So far, Elliott and Anderson have been far calmer under pressure than the panicky supporters on here. As long as the Required RR is in single digits, they're ahead.

 

[straw man]

Good batting by Elliott. I'm relieved Steyn and Tahir only have two left each; target the rest.

 

[Niall]

We need to lower that RRR. Otherwise too much pressure if a wicket falls.

As long as Corey is their at the end, NZ are still very much in this.


Its been a very gutsy innings this from Elliot, and has justified his place in the team.

Well done selectors.

These next two balls can't be dots

this partnership has been so immense one can't praise enough going run a ball in the middle overs in a WC SF is unheard while chasing 300 in 40 odd overs. Its easier going hell for leather in a pressure game but going at a good rate without overdoing it is immense.

philander off the field apparently

I have a Kiwi mate who reckons that Eden Park has run out of beer. If this is true and NZ loses, there's riots, surely.

Tbf jonbrooks is providing 50% of the panic and 90% of the hysteria right now

 

[jonbrooks]

LOL @ ask the winning captain a question. My question is, "How do you feel after this game?"

Simple but to the point. Bad luck to AB.

 

[OverratedSanity]

SA need wickets desperately tbh. They won't win this if Corey bats till the end.

 

[ankitj]

Things starting to go wrong for SA?

 

[Swingpanzee]

that was a good try by AB

Not much of a death bowler even when on song, Abbot however is, another reason why that selection was so absurd.

Thank you for your cooperation Corey

Good over that.

SA are throwing themselves everywhere giving it their all in the field.

Wonderful to watch.

Too right. This is heart in mouth stuff man.

 

[turnstyle]

Still reckon SA have this

 

[Swingpanzee]

should aim for 8 min. in the next over,

singles + 1 four

Yea that might end up being the difference.
