I've been a harsh critic of Miller. Made me taste it today

Why are the fielders pushed so far back?and where's the slip?

He has improved considerably in the last 2 years, much more consistent.
That would be over the top at this stage. Run a ball from here puts them at 205 which is very manageable.

That doesn't make sense. They aren't looking to restrict sa, they are looking to get them out. If there's no slip and everyone is pushed back it limits what the bowlers can do.
This is what separates a top team from Pakistan. No idea how to close out the show. The leg side has one in fielder, even for a tail ender lol

Rabada is not a number 9
ODI is all about restricting sides. If you bring field in and SA slap boundaries but are bowled out for 220 that is worse than restricting them to 205-8. Basic stuff.
Very few, if any ODI sides would have slip in at this stage. England didn't have one against NZ when having a big lead bowling to tail yesterday. Boundary fielders are catching fielders in this type of situation. As Morris wicket showed.

The best two bowlers bowl only 8 overs. Bad captaincy.

Very little lateral thinking from Sarfraz here. That leg side field has given away 30 or so runs in the last 6 or 7 overs. Bad bad bad.

Absolutely ridiculous that Ali has only bowled 7.

Just bad captaincy this. No Ali, no slips, have sa completely strangled and yet let them and I do mean, let them reach 200.
Sarfraz disappoints me the more I see of him.

No slips? You still wobbling on about this? You want Rabada to hit boundaries and find twos easier?
