Bangladesh v South Africa, (NOT a Dead Rubber!) at Abu Dhabi, 11/2 Tuesday (D), Match # 30, Group 1

[SillyCowCorner1]

Bangladesh without their talisman, Shakib Al Hasan versus a Proteas team full of spark and momentum after winning from an improbable position against the Sri Lankans.


Also, wickets in this World Cup:

Liam Livingston- 4
India- 2

 

[Aritro]

It's gonna be a long night.

 

[Bahseph]

A huge game for SA this. The batting has been patchy with individual performances keeping them afloat but the bowling has stood up as a unit. Hopefully QDK finds some form.

 

[cnerd123]

No Shakib, this will be a paddlin'

 

[Burgey]

Let's hope so.

Has he been suspended again?

 

[Howe_zat]

This is the first match in any world tournament (T20, Champion's Trophy or World Cup) Bangladesh have played without Shakib Al Hasan since he was 17.

Rabada doing the dose of salts thing.

Mushfiqur in no position to play that.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Rabada getting some serious climb out of this track. At a rapid lick too.

Mmm, it's climbing alright

 

[Aritro]

It's gonna be a long night.

It's going to be pretty short actually

 

[BoyBrumby]

Nortje gets in on the act.

Bounce again.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Ah, jeez, Afif. What the actual ****?

Vile swipe across the line first up when your team's 34/4 almost certainly not the go.

 

[Groundking]

A bit too easy for SA this.

 

[Aritro]

Well that's finished me off. Time to read a book.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Change the thread title.

 

[trundler]

Pretorius is pretty handy hey

 

[BoyBrumby]

Score predictor reckons 92 from here?

I reckon the Banglas would snatch your hand off if you offered them that now.

 

[trundler]

They're not exactly known for their batting depth. Bowl em out and chase it in 8 overs

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Nice.

A complete revamp is required.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Shamsi gets Das.

Pending review. Maybe umpire's call? Nope, hitting leg flush.

Think this could be wrapped up super pronto now.
