Indeed. Sunset is set for 7:53. This game looks like it could very well be over before then.

A lot of things have to go right for South Africa, but if they do then you never know. A bowling line-up of Steyn, Rabada, Tahir, and Ngidi is going to have teams in trouble more often than not; and in Amla, De Kock, Du Plessis, Duminy, and Miller they've got batsman with experience who if they fire can set imposing totals and comfortably chase down targets. The key words there are "if they fire", and South Africa's success at the tournament is going to depend on getting them to fire consistently.

Yes and no... I don't trust Duminy or Miller to do anything but bat out maybe 10-15 overs and hopefully score quickly. If they are given anymore than that then they are likely to fail. Amla and Faf need to try stabilise the top order and make sure that Duminy/Miller need not do anything more than the end job. But Amla and Faf are not likely to take the game away by scoring at a fast rate.
QDK however can do it all... he can bat through the innings and if he gets going can take the game away from the opposition by the 30th over, or just bat out the innings at a SR of 110+. None of the other batsmen can do that.
With the bowlers we have we should always be in with a shout.

I guess it worked out this time

Miller should get the man of the match award for his fielding.

He did. Has anyone ever seen a MotM award given out to someone who didn't bowl and scored less than Miller's 10? I seem to recall Sir Viv and Jonty Rhodes getting an award once and I'm thinking Mark Taylor too based largely off fielding, but can't recall the specific game to know what they scored.

Jonty Rhodes was man of the match once in a domestic game when he wasn't even in the eleven, for his sub fielding.
