T20 World Cup Game 55 Final South Africa v India June 30 2400hrs @ Kensington Oval Barbados

[010203]

Aiden Markram and Kagiso Rabada were in the same South African side that won the 2014 U19 World Cup in the UAE. Markram captained that team too.

You could sense the pain in Harsha's voice when he said ''that powerplay went South Africa's way''.

 

[Plugger35]

Axar sent in 3 down.

It's Plan B from India but Axar is a talent.

 

[010203]

I've seen Nortje bowl more than 150 clicks live at the ground.

 

[010203]

Might be time for Shamsi to come on.

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

India is resting almost entirely on kohli and bumrah right now.

Kohli to get them a good score and bumrah to hopefully get some quick top order wickets

 

[Plugger35]

Axar swipes another one over the fence.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Get to 3/80 after 10 then 180 is back on the cards but at least SA have prevented anything higher.

 

[NYRB]

I Wonder if Shamsi gets sledged by opposition for being fat.

 

[010203]

Both sides will OK with that first ten overs.

 

[Plugger35]

Nicely poised at the 10 over mark.

Looks like Kohli wants to play the selfish anchor role pushing ones and twos so Axar needs to swing for the fence.

India have a good bowling line up beyond Bumrah

 

[010203]

South Africa need a wicket or they're chasing 180.

Does this stadium not do Standing room tickets or are the stadiums weirdly empty for a world cup final? It's not like it's a massive stadium

 

[icyflakes]

India have come back massively here - no wicket in about 10 overs now, they should feel like they can go ham soon.

Think it's a ICC rule for 100% seating

Seems to be working atm.

Ah right, makes a lot off sense given there's heaps of great standing room if you've got a spot in the stands

 

[010203]

This is a gem of an innings from Axar.

 

[Plugger35]

Axar smashes Rabada for six.

He is the new Jadeja.

 

[Moonwatcher]

He was safe IMO

 

[Moonwatcher]

OH WOW

 

[icyflakes]

Holy shit I thought that was safe as shit

 

[Moonwatcher]

de Kock and Buttler both with epic run outs to the opposite end.

 

[010203]

That is brilliant from QDK.
