The Seff Effrikans are famous chokers .

Which is why i said they are under more pressure than we are,India is the home nation and expected to win (more pressure as well).Both us and NZ are under much less pressure even though i believe India will still win it.
Will be very happy to be proven wrong

If India are feeling the pressure they’re not really showing it.
4/397.

If NZ wanna go to the WC final they better buy tickets.

I used to enjoy watching Dougie bat but he was never the same after John Snow found his weakness to the short ball in the Ashes.Entertaining cricketer and would have loved T50 and T20 when he was playing (T50 was in it's infancy)

Stoinis has failed to put an innings saving score together. Had plenty of chances.
Marnus will get the job done.
We will back our ability to chase. Hope they all contribute this time.

Go Oz!!!
Go Starcy!!!

And Patty hasn’t used Stoinis well so he hasn’t got the figures there either, Marnus was always getting the nod.
Winning your match up’s and everyone must field at the expected Ozy level.
De Kock has a lower strike rate against off spin so having Maxi is bonus we just need to hold our catches bcoz we dropped one off him in each of the first two games we lost that would have broken partnerships that mattered.

 

[Tucker]

Superb pressure from Australia pays off.
DeKock gone for 3 and the Saffas 2-8 in the 6th over

 

[Buttface]

Warner has come ready to play, great fielding really helps the bowlers keep the pressure on.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Perfect 1st 10 overs.

 

[Tucker]

Haze has been bowling like a demon.

 

[Buttface]

Got him, Gone!!!
Great catch Warner off Starcy bowling beautifully.

 

[Buttface]

Covers are on.

 

[Stevec]

Starc did it again wicket in the first over
So far Starc 7 overs 2-18 ,Hazo 6 overs 2-16
Sth Africa 14 overs 4-44
Only problem Capt Pat 1 over for 12
Our fielding great especially Warner and Marnus

 

[Buttface]
