CRICKET: Nashua Cape Cobras supporters thread!

[Smurfatefrog]

Yup, i definitely would've selected Gibbs in the Cobras side tonight

 

[PostmanPot]

I LOLed.

 

[Luke7777]

Yip, I'll play Philander/Van Zyl too. Saying that, HG will probably score 70 of 30, take a stunning one hander and run out 2 batsmen. I'm not convinced about Puttick. No other keeper/batsman there ?

or maybe he'll get a duck and surprise nobody

Ok, I'm a Dolphins supporter but I must give credit to the Cobras for an amazing fight back at the end there. The lower order made the Dolphins work.

Part of the reason I think 20/20 is the poorest form of the game is that luck is so much more of a deciding factor than skill.

I think Sundays semi is going to go to the Cobras. They're due a bit of luck.

Good points, it is such a lottery, but I think loosing quick wickets during the powerplay was disaster for the Cobras and difficult to recover from there

Rubbish play by the Cobras - and I paid R50 to what such a disaster . In fact my friends and I left early when Kleinveldt was bowled for yet another duck

 

[Smurfatefrog]

And that's why they select Gibbs, he came off and he's more then likely won the match for them

Seems I had the date wrong on my crystal ball

 

[Nom Chompsky]

Yeah, go Cobras!!! Now they'll have to win in Potch (I think that is where the 'neutral venue' is) [The game is suspended atm, but it's basically over]

No, its in Durban. We get that advantage for finishing 2nd in the log

 

[PostmanPot]

Cobras won by 38 runs (D/L Method)

Gibbs jou beaut, don't listen to gdiza!

 

[SlyFly]

Wow D/L was quite kind to the Dolphins

[PostmanPot]

[Smurfatefrog]

Cant believe im stuck out of town tonight and have to follow online

Cant believe there are 2 ties!!!
Did Philander seriously take like 15 mins to bowl that last ball and then still get hit out the ground, just like Claude Henderson v Louw in the group game

 

[Stephen]

What the hell just happened cricinfo is wonky did Cobras win

 

[stormers]

can some one please explain what happend as cricinfo not making sense

 

[PostmanPot]

Cobras win.

Dolphins scored 4 in their power play tie-break over. Think they got bowled out. Jaya bowled first ball.

Smith run out first ball in the Cobras' reply, followed by Gibbs scoring 2 and then a 4.

Excellent!

 

[Luke7777]

Both games tied. Eagles and Cobras won Superover. Final in Saturday at Newlands

 

[stormers]
