England tour to SA: 2015

[sand_man]

1-0 England. Don't even bother coming out to bat. Rather declare while you ahead.

taking a good pummeling ....

 

[Creag]

37 balls have crossed the ropes with a further 13 clearing the ropes. No matter how good the lads believe their ability to chase is, they have already conceded too many.

I just wonder if the lads have the confidence at the mo to chase a 400+ score.

Good grief ... a WICKET for SA Stokes OUT

Stokes will feel that he missed out on a century here.

 

[Dan C]

7 down. Let's see if they can still get 400...

 

[Creag]

It isn't often that Morkel's return of 1/70 in 10 overs will be claimed as the most economical by the Proteas in ODI's.

England 399/9

That's a steep target

 

[Creag]

Exactly 8 an over to win. It's gonna be a big ask.

 

[AirWolf]

We got this - we kept them below 400 .

 

[Wall]

Prays to God far doesn't strikes at 30 and dead bats....

Thread is awfully quiet when we're batting. Looking really good right now. Both boys batting with real intent. Important to stay positive and keep ticking the ones and twos in addition to clearing the rope.

Brilliant review!

What's the statute of limitations regarding the comments to wicket ratio? :erm:

 

[pinball wizard]

If it wasn't (future captain) QdK doing so well, I'd be getting depressed.

 

[Creag]

Yep, a break in play looks imminent. The danger in trying to catch up is losing a wicket and pushing par score up.

 

[Creag]

Gifted runs. Poor effort.
