The runs are flowing…
Now we need a miracle
Lyk nie goed nie, geen paaltjies nie, hulle kolf gemaklik.
Al wat ons nou op kan hoop is ‘n choke deur NZ, want dit lyk nie of ons die ouens kan uitboul nie.
Should have included Beuran Hendricks, he has some X-factor that Lobsy sorely misses
@ MacroBull:
No Mac,
You need wickets.
A fair way to go yet. A game evenly poised.
Sit maar Tahir op, hoop hulle gooi hul paaltjies weg.
One down… nine to go…
NZ 57 / 1 after 7.1 Overs
@ cane:
Yep, I think powerplay overs are key there, Guptill getting out is a blessing for you guys, the game is set up nicely for Anderson and Brendan.

Maklike game om te wen vir NZ, ons kort nou ‘n bouler om die game te draai met ‘n paar paaltjies.
Golden arm Albie
Who knew?
Mooi so Immie…
Wicketttttt
McCulum gone!
@ grootblousmile:
Man……………… that’s a good wicket for SA to get so cheaply.
Morne Morkel gone for 16 in one over. Wtf
Daai ou moet bykom
See Steyn only went for 1 run and still has 3 overs left
Seems like we need to get rid of this Williamson guy
He seems to be causing the damage
Macullum pint sized player giant sized arsehole is gone.
Eish dropped but the stumping thankfully came, NZ under pressure now, good last few overs here from us.
Hoekom speel Vern nie T20 nie ?
Kane doing a Duminy.
At least…………………………I hope he does.
Leaking easy runs now… we need quick wickets otherwise it’s tickets…
8 paaltjies, kolf nog gemaklik, NZ se game om te verloor.
NZ 89 / 2 after 11 overs
@ Gumboots:
SA have the runs in “The Bank” Gummy.
Still anybodies game.
Game gaan so 2 overs te lank wees vir ons. Groot verskil tussen 81 van 52 en 81 van 40.
@ cane:
Proteas need to keep it tight and put pressure on… Runs coming too easily though…
Morkel needs to fake an injury
Faf moet Steyn nou maar uitboul, game is so te sê verby na al die sesse van Morkel se swak boulwerk.
