[MRSN]

that was mighty from Duminy.

 

[MRSN]

133/2 after 17

 

[sehban]

even though t20 ratings are highly volatile, if Pakistan becomes no.1 it is still quite an achievement as this is one format Pakistan has been extremely consistent and under Hafeez they have shown a marked improvement

 

[sehban]

141 after 17.5

 

[sehban]

Come on South Africa make 170

 

[sehban]

misfield for four...145 f 2 after 18

[sehban]

[sehban]

156 f 2 after 19.1...Come on make another 14 runs

 

[Alamgeer]

du plessis's innings is dubious.

 

[sehban]

Since Hafeez has taken over, Pakistan's form in T20s:

vs Srilanka in Srilanka 1-1
vs Australia in UAE 2-1
Semi Finalists in T20 WC ( Beat NZ, Bangladesh, Australia, and South Africa)
vs India in India 1-1
vs South Africa in South Africa 1-0
vs West Indies in West Indies 2-0

Overall record: Played 16 Won 11 Lost 5 Winning Percentage 69

One thing to note Pakistan has played no minnows in this time frame...

Keep going Pakistan

 

[sehban]

163 f 3 after 20 overs...a very competitve total especially considering this series, but this wicket looks a belter

Get Jayawardene and Dilshan early, the game is South Africas

 

[The Rock]

Cannot believe Philander not playing for South Africa but participating in Tamasha CPL

If SA wins this will be 1st time a team is whitewashed 3-0 in Tamasha format
