1st Semi Final - New Zealand v South Africa (24th March)

[viriya]

The one thing I'm worried about is Henry's overs from here on out. Bowls a hittable length and I've never seen him at the death

Probably should bowl him out now then.

SA should cruise 6 an over to the PP. That will take them to 164. Then PP they should conservatively get 8po. That'll take them to 204 by the 40th over. Then 100 off the last 10 and NZ will be staring down a 300 chase.

SA has hit another 4.

lucky do plessis

SA have had some luck go there way in this dig. Inside edges and now outside edges going for four.

 

[Swingpanzee]

sheez this looks ominous

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

the carnage probably has just started

 

[jonbrooks]

At 33.. **** for a batter averaging ~50 in Tests.. a big game player though (except his last match of course).

So BMac averaging 30 in ODIs is a **** player as well? Stats don't tell the whole story of how good someone is.

 

[smash84]

damn, what a shot ab

 

[jonbrooks]

SA is going ballistic. This is not good :-(

 

[halba]

nz look f***ed, 320 plus saf

 

[GGG]

Massive score here.

Baz gets his runs at a 90+ SR.. Mahela is <80.

 

[jonbrooks]

SA firm favourites at the TAB now at $1.50.

 

[straw man]

To state the obvious need wickets here or 330 is on. Otoh two wickets and we can put a whole heap of pressure on Duminy and the rest.

 

[Hurricane]

Game is getting away on us. Do something Brendon.

 

[GGG]

Yeah, 300+ and we fold for 220. Off to the doom and gloom thread.

 

[Swingpanzee]

cracking shot.

AB showing why he won the nobel prize for divinity.

 

[Snippie27]

These two and their running between wickets. Such nerves! Really don't need to be unnecessarily risky!

 

[jonbrooks]

80 is still a very good SR.
