South Africa vs Pakistan | 1st T20 | Johannesburg | 20-11-2013 | Pakistan Innings

[CricketAnalyst]

There may be play, and if there is play this will actually end up in favour of Pakistan.

 

[Robbie]

So how many overs are lost now?

 

[Lords]

oh yeah and the farmers love the vehicle

Thanks for the response. Its a surprise for me.

 

[BHM :D]

I think it's game off. Has stop thundering and is a slight drizzle.

Thanks for that mate. Let's see what happens!

 

[Steyn_Remover]

Im at the stadium wont come back at all

 

[Haroon786]

Hope that we get enough play for Pakistan to win.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

3 overs probably gone by now,doesnt look good as of now.

 

[wasimjunior]

Im at the stadium wont come back at all

What won't? Rain stopped or you talking about play?

 

[talha3]

Just give Pakistan one ball with the target of 6 to win!

 

[London_Lahori]

Seems like the rain has stopped or calmed and people are getting back in their seats.

Cut off time is 8.00PM GMT so we have time!!

 

[Nuekboi]

Match hoyega! Taaliyan bajao

 

[Hawkeye]

Cutoff time is half hour FROM NOW. If match doesn't start in next 30 mins, it's gone.

Covers still ON, but rain is gone/very thin.

 

[London_Lahori]

If Pakistan get 5 more overs what can we get realistically? 50?

 

[London_Lahori]

8 wickets left, 50 in 5 overs is chaseable?

 

[WNC]

Im at the stadium wont come back at all

The players wont come back? The rain wont come back? Or you wont come back (if you leave)?

 

[London_Lahori]

I'm optimistic about the rain going away!

 

[HASHAM2]

Rain has stopped
Hopefully Ground dry jaldi hoa
aur match start phir ho

 

[Robbie]

Reduced Overs would mean that steyn has only 1 over left now.

South Africa vs Pakistan | 1st T20 | Johannesburg | 20-11-2013 | Pakistan Innin

8 pm cut off point
So only 20 mins for the pitch to dry

 

[iRfaN_LA]

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Rain ki ma ki aisi ke taisi.

 

[London_Lahori]

Rain still falling not looking good

 

[Hawkeye]

Heavy RAIN AGAIN

Match won't be played again. SA Win.

 

[Sledger]

Rain decreased apparently, hopefully it's going to resume..

edit - nvm, showers restarted.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Match gone. Still heavy rain.

 

[London_Lahori]

Game over! Handshakes! Looks like that's it

 

[Hawkeye]

SA officially WIN.

 

[iRfaN_LA]

This might well be the game. Thanks Jamshed for screwing it up.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Pakistan lose on D/L

 

[London_Lahori]

Steyn and hafeez laughing and joking with each other!

 

[JustAnotherFan]

Wonder if they will bring the players out for one over?

 

[London_Lahori]

Sad way to lose, I thought we really had a chance here.

 

[PB]

Steyn and hafeez laughing and joking with each other!

elaborate please

 

[London_Lahori]

Anwar out next game and Ajmal back in please

 

[Haroon786]

Is game over ?

 

[Sherazkhalid]

cricinfo is saying soakers are working, so is it over or not yet?

 

[London_Lahori]

Shaking hands at the hand, Steyn comes out laughing and hafeez is smiling.

9.40 pm The rain has stopped and the super soppers are at work. I don't think we'll get most of the remaining overs in though. I'll have official word for you as soon as I can. cricinfo

 

[WNC]

According to cricinfo, it stopped raining

 

[Invasion 550]

What the hell guys, where are you watching this?

ESPN says the rain has stopped?

 

[London_Lahori]

They've shaken hands.

As per cricinfo

 

[Haroon786]

Pathetic way to lose, really not pleased, this is the highest level, such a lack of professionalism and will in this team

 

[GreenKnightRises]

So we lost. Last few overs from Bhatti and Tanvir cost us the game

 

[Robbie]

What is happening folks??

 

[Invasion 550]

We cant really blame anyone if we lose this.

 

[Haroon786]

Someone explain?

 

[Nuekboi]

Steyn and hafeez laughing and joking with each other!

Steyn: Thanks for the stats bump man!

Hafeez: No problem, yaar. I'll ask for management to arrange another tour to South Africa next year if you want!

 

[hashmist]

Whatmore sleeping at his job. It was his responsibility to make sure all players knew what DL target was for ALL overs. Pathetic. Fire him now!

 

[Invasion 550]

So frustrated with this rain ********.

 

[London_Lahori]

I hate this cutoff time thing though. If they could get the game started just 10-15 mins later why not extend the cut off time?

 

[BHM :D]

9.45 It's begun to rain again at the Wanderers and that is it. The match has been called off and South Africa win by four runs on the D/L method

 

[London_Lahori]

What is happening folks??

Game over. They've shaken hands.

 

[Haroon786]

So have they lost ?

 

[Runner Up]

21 : 41 Local Time, 19 : 41 GMT, 01 : 11 IST: The rain has stopped completely. The super-soppers are working on clearing the water. No official word on how many overs will be lost.

 

[Sledger]

Confirmed - SA win by four runs.

[mosh101]

What's going on?

 

[EarthBoltX]

Yep, it's game over, SA have won.

 

[London_Lahori]

Crapinfo trying to save face because they know they messed up on the last update.

 

[Runner Up]

It has started to rain again and the match has been called off. South Africa win by 4 runs according to D/L method.

 

[hashmist]

This really is the height of incompetence by Hafeez and Whatmore. Inexcusable.

 

[London_Lahori]

My last 10 posts have said the game is over. Why do people keep asking what's happening? Just read.

 

[Robbie]

Game over. They've shaken hands.

And yeah Crapinfo confirms it.

 

[PB]

The 4 byes at the end cost Pakistan the game.

 

[Sherazkhalid]

Its over we loose.

 

[Invasion 550]

We lost the match guys.

 

[yadunoe]

thanks to jamshed we have lost , needs to be dropped for a while now so he can work on his issues

 

[London_Lahori]

The 4 byes at the end cost Pakistan the game.

You can't pick that out. The poor bowling in the powerplay, the poor bowling at the end of the innings and Jamshed making up for missed time in test cricket were stronger reasons for the defeat.

 

[London_Lahori]

The one day Umar Akmal gets to come in at four and it's rained off

 

[Indiafan]

The 4 byes at the end cost Pakistan the game.

Nope, even if SA had only scored 149 ( no 4 byes) Pakistan would have lost by 2 runs as D/L par score at 9.1 would be 62/2

 

[EarthBoltX]

I can't believe how we're throwing blame around even over a luckless result like this. :/ Not worth it.

Unlucky. Lots of ifs and buts as to what may have been, but in the end there's no control over Mother Nature. We've been on the bad side of this system many times, just the way it goes I suppose. Never a nice way to end a match.

Doesn't really feel like a loss though, at least it's not as bad as you fellas have had it in the past with being KO'd in the WC twice.
