*Official* Sri Lanka Tour of South Africa 2019

[Maximas]

I think it might turn out like that chase in the England series, looked close at times but ultimately will likely fall short

 

[OverratedSanity]

Good start by these two

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Dale Steyn just doing Dale Steyn things

Steyn just killed it within 3 deliveries......

 

[slippy888]

Chase is over Sri Lanka have one of the longest tails in cricket history

 

[OverratedSanity]

Steyn <3

 

[slippy888]

Only way Sri lanka can win from here if these 2 get the score up to 250/6, both Kusal and Dhanaja are capable batsman for sure but sometimes they lack the belief they good enough at this level.

 

[Bolo]

These 5 bowlers must be the leading contender for the GOAT htb attack. And they still found a way to give dean and aiden a bowl

 

[StephenZA]

I'm getting thrown by all this stupid talk of dropping Steyn for Mulder..... I understand the Olivier has bowled some good spells with his short stuff, but he is not in anyway ahead of Steyn in the pecking order.

Yes lets drop Steyn so we can keep Olivier and play Mulder.... hopefully this end this insane idea now.

 

[slippy888]

Its kinda high odds for Sri Lanka to win this at 14/1 now considering what Kusal and Dhanaja are capable of

 

[Bolo]

Drop kg. Play both. Lower workload is good, rest is better.

And i also want duanne to play next game. He has earned it. Who knows when he gets another shot. We go from bouncing sc teams to their home soon. No place for him

 

[slippy888]

Cant drop Rabada after his loyalty

Rest KG in the LO stuff.... and you do not need to be playing Olivier in PE.

 

[Stefan9]

With vern injured reckon only change would be mulder for him.

Who would play ahead of him? Ngidi ready after just 1 one day game?

Comment made before I heard Philander was injured....

Just to be clear, if Philander injured Mulder comes in his place. If Philander not that bad and plays, then Olivier out for Mulder.

 

[Stefan9]

Ah ok nvm then

 

[Bolo]

Ya. Rest not drop. He has been tired forever. I wouldn't worry too much about the others. Kg is three format,the best we have and only 23. Protect this asset. Not difficult. Talent pool is as deep as it will ever be. Instead he gets the highest workload we have dumped on a player. We broke donald with much less.

Would have preferred him rested for test. Its the workload of many Los. He needs odi practice. Ive got my eye on wc. Oh well.maybe he rests properly he will regain form

He is not exactly out of form? If this is Rabada out of form looking forward to form beast mode in India, Agree, needs a bit of a break before the WC, Ngidi will hopefully help with that.

 

[Dendarii]

He is not exactly out of form?

It does seem a bit ridiculous to talk about a guy who's averaging 22 in the three matches he's played this year as being "out of form", although his ODI stats aren't so good.

Ngidi will hopefully help with that.

Hopefully, as there's an obvious reason why Rabada has played more matches than anyone else this season.
