Bavuma to lead South Africa at T20 World Cup, injured van der Dussen out

The same squad will play a three-T20I series in India before travelling to Australia for the World Cup

No clue why we would take Parnell over Jansen

 

[stefan9]

Because Parnell is the better t20 player currently. Jansen is currently going at 9.5 in his t20i career.

Suck it India...

Lucky for them. Afghan had it in the bag, but two full tosses

 

[L-Dog]

Do yourself a favour and watch Afghanistan vs Pakistan semi final of the Asia Cup. Crazy finish... Love the passion of both teams and depending on the pitches in Aus think both are in with a shot for the World Cup

[Agent_Smith]

That was an epic fail. Bowling that shyte.

Sri Lanka really did well this tournament. It will be interesting to follow them in the world cup.

Sri lanka fully deserved this asia cup. Fantastic performance

Damn. I did not think Sri Lanka had a hope in hell.

Curious what will happen when a player, after being conditioned to do so for many years, absent-mindedly rubs some gob on a ball.

Curious what will happen when a player, after being conditioned to do so for many years, absent-mindedly rubs some gob on a ball.

Same as what happens with ball tampering through other means if the umpires spot it. 5 penalty runs to the opposition and a visit to the match referees office.
