2008/09 SA tour to AUS - ODIs and Twenty20s

[JK8]

Dude, the buildup is now, the match will probably start at 10.30 local time.

Dankie baaie, was not in the mood to calculate GMT and CAT times

Dankie baaie, was not in the mood to calculate GMT and CAT times

That's why I included all the times for all the matches in the OP.

 

[rwenzori]

Yay! McKenzie not playing

 

[Sparky_za]

Man, this Warner dude is just smacking us silly.

 

[The_Right_Honourable_Brit]

But SA pulled it back...182/9

 

[Sparky_za]

Yeah, once we had 2 wickets down the brakes really came on. Nice going guys!

 

[JK8]

But SA pulled it back...182/9

Still a tough score to chase...

 

[Sparky_za]

Nice wicket though... as with Aus, we just need 1 guy to pull it together and score at more than 2 a ball for a good couple overs. Gibbs going to make his comeback? I don't want to make any predictions.

 

[Sparky_za]

...lol... have those two commentators been smoking doob during the break? They laughing like school girls!

 

[Devill]

Good fight-back.

I think we have the batting to do this, but it will still be a task and a half... Would have felt more confident with smith there

 

[Sparky_za]

Umm... forget I mentioned Gibbs... epic fail for me..

 

[Devill]

FFS gibbs!

Bracken to Gibbs, OUT Gibbs lbw b Bracken 0 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

EDIT : Bracken to Gibbs, OUT, lbw!! Bracken bowls a full ball, Gibbs tries to flick off the front foot but misses and gets hit on the pad, the impact was outside leg stump, Gibbs is unlucky

Ok if it made contact outside off it is a bit unlucky.

 

[Inertia]

Speechless.

 

[Devill]

Tait to de Villiers, OUT, de Villiers is in pain! And he's out! Tait bowls a short of a length ball at 155.6 kmh, de Villiers tries to pull but is beaten by the pace of the ball, it crashes into his stomach and he winces in pain, he loses balance as he moves back and the bat hits the stumps, he's in a lot of pain and he hobbles back to the dug out

Ouch!

2/2..... This is not a good start

 

[Sparky_za]

Yeah... we are struggling... come on guys... settle in already...

 

[The_Techie]

I hope AB's OK, that looked extremely painful

 

[Sparky_za]

I hope AB's OK, that looked extremely painful

155.4km/h ...ouch...

 

[hj2k_x]

12/3.

 

[Devill]

Hilfenhaus to Kallis, OUT, bowled him! Kallis charges and makes room to hit down the ground, he misses and Hilfenhaus hits the top of off stump, that ball moved off the pitch a touch, Hilfenhaus does look a bit like Harmison, South Africa are in loads of trouble
JH Kallis b Hilfenhaus 4 (6b 1x4 0x6) SR: 66.66

 

[Devill]

4.4 Hilfenhaus to Duminy, FOUR, low full toss outside off stump, Duminy jams his bat down and hits the ball hard into the ground behind him, it bounces over the keeper and goes for four!
4.3 Hilfenhaus to Duminy, no run, full ball outside off, Duminy gets beaten
4.2 Hilfenhaus to Duminy, FOUR, Duminy moves forward to a length ball and drives dead straight, Hilfenhaus can't get down quickly enough and that's four

3.5 Tait to Duminy, FOUR, short and wide outside off stump, Duminy stands tall on the back foot, gets on top of the bounce, and lofts the ball over cover, he can play!
Tait goes round the wicket ...
3.5 Tait to Duminy, 1 wide, another one down leg side, Tait will have to rebowl that
3.5 Tait to Duminy, 1 wide, that's too wide down leg side, Ronchi moves to his right to collect
3.4 Tait to Duminy, FOUR, that's quick, 150kmh, Duminy gets into position quickly and pulls the ball through backward square leg for four, he didn't move his feet too much, he didn't have time to
3.3 Tait to Duminy, FOUR, full and wide outside off stump, Duminy leans forward and plays a lovely cover drive for four, superb timing and placement

Lol, go duminy!
