*Official* South African tour of England and Ireland 2022

Carse kept it tight there in that over.

 

[Heboric]

I dont think that wicket is as easy as people are making it out to be. Obviously the Proteas still need to bowl decently

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

53 overs in and there's the first 6 of the day

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

England's openers have come out with positive intent. Bairstow almost ran himself out due to this intent thing.

 

[Apex Predator]

Nortje breaking some helmets will be awesome... Think Shamsi might go for plenty today.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Rassie is off the field. Hydration issues. I think he's done for the day, unless the captain calls on him to bowl.

England 333 @ 6.66
Can't believe the radio commentary team think it'll be 20 runs too little.

Hopefully he's OK. Did something similar happen to Potts?

I'm unsure about Potts's situation.

Just needed to potty

Just needed to potty

A two-hour potty

He does average 3 with the ball in ODIs, so they might just consider turning to him.

I am cognizant of this which is why I brought it up lol.

Love Rassie.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

SA need a wicket here. These two are setting up shop here.

Come on Proteas!

SA need a wicket here.

Bring on Rassie!

 

[trundler]

It's not quite reminiscent of Shai Hope but this is an unusually subdued start from the English openers

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Bring on Rassie!

Unfortunately as per CSA, he's quite winded and experiencing cramps.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

The required rate is getting away from them. Almost at 8 an over required

 

[Heboric]

Ngidi is quite the donkey in the field

SA are bowling really well.

And I'm not entirely sure why Bairstow reviewed that. Or why Root didn't invite him not to bother.
