*Official* Australia in South Africa 2023/24

[Silver Silva]

Nah Rassie averages 60 and strikes at 90. Hard to beat that.

I should have said on current form ..

Rassie is having a big dip in form this year , only averaging 33 this year and that was before this game .

Bavuma in contrast is averaging 84 this year .

This must be really difficult for the Aussie bowlers to get around , such a Huuuge contrast in batting styles at the crease ..

Bavuma a Diminutive Right Hander ..
Marco Jansen a Giant Right Hander ..

Jansen more like a tall beanstalk rather than a Giant

SA batting is so rubbish right now it doesn't matter what format. We have the players but the constant chopping and changing of formats and lack of first class cricket is hampering us.

 

[Molehill]

Given how the odd ball is keeping low, probably no surprise that Bavuma is the one batsman who has managed to stay in. 240 could be more than competitive on this, if they can get there.

 

[Prince EWS]

Hard not to feel for Bavuma here but he has himself partly to blame for barbecuing Rassie earlier.

 

[Carlos]

he may have sold Rassie down the river but there are another 6/7 batters who didnt stand up either.

 

[Silver Silva]

I think SA has the worst 7-11 batting positions at the World Cup

Aus sloppy in the Field, missed many run out chances as well

Jansen would be an ok 8, but he's not a 7. And those below him are barely better than 11's.

Quality drop from Carey.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

This is a top 100 from the diminutive Proteas skipper.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Okay, say what you want about ODIs.

This format just creeps up on you. Tells the story of perseverance and grit. Temba's knock is exemplary. They might still lose though.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Fortune favors the brave.

 

[Carlos]

soemthing to bowl at thanks only to Bavuma. Think they are 30 shy of what they will need.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Well played Temba.

222 all out

Ngidi clearly from the school of Shannon Gabriel No.11's with that last shot.
