Bloody Yorkshire.

South Africa have thrown them a right curveball here.

Cracking start. Lost the toss and bairstow has gone first ball.

Think we can have a bit more faith in them than that.

Give it another over at least.

Can see these two having to open up against spin most games now.

Back in track

Had a large bet for England to get 320.5+

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #127 on:** May 30, 2019, 10:58:58 am »

I'd be tempted to play Roy in the Ashes. If he comes off he'd take the game from them in no time and we don't exactly have rock solid openers as it is.

This annoys the hell out of me. England have won their last 9 or 10 ODI series, it's not a hype train whatsoever and they are favourites for that reason. Thats not saying they're going to win and an early wicket doent change a thing.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #129 on:** May 30, 2019, 11:16:19 am »

South Africa need wickets sharpish, otherwise they could be chasing 400. They're going in excess of 6 to the over and the power hitting hasn't even begun.

Robinred · « **Reply #130 on:** May 30, 2019, 11:16:31 am »

Good toss to win - the wicket’s got inevitable damp in it but will improve throughout the day as the temperature climbs.

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #131 on:** May 30, 2019, 11:57:20 am »

Roy and Root gone in successive overs. Bugger.

111/3 off 20. Very much in the Garry.

mc_red22 · « **Reply #132 on:** May 30, 2019, 11:57:45 am »

England piss poorly losing 2 wickets in a very short space of time again. First Roy goes needlessly and now Root.

CheshireDave · « **Reply #133 on:** May 30, 2019, 11:58:09 am »

Well it was going well...

Kekule · « **Reply #134 on:** May 30, 2019, 11:58:40 am »

Recover from a bad start, look like they’ve got themselves into a position where they could accelerate, a couple of loose/silly shots, lose both set batsmen and have to build again.

Innings back in the balance.

Could do with Morgan and Stokes sticking it out for 10 overs or so. The worry with this England side comes if Buttler is in a bit too early and doesn't score then the wow factor goes a bit.

On the flip side, it'd be good for some of the 'tail' to get some time in the middle. We seemed to have a lot of {insert massive score here] for 3/4/ in the last series.

Frank Becton · « **Reply #136 on:** May 30, 2019, 12:16:50 pm »

England may need Stokes and Ali to perform to get a good score, both have been hit and miss lately with the bat.

Welshred · « **Reply #137 on:** May 30, 2019, 12:27:36 pm »

If England can go at 6 an over for the next 10 it takes them to 210. With Buttler in around that time 350+ is still possible. Morgan seems to be accelerating a little at the moment as well.

Elzar · « **Reply #138 on:** May 30, 2019, 12:29:34 pm »

Anyone fancy giving a little summary of the morning? the BBC has just been saying "An England collapse is always round the corner, but this England team is different" in about 40 different ways all morning.

Was just about to say the same, at least with Ali you can look back at that 100 off 50 odd he scored last summer as some kind of show of quality, I can't remember the last standout innings stokes has had.

vagabond · « **Reply #140 on:** May 30, 2019, 12:38:53 pm »

You should be doubling your score after 30 overs, especially if you are only 3 wickets down. 340 should be the aim here.

If you can use Firefox then get the HLS.js Playback add-in (its plays Acestream in a browser) then use this, it is brilliant quality.

Stokes needs to get himself out now, or at least start smashing it round the ground. 15 overs to go and this is where you want Buttler coming in.

Fiasco · « **Reply #145 on:** May 30, 2019, 12:58:04 pm »

England are again on for 350 plus here but they've not been at their swashbuckling best. That's down to South Africa having some quality bowlers and Du Plessis being smart in the middle overs by rotating his spinners and taking a bit of sting out of the game.

Still, Morgan is set and Buttler is in next. This is a really good patting pitch so that 350 score will be needed.

Those wonderful innings of his where he did smash it round the ground are few and far between these days, sadly. Hope he can rediscover that form.

Not sure what a good score is here ...

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #148 on:** May 30, 2019, 01:06:29 pm »

Tahir looks such a dick when celebrating someone being caught on the boundary!

CheshireDave · « **Reply #149 on:** May 30, 2019, 01:07:13 pm »

Great catch that is from Markram.

Buttler in now with 13 overs to come.

Chakan · « **Reply #150 on:** May 30, 2019, 01:15:40 pm »

We're not doing very well. Gotta get a few wickets quickly to disrupt the batting.

Fuck off.

Buttler caught in about 4 minds and plays on.

Need to post at least 310 here.

Welshred · « **Reply #156 on:** May 30, 2019, 01:27:53 pm »

That's huge for SA. 350/360 now turns into about 320.

Circa1892 · « **Reply #157 on:** May 30, 2019, 01:28:02 pm »

Interesting to see how this goes now. I'd have SA as marginal favourites now.

This works great on Edge and some add-in for Firefox as in my earlier post, not sure about IE etc.

Not getting much over 300 here. Batsmen getting 50 and then getting out with no-one (as yet) getting a big one, there’s a lot on Stokes’ shoulders now.

England are going to have to bowl well.
