England tour to SA: 2015

[Neoprod]

England won the toss and will bat first.


South Africa XI
AB de Villiers*, KJ Abbott, HM Amla, F Behardien, Q de Kock†, M de Lange, JP Duminy, F du Plessis, Imran Tahir, DA Miller, M Morkel, CH Morris, K Rabada, RR Rossouw, D Wiese

I thought they're letting us play with a handicap when I saw the "South Africa XI" has 15 players in it

England XI

JJ Roy, AD Hales, JE Root, EJG Morgan*, BA Stokes, JC Buttler†, MM Ali, CJ Jordan, AU Rashid, DJ Willey, RJW Topley

Duminy and Behardien to share 5th bowling duties I guess.

May see some of ab's filthy medium pace as well.

Its probably better for us to bat second given the makeup of our team.

 

[Agent_Smith]

Lol

0.1 Morris to Roy, 1 wide

 

[stefan9]

Great start by morris....

 

[Creag]

Any brave predictions on the score the Poms will get? I reckon about 325 - 330 ... but think this might be somewhat short.

 

[Skimmie]

I fear a bit for our bowling today

 

[WaxLyrical]

Great start by morris....

I believe Morris is the answer to our allrounder problems.
Needs to be mould himself as the next Shaun Pollock.

We tried McLaren and it didn't work but I'm sure this bloke can do it.

 

[SinghDude]

i will go 287

About 500

 

[Creag]

A tidy over by de Lange.

 

[Creag]

About 500

At the present rate, hey! there is every chance of that. I see they are saying that this pitch might be a bit of road.

 

[Garson007]

Shocking team.

 

[Dan C]

England RR 10.66

 

[Creag]

Shocking team.

The English? Actually, I think it's quite a good team they have.

 

[Drifter]

Eina bliksem. BUT, 'Might they live to regret that decision if there is something in the pitch for the bowlers?' Fear not! This is Bloemfontein. There's never anything in this pitch for the bowlers. Yosemite Sam could score a century here." Thanks for the intel, Bez. Yosemite Sam had a blunderbuss, though, so he could pretty much do what he wants"

 

[Agent_Smith]

Tahir will pull things back. Problem is, even if he goes for 3.5 - 4.0 an over but the seamers are still going at 6 or 7, it's going to be in vain.

I feel I was hard on our boys...I'll reduce my guess to 460.

 

[Wall]

Is the capt. gone bonkers????

Change the bloody bowlers

 

[Skimmie]

very average bowling. No line and length
