175 would be an excellent score. Come on Miller
Dot ball. Cry:
A 4 it is… 170 is up, 1 ball to go
SA 172 / 4 after their 20 overs.
Not bad
172. Good score. SA have a fighting chance with some good bowling. Unfortunately I have to go out now, but Goooooooooooo Proteas
Competitive score…not great but good enough to win imo.
172-4
Hope we have enough.
Bowl smart now.
well done blomme! 172
@ robzim:
Yip when I started to watch just as Faf went out, thought we may still get 190. Still a good score though but India could still get this.
If Faf or AB never went out think we would have got the 190. Now we need to bowl tight.
Come on Proteas lets do it…
Why no slip in the first few overs. Why Faf?
India 14 pff the first over they go on like that we don’t have enough.
Ouch…. Not a good first over…. Pressure from ball one is needed…
India 14 / 0 after 1 Over
Don’t think we have enough. So far it looks too easy for India.
The first six overs determines the game…
Vodacom Cup final score: Blue Bulls 54/7 Falcons!
23 from 2 overs not great bowling from us.
@ Puma:
Still early – but very poor bowling…
Too many easy runs…
Short and wide bowling… You need to attack the stumps…
Six off Steyn – half trackers…
We need to pull this back very quickly… this game is running away from us…
Our bowling so far is crap..
Raining fours and wides…
Short bowling… where is the captain…
@ Gumboots:
Yip very poor bowling so far.
@Gummi
I see those idiots mixed up their dance moves this time, instead of looking like fools doing the gangham dance they ended up doing a rain dance that cost them. Cost me as well, because against my better judgement I went and picked them, although I have predicted an India v Sri Lanka final from round 1.
Let’s see if the Proteas make it 0/2 for me in the semi’s
Phew wicket… 👿
@ Gumboots:
Don’t think there is a captain af the moment don’t seem that way to me. Hope we start to get our bowling right. As I say that Faf takes a carch. One gone hope this is the turn around for us.
Wicket wide what next…
@ nortierd:
Going to be very tough…
