Good game, this.

 

[Cabinet96]

South Africa are running out of overs for their primary overs. After this Lopsy over Steyn has one more and Lopsy has none. Down to Morris, McLaren and Petersen.

WI's to lose IMO.

I'd share your confidence if Samuels hadn't chucked his wicket away.

 

[Ferraz]

... and now pollard

 

[Cabinet96]

It's not really confidence, I like South Africa Anyway, Sammy is a pretty handy number 8, but it just got interesting again.

 

[Cabinet96]

They would've just dropped below the D/L par score as well o:

 

[kykweer.proteas]

huuuuuuge wicket that last one

 

[Scaly piscine]

Get the Pollard effigies ready.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

Surely if we are over the time its gg

Incredible, something about South Africa and d/l drama.

It's uncanny.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Good on SA if they've got this. Twenty yrs of misery..about time they got a good deal. Hope they go win the whole thing now.

Guess they'll all argue that it's payback for them getting screwed over in (92?) though.

I know that WI haven't been screwed over, as such, FTR, just a tad unlucky.

Don't know why the Sky pundits are having a massive whinge about not knowing what's going on though.

I hope people don't lay into Pollard. You can't bat assuming you're going to go off every ball, especially as the commentators were implying there would be no more rain.

Yeah, it's just bad luck. If the rain had come one ball earlier...

Another exciting game ruined by rain

 

[ankitj]

For once, it's not South Africa. For once.

 

[BeeGee]

So did we really need to waste another 10 minutes on the national anthems. That's 10 minutes of sun and the game being reduced by an over. Such a Cricket thing to do.

Definitely affected the result of this game, tbh.

Anthems are nice to have, not need to have and should be the first thing sacrificed in shortened games.

Guy is an idiot

Do you seriously think that it was bright sunshine with no chance of rain as the bowler was running up?

Deserves all the stick that is coming his way IMO

 

[Garson007]

... South Africa got the rub of luck? What.
