How good is de Kock

 

[Moonwatcher]

West Indies could have eliminated England.

Solid Saffa start here, they're absolutely campaignering the Poms.

Solid Saffa start here, they're absolutely campaignering the Poms.

How did you work campaignering into that sentence?

 

[Moonwatcher]

Oh dear

 

[Moonwatcher]

Ball touched the ground IMO

 

[Moonwatcher]

de Kock not out

 

[Moonwatcher]

Fancy giving de Kock two lives.

 

[Moonwatcher]

England wouldn't be cheating would they?

 

[PoopingHindi]

should have dropped that.

 

[NYRB]

Yep teams I reckon in future will me more game savvy, and look to not catch players who are struggling to middle it.

 

[NYRB]

Would SA tempted to drop Hendricks?

 

[NYRB]

One senses spin will have a big role to play at St Lucia.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Party's over

 

[PoopingHindi]

SA have stopped.
England very good out of the power play again.

man I hope Klaasen gets going.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Terrible run amazing throw

 

[PoopingHindi]

crud

 

[NYRB]

Klaasen hasnt fired this tournament.

 

[Moonwatcher]

SA might not make it to 250

 

[akkaps]

Lack of awareness from Klaasen. should have sprinted off as soon as the misfield happened. Miller was already half way by the time Klaasen started the run

 

[PoopingHindi]

SA might not make it to 250

250 is probably out of reach now.

 

[NYRB]

World teams have figured Klaasen a bit out over the last 4-5 months.

 

[NYRB]

Markram, Hendricks ive been saying for a while arent suited for this format of the game at the top level.
