2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Game 47 Second Semi Final South Africa v Australia 16/11 1900hrs @ Eden Gardens

[BACCS]

One of the all time spells from Hazlewood, unplayable

 

[The Passenger]

You could also bowl Haze out here, ensure he gets a full ten overs before any more rain, and get Cam Green in the field.

 

[Moonwatcher]

SA happy to just not lose wickets against Hazlewood

 

[Moonwatcher]

This performance so far today is why Australian selectors favour champions (even aging ones) over specialist sides.

 

[The Tilt]

Even more imperative to make sure we don't lose any overs for these guys.

At this point you'd probably just bowl Hazlewood out anyway (i.e. putting aside the possibility of a shortened match).

 

[Jamurp]

heck what a spell this is.

 

[BACCS]

3 maidens from 8 overs, insane.

 

[Longbombswans]

Broken finger areas for Miller.

 

[1990crow]

At least Hayden isn’t Michael Slater.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Broken f***ing finger areas for Miller.

EFA

 

[dumb]

Quiet restart, SA waiting for lesser bowlers

 

[The Tilt]

At least Hayden isn’t Michael Slater.

small mercies

 

[Bedi]

reckon i could've hit that for six too

 

[dogs105]

Quicker stuff working well. Maybe don't toss it up again Zamps

 

[AJ_2000]

Hmmm. Could be some strategic bowling of Hazlewood here. Get him his 10 before we start losing overs.

Spin not as threatening.

The way we've bowled Hazelwood all world cup is to leave him on 8 or 9 overs and bowl everyone else out that's way more expensive

 

[BACCS]

Zampa can struggle a bit against left handers, would be tempted to try Marsh for a couple of overs

 

[Jamurp]

250 would be competitive, these two would need to make 180 of them though.

 

[Moonwatcher]

This partnership has been quite impressive 38 from 42

 

[HK_Hawk]

C'mon Zamps. Just tie it up. No need to float tempting pies.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Why is Hazelwood off for

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Let’s bring on the bowler that gets smacked

Great plan

 

[Balls In]

Cummins and Zampa releasing the pressure

 

[dogs105]

Zevon...

 

[HK_Hawk]

FFS Pat. Way below his best this WC

 

[gtrxuone]

The outfield is really quick.
