***Official***Semi-Final #2- South Africa vs Australia - November 16th - Eden Gardens, Kolkata (D/N)

[Andyhere]

First ball of spin and it gets a wicket.

SA need to stick with the spinners.

They waited too long to bring spinners on

 

[King Kane]

Rabada strikes, great catch from VDD, it might still get interesting.

 

[Gob]

Yeah great catch

What's the hurry though? Settle down and play normally

 

[morgieb]

Some catch.

Next few overs actually pretty important now. One more wicket before the end of the PowerPlay and it's well and truly game on.

 

[Andyhere]

Marsh choked

 

[ripper868]

Great grab that. We can very much throw this away.

 

[Nintendo]

Lol marsh. Atleast we have smith and marnus for this chase.

 

[Andyhere]

Yeah great catch

What's the hurry though? Settle down and play normally

Marsh doesn't know how to do that. He is an arrogant batter

 

[Spark]

Yeah great catch

What's the hurry though? Settle down and play normally

Yeah like it's 150 off 40 overs. There's absolutely no rush.

 

[R!TTER]

You can't win big games consistently with kind of batting, both SA/Oz have played far too loose this WC.

 

[Burgey]

Ball touched the ground there on his way up, out of interest. Marsh never looked like it though

 

[Andyhere]

Maharaj will be the key. They need to bring him on before new batsman settles.

 

[Aidan11]

The comeback is on.

 

[morgieb]

Lol marsh. Atleast we have smith and marnus for this chase.

Yeah 70-80 off 20 overs from them would suit us just fine. That's the advantage of Warner + Head going so hard so early, it gives us a reasonably big margin for error.

 

[Daemon]

This is perfectly set up for twin 50s at 70 SR from Smith and Labu.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Ball touched the ground there on his way up, out of interest. Marsh never looked like it though

really?

 

[Spark]

We are making this unnecessarily complicated. Get some singles

 

[loterry1994]

Time for smith to do something this tournament

 

[Adorable Asshole]

It's almost the repeat of 2019 SF between Eng and Aus.

Now more like a repeat of SA vs Pak 2023.

 

[Spark]

This is perfectly set up for twin 50s at 70 SR from Smith and Labu.

Michael Clarke used to be an absolute specialist at this. Would play the most boring innings that put everyone to sleep and win the game by the 45th over basically any time we had a chase like this.
