.

What is Pollock's pace in Mph?

Mid 70's.

And Styris isn't?

And Styris isn't?

Nel just nearly took his block of. Pig is in fine touch but South Africa always believe they have a great chance with him and as type his nearly out.

Nearly worked there. Although if that was taken it woulda been an absolute screamer by Prince.

Well, now i look at the replay, it wasnt as tough of a chance as I first thought. Still....

 

[Pratters]

Oh.. Prince should have caught that. Really have to get one of these two quick before it is too late.

 

[TT Boy]

Yeah, Ashwell should have taken that.

Nel running on the pitch to rough it up for Peterson

Time to pull an Afridi?

 

[Pratters]

Fleming has been looking solid but this over, he has tried to take on the bowler with a few attacking shots trying to exploit the power play. Don't think that is necessary. Singles and twos with a four here and there is good enough. You don't want to lose wickets playing a stupid shot at this stage.

Robbie P is so class he doesn't really need much assistance tbh

Shot!! Pig is in, and RSA are in trouble.

 

[Pratters]

Bring in Ntini for an over hey.. Nel not looking good.
