***Official***Match #26- South Africa vs Pakistan- October 27th-Chennai (D/N)

beeb describing South Africa as "clinical" (at half time), they were 86/3, and indeed 141/5, so not sure I'd use the term "clinical" when Pakistan got 270 even if a few balls short of 300

not saying it isn't a good bowling effort, just clinical would suggest they took every chance, gave Pakistan no chance and whilst SS may be right re how short it might be of a competitive total

Games at the same stadium so far :

AUS 199 chased succesfully by India
BAN 245/9 chased down by kiwis easily
NZL 288/6 comfortably saw off Afghans
PAK 282/7 chased down by same chasers

conclusion might be Pakistan need to bowl a lot better, although South Africa's games to date have all been won by the side batting 1st - them four times, Holland the other, so would be their first game with side batting 2nd winning if they were to...

Pakistan not batting the full 50 is unforgiveable.

Still 270 could be tricky. Decent lower-middle order batting saved Pakistan a bit.
they were 86/3 and 141/5, 6 down with 10.2 overs remaining so isn't clever but not sure they had much control over it in the end

What kind of junk is that to open the bowling? 30 off the first 2 overs is laughable.

QDK kicking on from where he left off without even needing a sighter.
