[Zeshan547]

Fine start by AB and south africa

 

[90MPH]

AB out.

Not sure he should be opening tbh.

 

[90MPH]

Hastings is a decent bowler though, intelligent one.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Why AB came up the order?

 

[yasir]

Important notes for how to bowl to AB, short balls, change the length, don't give him width....

I hope Amir and Irfran taking note. He is relatively easy to bowl upfront, since he is too aggressive

Good fielding.

 

[Zeshan547]

That's what happen when you play too many shots too early, big wicket for Oz, Ab gone

 

[90MPH]

SA killing it now - 74/1 after 7 overs.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Excellent batting by De Kock.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Geez! SA are destroying this OZ attack. [MENTION=139973]carrom_ball[/MENTION] Maybe AUS are not favourites after all

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Almost forgot about this match

 

[Ab Fan]

SA looks like a very good side as of now.

Steyn,Rabadda and Tahir are three top bowlers in their team.Then they will have Morris and Wiese+Duminy to fill the bowling quota.Abbott wouldn't make it unless any one gets injured.

ABD, De Kock, Faf, Duminy, Miller should be the top five batters for them.The debate is for the no.6 position. Rossouw and Behardien have been mediocre while Amla coming in the top means AB will be shifted down.So that is what the debate is most likely about in the SA camp.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Faf and behardien partnership was a total waste. Why is that hack even back in the team?! Kick him out and bring Amla back in.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Well played Faf!

 

[JustAnotherFan]

That was probably 26 off the last over, including 1 wicket, 3 sixes and 2 fours.

Yep, 26. I still think we're a bit short though.

 

[#GreenRoars]

[MENTION=137419]dashing_man[/MENTION] our man Faf was on fire today.

Good pick by you, shabash.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Finch for 2, b Rbada

 

[yasir]

Rabada is playing IPL?

Look at pace 148 and now 150... Pace and accuracy.

I think he'll be playing in England then, unfortunately.

He opted not to make himself available

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Smith doesn't look very comfortable in this format, or is it just me?

 

[#GreenRoars]

Can watch every delivery of Rabada seriously.

 

[yasir]

That's big loss to IPL, two of the most exciting fast bowlers (Amir and Rabada) in the world, both not playing in IPL.

told you my list is a brain work

 

[Alamgeer]

Smith is an aweful bat.

 

[yasir]

Smith is late on Rabada's pace... Looking awkward [emoji46][emoji46][emoji46]

[Ozymandiasza]

Threatening over from Steyn. Wow, almost forgot how good he is in T20s.

 

[yasir]

Styen is 10k slower than Rabada... Is he now going to be Waqar of late 90s and beyond?

He really is quite incredible.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Wow! Awesome catch!

 

[90MPH]

That was a great catch by Rabada - one hand athleticism.

 

[yasir]

Rabada is a freak, never seen a fast bowler taking catch like that.

This guy is definitely next superstar of world cricket.

Best batsman in the world is awful ? Good joke.

 

[Haroon786]

Australia in for a real hammering tonight.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Aus under deep trouble.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

SA need to play the attack of Morkel/Steyn/Rabada/Tahir at World T20.

 

[Zeshan547]

If these two can carry on, then we have one heck of finish coming up folks, so india bd final getting delayed seems blessing in disguise.

 

[#GreenRoars]

This match is gonna be cracker. Maxy smashing it now.

 

[Ab Fan]

Morkel isn't selected in the squad..So he won't be there..

 

[Zeshan547]

Man is this for real, you kidding me, you can't do that even in video game cricket.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

No target is safe on this ground

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Wiese has been taken apart completely here.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Morkel isn't selected in the squad..So he won't be there..

What?

 

[#GreenRoars]

Absolute carnage, brilliant.

 

[Zeshan547]

roary do you think if pak was in place of aus at 36/3 and needed more than 12 per over for next 14 overs, do they had any chance of pulling that, i don't think our pathetic batting could even have dreamed that.

 

[#GreenRoars]

What?

Yes, he isn't in WT20 squad.

 

[#GreenRoars]

No bro, our players are mentally fragile. They would have ended at 100 or may be 120. Not more than this tbh.

And look how mature game Warner and Max are playing, brilliant.

 

[Ab Fan]

Warner- Maxi turning the game..

 

[Zeshan547]

Ik ye batsman hain aur ik hmaray batsman hain, ya Allah ye khula tazaad hai, sara talent in baqi teams ko day dia.

Can Aussies do that in India vs India/Pak..?I mean just for WC t20 sake..Obviously overall Aus are way superior.

 

[inam_1]

What a pull shot six off steyn by warner

 

[Zeshan547]

bro leave alone mental ability, i don't think even a single batsman in whole pak have basic cricketing ability to pull of such a daunting target. Not even vs PNG

 

[#GreenRoars]

And our great selectors and great coach is trying to pull in Salman Butt

They can do it against Pakistan since Pakistan doesn't have any good spinners.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Morris

 

[Zeshan547]

South africa and choking, what an eternal relation.

[Zeshan547]

just when you think it couldn't get any worse,

 

[#GreenRoars]

Whattay time to bowl a No ball

 

[Ab Fan]

Agreed completely.They will find tough vs Ashwin/Jadeja combo only.

 

[Zeshan547]

man that post was about morris chocking with all those wides and no ball, when it was last thing south africa wanted.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Terrible time to get out.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

Well played Maxwell

 

[#GreenRoars]

What Rabada can do here now?

 

[carrom_ball]

Morris is on a roll, first winning matches with the bat and now with the ball, it seems

 

[#GreenRoars]

Bowled em, O dear, that was a brilliant delivery

 

[Zeshan547]

Man wth you silly aussies how can you choke it vs king chokers.

 

[carrom_ball]

[Slog]

What a game.

Unbelievably exciting t20 cricket

 

[Zeshan547]

What drama, what a finish.

 

[inam_1]

Faulkner can still do it.. what a a close game

 

[#GreenRoars]

Silly throw yaar.

 

[Slog]

Oh Miller, what the hell you have done.

Excellent bowling by Rabada but poor soul
