England to win

 

[HitWicket]

Likely to be slightly less dew today apparently but still a handy toss to win.

 

[carrom_ball]

No one watching this game?

 

[HitWicket]

Under pressure early.

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Its a shame Decock is not a regular in SA Squad. He is a super batsman. Reminds of Gilchrist.

5 more overs of Quinton and England will be chasing 250 here.

 

[Adil_94]

Topley just dropped Amla. Amla got away with that or Mamoon would have crucified him.

de Kock is so class.

topley what did you do...?

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Wankhade is such a belter.

Its Rohit's homeground and no one will be spared when batsmen are in their zone.

 

[battler]

De kock's off to an absolute flier! Man is this Mumbai pitch good for batting or not!!
Wish all matches were in Mumbai

 

[carrom_ball]

Glad South Africa aren't in our group

 

[Jabo]

Poor England.

Getting hit hard here, usually though, AB and others always fail when they are given a platform like this

What a miss. I've QDK in my Fantasy xi but I changed him in last moment with Faf

Lol England has no chance, I take back my words

 

[Berserk_Marshal_]

Amla batting with great finesse here. Getting really ugly for England now.

 

[MMHS]

Jordan has confused Amla - he is not sure if to hit him through off side or on side. Doing alternatively ...

 

[Mamoon]

This is carnage, de Kock and on fire. Dropped catch but still.

 

[street cricketer]

FTW!

 

[London_Lahori]

Omg, 72-0 in 4.5.

This over has gone 4 4 4 6 4

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Jordan should retire at the end of this over.

4446 and 2 more to come.

 

[mhraja]

This is brtual, need to stop else England are going home already.

 

[Jabo]

Geez, imagine we got a start like this against India, everyone would be going crazy.

Still think England should have kept Broad.

 

[Adijazz1706]

Ridiculous match this : :

 

[Lurker_Ind]

SA on pace to score 300 here. Will be a record that will not be touched anytime soon.

Feel sorry for English fans. Pathetic bowlers got selected and they are deservedly getting the hammering.

What are you saying yaar - he is the next Kapil Dev - Right arm fast medium, brilliant in field & can blast from late order (but he is not a slogger, like Kapil Panji, he is a proper batsman).

 

[Mamoon]

Someone wake Bilal7 up. He is missing this show put up by his idol.

However, idol #2 continues to get tonked.

Gotta feel for England. They are getting chewed up and spat out and then trampled on, before being set on fire and having their Ashes deposited into the sea.

Amla and De Kock bat so well together.

 

[street cricketer]

Lol This is a miserable time to be an English fan

The Big 3 are getting royally trolled

 

[Aman]

Looks like England are out.

 

[On_the_up]

AB in next, that should reduce the run rate...

Half of him will be over the moon and the other half will be sobbing uncontrollably.

I'm watching and please, only a fool would expect Moeen to keep these two quiet in the PP.

 

[Adil_94]

one of the best use of the first 6 overs I've seen by an opening pair simply incredible.

Lol just tuned in 73 in 5 overs. What an epic phainti.

Can SA score 250?

Maybe the Aussies and English can play another Ashes series while the Finals are going on

Wow, about time.

 

[Mamoon]

For the first time in T20I history, we could see two openers score hundreds.

 

[Bilal7]

So Kohli failed in his first match and Amla is batting like a dream. Who's the choker again?

 

[Mamoon]

Topley, can't bat, field or bowl.

He is more useless than Dernbach.

 

[Bilal7]

83 in the PP. LOL!

QDK is a special talent he can be a LOI ATG.

Cannot believe I thought England would do well in this T20 WC

Rashid will do well here but everyone else...

As soon as I say that a 1st ball four..

50* De Kock.

 

[BHM :D]

That shot to get his 50 was sublime by de Kock.

 

[yasir]

83 in power play, that must be record... An epic phanti and beast has not come out to bat yet...

#DoesntMatterItsNotTheAshes

 

[MMHS]

Looks like England are out.

Did you have any expectation? PAK confused us with their UAE heroics, but outside UK, most places, ENG 'll struggle against BD in ODI & T20.

 

[Syed1]

Lol people had put England's chance ahead of Pak. lololol

We can play with zero bowlers and still bowl better than this

 

[Strike Rate]

I always had doubt that we will never see a 300 total in T20s but if a team these days can get 80-90 runs in just 6 overs than i think we will see a 300 in in T20 within next 1-2 years.

 

[Sherlock]

Great delivery by Rashid.

 

[Mamoon]

So Kohli failed in his first match and Amla is batting like a dream. Who's the choker again?

Kohli was a beast in 2014 WT20 and has been less of a choker than Amla in World Cups.

However, when Kohli dominated the 2014 World T20, his performance was brushed aside because it is just T20 and no one cares about T20 performances, but I'm glad that the same card won't be used for Amla this time and he will be glorified for performing in a World T20.

 

[dauntless]

Both are playing soo well

 

[Bilal7]

Well played, De Kock! What an innings, thoroughly enjoyable.

Rashid and Moeen should start playing for Pakistan and ditch a rubbish team like England.

 

[Syed1]

I love it when arrogant teams and fans are brought down to the ground, first India, then England, then Australia and now England again. Tomorrow its India's turn again.

 

[Lurker_Ind]

Has there ever been a case where both openers got hundred?

Amla is in the zone.

 

[Varun]

Lol people had put England's chance ahead of Pak. lololol

It's fashion to say, "But but but can you beat Aus/Eng/SA?"

 

[dauntless]

What a shot amla

 

[Syed1]

What is the record for fastest team hundred in T20s?

 

[Bilal7]

Kohli was a beast in 2014 WT20 and has been less of a choker than Amla in World Cups.

A joke, buddy. Take it easy.

 

[Inswing]

RSA needed amla to fire and he have done it dont think that any team even stands close to SA atm

If they dont choke then its their WC to lose

 

[JaDed]

De Kock goes

 

[Lurker_Ind]

India bleow its load in Asia cup. Now its all about minnows to take the revenge.

Pak will send Indians back to their houses crying.

Not happy seeing Ali and Rashid getting tonked.

De Kocks turning out to be the baby-faced-small-sized version of Chris Gayle for the New England.

Does it really matter?

SA could bat poorly from here and still put up a very good total.
