What's new

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

Netherlands gna find it hard now. Needed cooper to stay In. I feel they are 10-15 runs at this point than where they shud be
 
Unless Holland really smash these last 4 overs, then definitely curtains for Pak, not that the Dutch had any real chance of winning this match.
 
Come on, hit some sixes

Edit: Yessssssssssss
 
159 target, not perfect but at least something to bowl at.
 
WOW! Netherlands have really given themselves a fighting chance at this with their batting.

To add icing to the cake, they probably have the best bowling attack with GENUINE pace from the associates. :aag
 
160 is gettable on this pitch but Netherlands go out with some positivity and momentum with those 2 sixes.
 
Dutch just need to keep it tight, not make any silly mistakes and not bowl wides and no balls. They could be in it.
 
I reckon NL are 15 short here. A 175 target and they would be in the game big time. SA still firm favourites here.
 
Netherlands are 40 short, I feel. Game should be over in 16 overs. QDK masterclass coming up.
 
What a slap in the face to Hasan Ali, please..

At least he won his country a tournament only a few years ago, just stop.

Sure but his downfall has been remarkably bad. I am merely pointing out that Rabada also is having quite a bad downfall from being a great bowler, as Hasan once was.
 
Ironically p much the same score Pak had Vs India, that was 159, they are at 158.

I bring it up because our fate is possibly linked to this game without knowing the Zim v India result.

They have a real good chance still, albeit 10-12 runs short imo. Pressure is stacked up Vs SA, they broke under pressure with the ball save for Nortje. Dutch got out to nothing balls except for the Nortje wickets.
 
Well if Pak were chasing 159 i reckon netherlands would be fav at half way mark. However, it’s possible they may be short as these boundaries are really small. However it’s a fighting target and I was hoping they’d score 150+ at the start so I’m pleased with that. Now fingers crossed they bowl themselves to victory and give Pakistan one step into the semis.
 
Great spirit by Netherlands, at least they went fighting. SA should win but Netherlands deserve an applause..
 
Dutch need to get the job done as Zimbob not going to do anything
 
LOL what is up with Saffers and the name Van?

Three players in their national team itself with the same name, is it our version of Ali and Muhammad?

Van is a Dutch name.

It means those South African players have Dutch origins.
 
South Africa should chase this. Quinton de kock is one hell of a minnow basher for a reason. :inti
