Guest Moomintroll Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 222-6. England can chase that, but it won't be easy.Usually a high scoring ground so might be a good chase. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Roy out for 7, thought Shamsi had been caught sleeping but he finally took a really good catch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 England 81-1 after just 7 overs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 England 111-2 at halfway, 11 ahead of where SA were at the same point. The Saffers really needed that wicket of Buttler to try and put the brakes on England's scoring rate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 England at the moment look like they should get there with overs to spare, never mind balls. But we know how the first match ended up in similar circumstances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 England stalling a bit at 147-4 from 14, Malan going for 11 from 12 balls. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Stokes in the game now, after Morgan had blasted England back ahead of the game. 17 needed from the last 2 overs. England's only previous successful 200 plus run chase in a T20 was also against South Africa. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 And another twist as Stokes holes out to Hendricks with the first ball of the 19th over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 And Pretorious drops Ali 2 balls later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 But Ngidi then bowls two full tosses to Morgan who treats them with the contempt they deserved. He's on 55 from 22 balls without hitting a 4. Dropped by Pretorious now, tough chance tbf. Scores level with 6 balls left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 A brilliant 3 match series, and the 1207 runs scored is the highest for a 3 match series in T20 international history. Both sides averaged over 10 runs per over for the series. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a lot covered in it, including a South African analysis from Christo Buchner (sp?) which is well worth a listen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting to hear him tell the story of how he caused himself to have a stress fracture of the foot, all because he had a sore toe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Did that pitch not use to have a random tree on it??Not sure, I know Canterbury used to have one.Same flooding happened last year, and also in 2007, which they reckoned took them 9 years to recoup their losses from cancelled games. Hopefully this is early enough that they can get sorted in time for the season starting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Little bit of moisture in the pitch at Worcestershire...Umpires have called a pitch inspection for 12, and are taking an early lunch. I’m hopeful of some play today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
