Good batting...they are playing Botha cautiously.

 

[12thMan]

Bangladesh require another 34 runs with 5 wickets and 25 balls remaining

 

[bdchamp20]

We should've mixed up the line-up we sent all the big hitters up the order. We really missed Mashrafe today.

 

[bdchamp20]

Mushfiq trying to be Ash...

 

[saffer]

[saffer]

[Mohsin]

South Africa win by 13 runs

 

[Arifonthenet]

compare this t20 BD nat'l team to the Dhaka warriors....who I would say is superior

 

[BD-fan]

Good win by the SA. Congrats!!

The BD batting (comedy show) was great. Hopefully they will concentrate more on the ODIs (I doubt). T20 ruins what Siddons is trying to teach them on how to build an innings. These 20 year olds will grow up. I patiently wait. (we are expecting the 20 year olds to play like 30 year olds) Not happening!!

As for Dhaka Warriors, can you please take Ash with you please. He has scored enough runs for the tour already. I hope I will be proven wrong.

Arif bro,
SA bowling, pitch is equal to ICL teams bowling and indian pitch?

 

[Boi]

BD should of won that!!

poor batting!

Well done SA!

 

[Bangla Tiger]

This team really has 3 experienced players - Gibbs, ABCDE, Steyn

The rest just have experience of very few matches. Like Morkel has 10 tests and 25 ODIs, the most experienced probably of the rest. Some of the others with experience are 30 ODIs and less. This is a young team

they prolly still have more Test, ODI, and domestic caps than our boys.

 

[12thMan]

they prolly still have more Test, ODI, and domestic caps than our boys.

that is true but they were missing (injury or rest or some other reason)

G Smith, Kallis, Boucher, Ntini, AB Morkel, Prince, Amla, Nel.

If this was Paksitani selectors half of them would have been there and then we say no chance for youngsters. Pakistani selectors were tested during series against Zimbabwe and the squad for T20. But then I also think with so little cricket they have to give the seniors matches to keep them invovled

The bangladeshi's managed to self destruct and snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Ash is an afridi type batsman. All the talent but no brains out in the middle.

The saffers performed OKish considering that they had the crap end of the stick for most of the game. Firstly the ball moved around in the overhead conditions. Then the rain came and went and came and went. Then the overs were reduced to 14. which meant that they only had 6 overs after the rain delay.

All in all a good job.

Steyn performed well for somebody that has been sidelined for 2 months.
