ICC Twenty20 2014

Guptil got an even lower strike rate than Amla and yet they're still going at 8/over. So it's not the strike rotator, it's the guy at the other end to blame...
 
Now they have to really keep it extremely tight or they need to take another two wickets in the next 3-4 overs.

Actually it appears to be our batting tactics - we seem to try to build like a normal one-dayer than going for explosive up-front batting. It's odd...

Yep, We generally put pressure on our 5-6-7 to hit the ball out the park in the last 4 overs.
 
Really good over from Albie - shows his worth in this format of the game.
 
Crucial period coming up! Tahir to make or break this innings!
 
Tahir !!!

8.5
Imran Tahir to BB McCullum, 1 wide, OUT
BB McCullum st †de Kock b Imran Tahir 4 (4b 0x4 0x6) SR: 100.00

Imran Tahir to BB McCullum, 1 wide, OUT, well, well, Tahir's mood has improved considerably just one ball after that drop as he gets the big wicket of McCullum, he fires this one way wide of the stumps, McCullum has been charging out every ball, he is out of the crease and nowhere near the ball, de Kock had a long time to take the bails off

Massive massive wicket! That's a top wicket and a great comeback after that dropped catch. You think he dropped him on purpose to get McCullum on strike? :whistle::p

So often is it a bad ball that gets a wicket :)

Wasn't really a bad ball. Saw him backing away, pushed it a bit wide and got it to turn even wider so that he would miss it.
 
Think i found my double...
G: "Can someone explain the cult of David Miller to me? His domestic performances have been mostly subpar, extremely inconsistent with the occasional alignment of flat pitch & weak bowling allowing him to slog himself silly. His international record to date is similarly below minimum standards. And yet everyone worships the ground he walks on???" He's had a few incredible innings, which stick in people's memories.

He does amazingly well domestically in pro20's
