South Africa (205/5) thrash Bangladesh (101) by 104 runs in Group 2 encounter

[jnaveen1980]

SA is looking to bat BD completely out of the game

 

[Kianig89]

Breathing Fiyaa are SA

 

[sweep_shot]

Poor fielding. BD are losing the plot after 2 good overs.

 

[sweep_shot]

Spinners should come in now.

Pace is too easy for SA.

 

[10sion]

Mehedi and Mosaddek need to bowl to the lefties. risky but worth trying.

 

[jnaveen1980]

SA looking very dangerous

That is the most impressive side. Bavuma's presence is the only one thing that works against them. Otherwise they have wide range of quality big innings players. Good spin and pace attack

 

[10sion]

I miss bavuma already.

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 42/1 (4 overs).

Going at a good rate.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

:6

 

[jnaveen1980]

Their jersey. Too much red.

 

[10sion]

50 up in 4.3 overs.

 

[jnaveen1980]

I miss bavuma already.

Bavuma in the crease is like bowling to only one batsman

 

[sweep_shot]

50 is up.

 

[Kianig89]

What a PP ruthless!

 

[10sion]

Their jersey. Too much red.

Because they bleed runs....

 

[sweep_shot]

Their jersey. Too much red.

This is not their main jersey. This is jersey #2.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

6666 again

 

[jnaveen1980]

Reza Hendricks should be playing

 

[sweep_shot]

Reza Hendricks should be playing

Reza or Markham should play instead of Bavuma.

 

[jnaveen1980]

I won't mind if SA wins the world T20. They deserve it. Solid team. They just have to niggle out Bavuma and bring in Reza

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 58/1 (5 overs).

Shakib should bowl.

 

[Kianig89]

SA aiming for 300 maybe

 

[jnaveen1980]

Here comes Athar Ali khan. Darling of BD commentary panel lol

 

[Kianig89]

Asian Tigers !!

 

[sweep_shot]

This is a good batting pitch.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Absolute mockery this. Bangladesh have no answer

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Rain rain

 

[Suleiman]

Bavuma showing why quota system is a terrible idea

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rain.. Feel for SA. This is one of the best T20 side they have ever sent even with Bavuma and the absence of RVD.

 

[sweep_shot]

Match delayed by rain.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Just a short passing shower

 

[7sins]

What's the weather forecast for this match ?

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Sky looks very cloudy. Would be surprised to see a massive thunderstorm wash the match out

 

[10sion]

Absolute mockery this. Bangladesh have no answer

This is a team that doesn't even try improving. At least Asif Ali says he tries to hit 100-150 sixes in the nets. No Bangladeshi batsman even tells that....no attempt whatsoever.

 

[alone1213]

Am from Sydney.I don't see anything but bright sunshine.Even if it rains ,it may be for few minutes.

Hey mr Kumar from Delhi call centre. Stop lying.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Radar showing possibly a thunderstorm for Sydney in next hour or so

 

[WengerOut]

SA does not have the greatest T20 bowling attack. They might bully average batting lineup, but against others i dont see any problem.

 

[Kianig89]

Rain

 

[sweep_shot]

As per weather forecast, next 2-3 hours have 60% chance of rain.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

15 mins of rain and now 15 mins to clear up

 

[sweep_shot]

Covers are coming off.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

As per weather forecast, next 2-3 hours have 60% chance of rain.

It will most likely be a stop start game . If they are lucky they might get a result

 

[sweep_shot]

It will most likely be a stop start game . If they are lucky they might get a result

Yup. Seems like it.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

So 20 mins approx out of the game. When do they start losing overs

 

[BunnyRabbit]

SA management has put Bavuma in a difficult position. Both the management and Bavuma himself knows he doesn't make the t20 team on merit and is only there as captain and arguably keeping an in form Reeza out. If he decides to drop himself, he will be deemed a coward. If he decides to keep playing, he'll be called selfish.

 

[sweep_shot]

Game restarts.

SA - 61/1 (5.4 overs).

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 63/1 (6 overs).

Powerplay is done.

I don't think he will be called a coward if he drops himself. that would be a pretty badass move.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Lol reviews lost already

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Bang wasting reviews

 

[10sion]

Another review wasted. unreal from Bangladesh.

 

[sweep_shot]

Good over for BD. 3 from it.

SA - 66/1 (7 overs).

 

[jnaveen1980]

lol

Caught behind appeal was crazier

leg before check was even crazier

pitched outside, impact outside, missing the stumps hahaha

 

[10sion]

Bangladesh in T20s - Can't bat. Can't bowl. Can't take proper reviews.

 

[sweep_shot]

Why was Mustafiz taken off? He was bowling well.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

Whens next rain due

 

[sweep_shot]

Where is Shakib hiding? He should bowl.

 

[10sion]

16 runs in last 3 overs

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 74/1 (8 overs).

Run rate has gone down a bit.

 

[10sion]

Where is Shakib hiding? He should bowl.

Match ups and all that jazz. 2 lefties batting so Shakib isnt bowling...yet.

 

[WengerOut]

So if an umpire has given OUT caught behind, batsman reviews, review shows no bat, will there be an LBW check? If so, what if there is an umpires call situation?

 

[light]

Man, what was ICC thinking? This whole tournament will be hit by rain in almost every match.

Also, why is Bavuma still captaining SA. He isn't even good enough to be in the team, let alone be the captain.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Not out i think. It has to be all 3 red.

 

[10sion]

QdK is a pleasure to watch

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 87/1 (9 overs).

200 is looking likely.

 

[jnaveen1980]

SA is entertaining. Come on one of you retire. Bring on Killer Miller.

 

[sweep_shot]

Is Shakib not planning to bowl?

This is over #10.

 

[10sion]

Both batsman batting at or over a SR of 150 and you still want Killer Miller....T20s have spoiled us.

 

[sweep_shot]

Match up is complete nonsense.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

50 for rossi

 

[jnaveen1980]

Not about strike rate. It is about the execution style. I just love watching Miller in full flow.

 

[sweep_shot]

50 for Rilee.

Well played.

SA - 91/1 (10 overs).

 

[10sion]

Match up is complete nonsense.

Not really. A lot of teams rely on it ad use it accordingly. Does that mean shakib shouldn't have a ball? definitely not what I am saying.

 

[10sion]

9 runs from 2 overs of Mustafiz

 

[jnaveen1980]

Klassen is not playing? Damn. He is a massive spin basher.

 

[Sarwar89]

Looks like match will be completed as thunderstorms did not arrive

 

[sweep_shot]

Not really. A lot of teams rely on it ad use it accordingly. Does that mean shakib shouldn't have a ball? definitely not what I am saying.

I know other teams use it. But, for Bangladesh, match up is not an option.

Miraz gave away 30+ runs in 3 overs. What good did match up do?

Shakib should've bowled an over or two by now.

 

[Kianig89]

200 defo looks on!

 

[10sion]

Shakib finally here to bowl

 

[sweep_shot]

Shakib is bowling finally.
