Pretenders. JAMODI specialists

 

[NUFAN]

Yessss, amazing 1/1 or is it 1/1?

 

[Burgey]

This’ll be a good test of the “we’re so ****ing good we’ll just go hard” theory.

 

[weldone]

Wow Faf du Plessis, you are a genius

 

[Fuller Pilch]

2015 Rugby World Cup all over again! :-)

 

[SeamUp]

Faf the genius.

 

[mr_mister]

Are we gonna see Maxwell opening the bowling for us now?

And then Matt Henry got destroyed by Gayle and co

 

[SeamUp]

Don't think you want Andile and Pretorius bowling too many overs in the first powerplay so asked Immie to step up and he did.

 

[mr_mister]

Roooooooot

Indeed. Is this tactic going to be plan A for a number of sides vs. England now to throw them off them usual smashing starts...

 

[mr_mister]

I backed all of the big four to top score for their respective teams. Seems safer than bank interest over a tournament this long

 

[trundler]

Excellent so far.

 

[Zinzan]

This’ll be a good test of the “we’re so ****ing good we’ll just go hard” theory.

The reason I think they could well become unstuck in the knockout phase, too arrogant and confident about their batting depth to consolidate after losing a couple early like most others sides would.

 

[trundler]

Time for Root to fight back at the choker reputation.

Hoping all ugly baseball sloggers collectively fail this tournament.

 

[harsh.ag]

Beautiful bounce on the pitch. Just a bit of uncertainty.

 

[Zinzan]

Time for Root to fight back at the choker reputation.

Hoping all ugly baseball sloggers collectively fail this tournament.

Has he really got a choker reputation or does his Test hundred conversion just suck compared to other top bats? I'd have thought the latter.

Poor bowling Ngidi, 2 freebies so far.
