*** Official *** South African Domestic Season 2019/20

[SeamUp]

Must be injury if they are playing Potgieter? Mulder can not bowl, maybe?

Tough one to judge. Think they like Potgieter to give it a bash in the middle and at the back end (Lubbe the same) so vd Bergh was the obvious choice.

 

[StephenZA]

What happened to Sarel Erwee ?

Hit on elbow from rising ball... played on for a bit but never looked comfortable.

 

[StephenZA]

2 terrible wickets that. Not good running, and Roelofsen just running past a straight one. Still loved what I saw of Roelofsen.

 

[SeamUp]

Really like the balance of this Dolphins team. Just that Mogakane position up in the air.

EDIT : depth of batting will be tested now with Marques going out so quickly after those 2.

 

[SeamUp]

Situational batting non-existent by Zondo there. All the momentum with the Lions now.

Absolute jinx here...

 

[SeamUp]

Absolute jinx here...

A proper one

Pitch looks a goodie. Been some poor batting.

These 2 at the crease need to take it deep for Frylinck and Subrayen. They bat deeper than most.

The positive is these 2 are slightly more text book batsmen.

 

[SeamUp]

Warriors squad for tomorrow. Tiaan van Vuuren is in the squad for the first time.

 

[StephenZA]

Poor from Muthusamy that. Should have just rotated stroke to Erwee... Erwee is looking good. Nice little recovery partnership though.

 

[StephenZA]

Been a bizarre sort of game... lots of different things that you don't often see happen, all happening in the one game.

 

[StephenZA]

No Birch. Qeshile back in the side. Interesting to see Tait. Cobras opening with Bird.

Qeshile drops Bird with a dolly.

 

[SeamUp]

Guess what ? I've got loadshedding.

Out to the shop and then will be back to watch the game.

 

[StephenZA]

Unimpressive innings by Bird. Almost felt reckless... got lucky early as well.

 

[SeamUp]

Didn't see any of it but to be fair to him he is 18 and mixing it in senior cricket and not exactly failing.

He hit some good shots, and also showed nerves... but he never settled, kept flashing outside off and missing the ball. There was almost an arrogance in his temperament that said he should be hitting things easily all over the park, rather than giving the bowlers their due. As you said he is only 18 but needs to grow up quickly.

The warriors bowling has been excellent this morning, given little away.

 

[Woodster]

I don’t suppose there’s a link available to watch this game is there ?

I don't think so, supersport are idiots about the whole thing. Lucky that they are even showing it.

 

[StephenZA]

Soft from Smith. The Cobras just feel like a struggling team that does not know how to build an innings, feels like the talent is there but everybody is uncertain with what they should be doing.

It's definitely a modern issue. These kids play so much T20 at school now they have these positive mindsets. The balance between being positive and wreckless seems to be to fine-a-line.

Tayo Walbrugh is a Bosch boy so 2 of them at the crease with the other being Zubz.

 

[SeamUp]

Tait looks nice despite poor fast ball.

Left-arm, nice action and he looks sharp. Snappy arm action.
