South Africa v Pakistan | 1st ODI | Centurion | 2nd April, 2021 | South Africa innings

[hoshiarpurexpress]

That is out.. Good catch..

 

[Hasan123]

Shaheen again stepping up. His reputation continues to grow.

 

[Rana]

De Kock is playing on reputation. I don't think he has had an innings of note in last two years.

He would gladly be dropped by South Africa

 

[BaaliSoda]

Faheem ashraf seems a much improved player from pakistan, these days. Contributes to the team in one way or the other.

That was a brilliant catch.

 

[Smbhayi]

Okay, its out..

 

[Sunzi]

First angle looks like it's floored TBH. Clearly bounces IMO.

 

[Mesozoic]

He's not as good as u think. Good experienced bowlers will always get him

Maybe you are right.

Always looks a million dollars while he's out there but gets out tamely.

 

[Sunzi]

Soft single bukwaas is silly IMO.

 

[Rana]

Im enjoying this modern day cricket by Pakistan....

 

[Mesozoic]

Don't see this Saffer lineup scoring anything more than 220 now.

Phehlukwayo at 7...

 

[Rafa]

Great bowling by Shaheen

 

[Mamoon]

Harsh decision. I would have given the benefit of doubt to the batsman.

 

[Hasan123]

Lol an average of 70 is ridiculous.

 

[Markhor]

Looks like they've just started to understand how to bowl on this slow pitch.

SA openers both gone trying to force the pace.

 

[shamaan]

What a catch

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Lights? Isn’t this a day match only?

Ah.. my bad. It is a day match.
Well teams are comfortable chasing these days i guess.

 

[Smbhayi]

Soft single bukwaas is silly IMO.

Didn't icc removes it from the game recently..?

 

[Rana]

Faheem ashraf seems a much improved player from pakistan, these days. Contributes to the team in one way or the other.

That was a brilliant catch.

The kind of guy that could fetch $500-700k in the IPL

 

[Abdurmirr]

This South African team has a big problem with giving their wickets away. Both De Kock and Markram played unnecessary shots after looking so good. If these guys shows a bit of temperament they would be in an ideal position but now 2 new batsmen are in.
On the bright side, Bavuma and Van Der Dussen just have to play a few overs until superstar Shahdab and Raul come on in

 

[BaaliSoda]

Improvised version of Wajahatullah wasti at the crease now.

 

[IAJ]

Maybe you are right.

Always looks a million dollars while he's out there but gets out tamely.

Just like Hafeez lol

 

[shamaan]

Defonitely carried right decision

 

[Gullycricket]

van der Dussen is the only class batsman in this SA team.Might be unpopular opinion but that's how I feel. This SA team is not so good as they appear

 

[Mesozoic]

Pandya took a similar catch recently.

 

[BaaliSoda]

The kind of guy that could fetch $500-700k in the IPL

Definitely better than the likes of Dan Christian (and few other aussies) despite doing diddly squat in IPL all these years, still gets paid loads of money (which is baffling to say the least) to be part of it.

 

[Hasan123]

A chance to build some dots and tight overs here.

 

[Sunzi]

Didn't icc removes it from the game recently..?

I'm not sure they did? I believe I heard that it is being removed for the upcoming IPL, however.

Comms here were placing emphasis on the soft-signal.

 

[Greenstorm]

Good variations by Shaheen.

Lambu bowlers are usually very effective in SA.

 

[Rana]

Well bowled Hasnain Cummins

 

[Hasan123]

Bavuma gone lol.

 

[Abdurmirr]

what is this batting

 

[Ahmed216]

Harsh decision. I would have given the benefit of doubt to the batsman.

Yes because u had a better view than both on field umpires

 

[Babu Bhaiya]

The kind of guy that could fetch $500-700k in the IPL

Faheem, not so much!! But Babar and Shaheen, even Hafeez would be among top earners!!


By the way, SA should realize this is not a T20

 

[Gullycricket]

Lol SA is force Lol

 

[Mesozoic]

What a shot Kaptaan!

 

[BaaliSoda]

Improvised version of Wajahatullah wasti at the crease now.

