5th Match - South Africa v Bangladesh

Filthy stuff from Mortaza

Du Plessis must be the most underrated ODI player in the world. He's much better than the likes of Steve Smith imo, but people don't even put them in the same bracket.

Bit loose from Mortaza this over.

 

[Borges]

Right! Mashrafe Mortaza doing his bit to make this a more even contest.

You get the feeling that Markram looks a little calmer with DuPlessis at the crease with him. I can certainly understand that the situation could be overwhelming for him considering his experience at the top level and SA looking down the barrel. De Kock though is another story.

Markram was 100% responsible for QDK's dismissal.

Quality little spell from Shakib here

Wonder how Mortaza is going to slip in Saifuddin's overs, and how much Mahmadullah and Moses will bowl.

 

[Borges]

Shakib is giving nothing away.

 

[Howe_zat]

Gonna look like a pretty ordinary chase if Mortaza keeps bowling medium pace short balls

Needs to get his **** together. SA will be happy for Shakib to take 0-45

Just one bad ball really out of six, and one good shot. And the third boundary he conceded in his spell was a half chance/risky shot. He bowled mostly fine, there is just very little room for error at his pace in these conditions.

As good as Smith.

Lmao one of the commentators just said "thanks bishop" to Ian Bishop

One of the best cake players in the tournament. Smith is too tho

 

[cnerd123]

I think Mortaza's got to go with one of the part time spinners for a bit. Saifuddin and himself aren't troubling Faf or getting anything of this wicket.

 

[Borges]

This match is quite nicely poised now. C'mon Saffers, you can get there!

Haha that gets him angry.

Markram was 100% responsible for QDK's dismissal.

Possibly, but let's be clear here. Markram is playing in his first world cup, is likely to get dropped for Amla next game and knows that a loss today may be as good as the end of SA's world cup campaign. De Kock is the form batsman, scored runs on the same ground last game, and has significantly more experience. Pretty clear to me who should have been the one to release the pressure there. De Kock was clearly under pressure during that partnership, and a lot of it was his own doing.

 

[kykweer.proteas]

This is painful, we should just lose already.

Typical Makram that
