MichaelRobartes Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Well done Sri Lanka. Outstanding chase, especially when you consider the batting greats they've lost in the last couple of years. My dream scenario for that group has come true anyway. Hope the weather doesn't ruin the last two games now as they're both winner takes all.

Looking OK at the moment - 71 required from 93 balls. What a throw to run out Morgan though, credit where it`s due. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted June 10, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 3 hours ago, Super said: Only rain can stop Aussies here Certainly looked that way for a while, but a big difference between the two teams today was we can bat all the way through the order. Australia looked poor and their heads soon dropped when we put on the stand, take Warner and Smith away and they will have real problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 South Africa out now. India v Bangladesh and England v Sri Lanka. Don`t think anyone would have predicted that at the start of the competition. Every chance for England now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maltshoveller Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Nothing better than seeing the worlds biggest bottlers get a stuffing Is there a team in world sport with less heart than SA (Dont say England football as they are just not good enough ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted June 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 SA had the best squad and balance across side and strength in all areas 4 of their batsmen in World Top Ten ! If you were a Saffer Supporter you'd be spitting blood !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Problem with SA's batting is that, as good as their top 4/5 are, once you get past that there's not a lot left. They've got a long tail, Morris was batting at 7 today which is probably a place too high, despite him occasionally being destructive. If a couple of their top order score big then they do well, if they don't then they tend to struggle. Admittedly they weren't helped today by what was probably the worst running between the wickets that I've ever seen from an international side. Compare that with India and England who bat a lot deeper. England bat down to 9, or even 10 if Woakes is playing (assuming Ball makes way).
