SA20 2024

[Stefan9]

That is some last over from Klaassen.
Butler & Miller will need their best games if Royals want any chance on this ground.

Good to see MICT still haven't figured out how to use poetgieter, and have decided he's now a specialist #9 bat who won't bowl according to the batting lineup. Maybe don't go and buy a million overseas allrounder's when you already have linde and poetgieter on your bench FFS.

 

[Aidan11]

Tight finish.

 

[trundler]

My man Linde almost pulled it off in the final over too after going at an ER under run a ball. Truly the vitruvian all rounder.

 

[Aidan11]

Oh that's close.

Rain ruined the later match. Shame because they get good crowds at these games.

Rain ruined the later match. Shame because they get good crowds at these games.

Real shame as game was sold out.

 

[Aidan11]

Nice cameo from Klaasen at the end of the DSG innings. Fifty up in 16 balls - the fastest in SA 20.

Helped DSG to a decent score of 208/7

 

[trundler]

Klaasen and Stoinis have utility:hype ratios that are inverse of one another.

 

[Stefan9]

Not very smart from Miller giving Allen the 19th over to Klaassen. That over really changed the total they would be chasing.

 

[Aidan11]

Those two wickets have put Paarl in real trouble.

 

[Aidan11]

Can't see them getting back on out there. The rain looks quite heavy and set in for the duration.

 

[SeamUp]

Not so much a fan of this for the detriment to the cricket I care most about.

But this tournament has been quality. Best v best in SA and great to see certain players thriving.

 

[SeamUp]

Biggest area of joy has been the quality of fielding compared to our domestic cricket.

Dough time in SA20.

 

[Molehill]

Not watched one of these games for a while. Numbers in the crowd seem to have fallen off a cliff. It's also another seemingly dreadful game.
