[morgieb]

Wow. Apparently Bangladesh's highest ever ODI score.

marmadoola is such a cult hero

SA chasing this. We are short of 20 runs

 

[Borges]

Good work this. This should be a competitive game.

So we are back from cricket to Dave Richardson ball; 330 being just about par and all that.[FONT=helvetica, Segoe UI, Arial, sans-serif] [/FONT]

Brilliant turnaround in the last few overs. The lesson we can learn from this is that ***** should stop posting.

 

[Borges]

They gave slippy the 330 he asked for.

That is the advantage of being measured, not too greedy, in one's requests: slippy always gets just what he asks for.

 

[slippy888]

Unreal that Bangladesh are a 11/10 shot here to win game

 

[fishyguy]

This is the worst SA world cup team in history. However BD bowling is pretty terrible, question is how terrible is SA batting in comparison.

BIG true

 

[Daemon]

65/35 i reckon

 

[trundler]

Bad bowling vs bad batting is a pretty enjoyable matchup

 

[Athlai]

Klusener
Symonds
Clarke
De Villiers
Sir Viv
Guptill
Dravid
Turner

And of course Marmadoola


^blokes with 10+ innings at world cups averaging 60+

The highest successful run chase in any #CWC match is 329/7 by Ireland while chasing England's 327/8 at Bangalore in 2011. South Africa will set a new record if they manage to pull this off!

Until we win a WC we are still absolute **** aren't we.

 

[vcs]

I reckon SA will chase this down with surprising ease.

 

[trundler]

Yeah South Africa aren't breaking any team records in a WC

 

[weldone]

If this goes down to the wire and SA still manage to win that'll give them much needed confidence and mental strength for the rest of the tournament.

 

[TimAngas]

Bookies still have SA as favourites here which I think is ridiculous. Batting looks extremely thin with Phehlukwayo at 7 and game basically riding on QdK and du Plessis I think.

 

[Athlai]

I’m not trying to big up the Bangladesh bowling lineup here, but feel this thread is underestimating them. Mortaza, Fizz. Mehidy and Shakib is 40 overs of proper class bowling. This isn’t going to be handed to South Africa on any kind of platter.

 

[mr_mister]

Burgeys prediction being put to the test early

 

[trundler]

Very interested in how Fizz goes.
