Seems they had a spot of rain.

 

[Creag]

3.36pm It has stopped raining completely!

...and now to mop up the deluge.

 

[Dan C]

4.15pm More news - the umpires are walking out to the middle, not sure if it's an official inspection or not. And overs have started reducing now.

So a reduced match, another 20/20

So a reduced match, another 20/20

That would be cool. I guess 35/35.

 

[Creag]

It's 40 overs a side, toss at 5.10pm, first ball at 5.40. Powerplay break-up: 8 + 24 + 8, with two, four and five fielders outside the 30-yard circle, respectively.

They're working their way up to 50 overs from the recent slap-and-giggle cricket!

SA XI: Amla ,de Kock, du Plessis, Rossouw, Duminy, Miller, Behardien, Morris, Abbott, Rabada, Tahir.

 

[Dan C]

That would be cool. I guess 35/35.

It's 40 overs per side. Bangladesh won the toss and will bat first.

3.4 Rabada to Tamim Iqbal, OUT, 138kph bowled'im, first ODI wicket for Rabada! Tamim played the wrong line there as Rabada pitched it up on middle and off, Tamim maybe thought it would hold its line but it went on to hit off.

Tamim Iqbal b Rabada 0 (13b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

13-ball duck for Tamim Iqbal.

3.5 Rabada to Litton Das, OUT, two in two for Rabada, not much of a celebration though, just a wide grin on his face! He angled it into the pads, Litton flicked it away but straight to Behardien at midwicket for an easy catch

Litton Das c Behardien b Rabada 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

3.6 Rabada to Mahmudullah, OUT, he's done it, he's getting mobbed by his team-mates for that hat-trick and there's absolute silence at the ground! Quick ball into the pads again, not as full as the one that got Litton, this one on good length and the batsman is beaten on the back foot in an attempt to work it to leg. Misses, hit on the pads, finger goes up!

Mahmudullah lbw b Rabada 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

I cannot believe I missed it Instead I was discussing sprinklers systems, flammable risks in cold storage and what-not What a start for the lad! Philander is going to struggle to get into the team if this lad performs.

He's lurking. Itching to create a clone. A pseudonym. Anything... :twisted:

 

[MickeyD]

Ban 40-4 (7.2/40)

Rabada 4/7

 

[Creag]

Gob smacked!!!

7.2 Rabada to Soumya Sarkar, OUT, another one for Rabada, probably the biggest one so far after Sarkar was counterattacling! It looked like and innocuous delivery outside off on length, and Sarkar simply chipped it to Duminy at cover. Low catch taken nicely

Soumya Sarkar c Duminy b Rabada 27 (27b 4x4 0x6) SR: 100.00

And here I sit reading about it!



...but that's what catch up is for I guess?

 

[MickeyD]

Get Shakib Al Hasan out and this will be a massacre.

 

[Creag]

They shouldn't give Tahir any reviews

 

[Drifter]

Gob smacked!!!





And here I sit reading about it!



...but that's what catch up is for I guess?

Yeah, all 7 mins of it.

 

[Creag]

Yeah, all 7 mins of it.

Thanks for bursting my bubble!