I didn't mean Bavuma, btw.

 

[Rafa]

What's going on

 

[Gullycricket]

SA cricket is a minnow.

 

[Markhor]

This is poor shot selection from SAF batsmen.

 

[IAJ]

That would have been six in India

 

[Omer2002]

Most worrying aspect is our batting...

 

[Rana]

Wow Pakistan on fire here

 

[Greenstorm]

One days are Hasnain's strongest format.

 

[Mobashir]

Harsh decision. I would have given the benefit of doubt to the batsman.

Surely. Do you think Faheem cheated here?

 

[Babu Bhaiya]

SA is practicing for WT20!!!

 

[Sunzi]

Temba wafting - giving it away!

 

[Mesozoic]

Good sensible cricket this.

Treating this like a 7 match T20 series with two T20 WCs coming in 18 months.

 

[Rana]

Marais Erasmus with a rare wrong decision

 

[Mobashir]

Great bowling by Hasnain.

 

[shamaan]

Extra bounce

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Awesome wickets. Keep it up boys cant let South Africa settle

 

[Sunzi]

Oooft that looked close!

 

[Ahmed216]

Thts a good ball to bowl first up. Attacked the stumps

 

[Amirforpresident]

Surely. Do you think Faheem cheated here?

Why would that be considered cheating? Faheem was telling the umpire he wasnt sure and to review it.

 

[Rana]

Beautiful bowling by these two btw.

 

[Gullycricket]

We deserve to be the 4th best team in ODI cricket right now atleast

 

[Omer2002]

Goood pace guys

 

[AAli98]

SA cricket is a minnow.

Let’s just hold fire until rabada nigidi nortje rough up Sunday league cricketers like Imam/Asif..

 

[Rana]

Its like the Test series all over again, get a couple at the top and watch the rest fall

 

[Markhor]

Inside edge but good bowling nonetheless.

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

This racial reservation in CSA is similar to caste based reservation in india where undeserving candidates get into places where they never belonged while the deserving ones keep ploughing the maize field.
No wonder both of them are struggling

Temba Bavuma is the worst South African batsman i have ever seen.

 

[Gullycricket]

Let’s just hold fire until rabada nigidi nortje rough up Sunday league cricketers like Imam/Asif..

Don't worry. Imam Fakhar play short bowls well. Keep faith.

 

[Amirforpresident]

Husnain 1-13 after 4. Ma sha Allah so happy for him.

 

[Mean&Green]

Mamoon gone into hiding right after the three quick wickets expect him to run back after pak start losing this

 

[Ab Fan]

South Africa need AB de Villiers back or else they will crawl their way to the levels below Bangladesh and West Indies.

 

[Omer2002]

Surely rauf to bowl the tenth over hasnain shud be used in small bursts

 

[Tubs]

Good bowling by the boys. Shaheen has been expensive, but got the first breakthroughs.

 

[Rana]

Why would that be considered cheating? Faheem was telling the umpire he wasnt sure and to review it.

No he was sure he caught it. And it was out.

 

[Abdurmirr]

I forgot about what a terrible fielder Asif is

 

[Omer2002]

Droppped damnnnn...asif

 

[IAJ]

Tough chance

 

[Mean&Green]

That was very easy it’s just this was amazing uncle he reacted so late still got both hands yet grasped it

 

[Gullycricket]

Mamoon gone into hiding right after the three quick wickets expect him to run back after pak start losing this

Don't think he will get a chance to do that. This series has a greenwash written for SA. Pak will sweep them

 

[Ab Fan]

Van der dussen dropped!

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Disgusting to see no Haider who should play every single Pakistan game

 

[Mesozoic]

That was not as hard as it is being made to look by Ramiz.

 

[Amirforpresident]

No he was sure he caught it. And it was out.

He was def signaling to the umpire that he wasnt sure

 

[MenInG]

 

[Markhor]

Like that Babar has two slips for the new batsman. Shaheen will bowl his inswingers, just needs to take a few away from the RHB or go straight on with angle.

Like that !

 

[Gullycricket]

Needed Imran Butt there
