South Africa (145/8) crash out of T20 World Cup 2022 after shock defeat to Netherlands (158/4)

[Faisalabadimunda]

Rubbish bowl

 

[Justcrazy]

Pretty easy target for SA here

 

[Kroll]

Game could be over quickly.

 

[Grunge101]

Netherlands are going to rue that 6-15 over period. Should've scored atleast 15-20 more considering the start they had had. Sure Nortje bowled well but they could've easily gotten min 2 boundaries off him, missed out on atleast 3-4 loose balls.

Dowd's 31 ball 29 main culprit there. Also VdMerwe should've come in place of Bas.

Their bowling is their stronger suit. Let's see

 

[Kroll]

QdK very dangerous, one of the highest SR in WC.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Seems like ball coming on to the bat better now

 

[Justcrazy]

If SA bat 20 overs they should win this easily.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Misfeld what they cant afford. Need fielding to be on point

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

They need to ball well and field well. And hope for wkts to come quickly

 

[adzzy786]

Never felt this nervous watching a non Pakistan match

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 6/0 (1 over; target: 159).

 

[sweep_shot]

QdK very dangerous, one of the highest SR in WC.

Yup.

He is capable of destroying top bowlers. This is why Netherlands have to get him out quickly.

 

[Inswing]

Seriously a NO ball?

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Rubbish man no ball

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

This will kick start a phainta fr Netherlands. Seriously man that was not needed

 

[Inswing]

De kock will knock us out haha

 

[Kroll]

Holland team missing desi bowlers like Sikandar Raza, Imran Tahir types.

 

[Hectic]

This is over man, simple chase for Saffers. Off to catch 2 hours sleep.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Just as was about to say Netherlands need to ball well the guy balls a no ball and gives de kock sum momentum

 

[Kroll]

Fook, I said please Dutch, dont bowl no balls, wides, or make silly fielding mistakes

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

No problems for de kock so far. Seems like this was indeed a flat road pitch

 

[imshally81]

This is over man, simple chase for Saffers. Off to catch 2 hours sleep.

Same here

 

[sweep_shot]

No-ball. Six.

Netherlands can't afford to be sloppy.

 

[Kroll]

Game's done and dusted, bags being finished packing by the Pak team.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Even bavuma timing the ball well. Ominous signs so far.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Unfortunately. Netherlands balling doesntbhave the firepower to trouble saf

 

[Kroll]

Probably not even worth watching Pak game now.

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 16/0 (2 overs; target: 159).

 

[Umer Ishaq]

Too easy for SAF

 

[imshally81]

De kock gone

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Come onnn

 

[Kroll]

Wicket

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Out lol

 

[adzzy786]

Yesss!!!

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

Netherland strike.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Brain fade frm de kock

 

[Kroll]

Some more of the same please.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

These 2 Miller and Markram

 

[sweep_shot]

A few tight overs can bring things under control for the Dutch.

RRR is almost 8.

 

[sweep_shot]

QDK is gone.

Big wicket.

 

[Kroll]

Come on you Oranje, keep it tight.

 

[Suleiman]

Game

On

Pressure is always going to be on SA this game. Netherlands proved they’re a decent associate side that can be competitive with the lower ranked full members and had decent performance with the ball vs Pak and a decent performance with the bat Vs SA.

Win here is a bonus for Netherlands. Aka they will bowl with less fear of failure.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Netherlands need to ball that good length. Just do your job and the wkts will come . Dont give much away. Need the other ballers to assist and ball well to

 

[msb314]

SAF behind asking rate

 

[Kroll]

Saffers have some real firepower but these dibbly dobblies might trouble them.

 

[sweep_shot]

If Netherlands can get Miller out quickly, game on.

 

[7sins]

If Netherlands can get Miller out quickly, game on.

Before Miller they have to take out Markham bavuma and rossouw

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 22/1 (3 overs; target: 159).

 

[Justcrazy]

South Africa need 134 runs in 98 balls.

Netherland need wickets

 

[Kroll]

Oranje need to choke hold here, make SA take risks. And no more no balls!

 

[msb314]

Tight bowling

 

[Kroll]

Bowled too wide there, keep it tighter

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Almost 50/50 on the software

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 26/1 (4 overs; target: 159).

Dutch are doing well.

 

[7sins]

Spinners will be key here

 

[Kroll]

Need wickets, otherwise target no problem for SA.

 

[Kroll]

Bavuma will g for big shot soon

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Wake up boys at least the UK crew should be on here

 

[7sins]

Pakistan zindabad in the crowd lol

 

[msb314]

Wonderful
Bowling

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 28/1 (5 overs; target: 159).

Run rate is now below 6. Great stuff from Netherlands.

 

[Kroll]

Tight over here and things could get interesting.

 

[7sins]

Knew it after seeing the first Innings that this pitch is perfect for medium and slow bowlers

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Woww... Ned performance so far

 

[sweep_shot]

Shariz Ahmed (substitute fielder).

Did well.

 

[hamzie]

too expensive already

 

[sweep_shot]

Expensive over.

 

[Kroll]

Yessssssss

 

[imshally81]

Bowled Emm

 

[hamzie]

[GLORY OF '92]

Dwarf boy goner

 

[sweep_shot]

Wicket. Bavuma is out.

SA - 39/2 (6 overs; target: 159).

 

[msb314]

Gone!!!

 

[world cup captain]

Not today SA. Time to go home!

 

[GLORY OF '92]

These 2 and Miller then we are in the Semis

 

[light]

Lol, both PAK/BD praying that SA looses or Wash out game here. SA isn't helping their cause with these early 2 wickets. Can a miracle happen here.

 

[sweep_shot]

120 runs are needed from 14 overs. 8 wickets in hand.

Netherlands need some quick wickets.

 

[Justcrazy]

South Africa need 119 runs in 83 balls.

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

If there is any team in the world that can fess this up against the Dutch, it SA.
They look under pressure

 

[hitthestump]

Where are all the comments stating South Africa deserve to lose?

They did not target 60 in the powerplay against Netherlands. I thought everyone plays aggressive cricket except for us?
