Most ridiculous catch I've ever seen.

Fucking hell

What a catch that was, that's one of the greatest i've ever seen.

Kekule · « **Reply #287 on:** May 30, 2019, 05:12:13 pm »

I don’t think Stokes can quite believe it either!

What, better than the Stokes catch in the Ashes when Broad destroyed the Aussies?

Did you get a nice letter from the Queen last birthday?

Frustrating. On a train and can’t see the catch you’re all talking about.

Their roles within the side are completely different.

Yes I realise that. But Willey is one of the only bowlers in the world who gets a bit of swing out of the white ball. Think him opening the bowling with Woakes, with Archer coming on first change was the way to go.

I thought this was a belter from Kieron Pollard in the IPL but Stokes is even better.

Already been canned by Star Sports

Yeah saw that. One minute there was like 5 videos and then all blocked. They're on the ball!!

CheshireDave · « **Reply #298 on:** May 30, 2019, 05:28:37 pm »

Fair play to Plunkett. Done his chances of staying in the side no harm today. 2 wickets now and only gone at 5 an over. Tidy.

He doesn't get people out though. Plunk does in his role.

If it's a UK train it's on the BBC live commentary page.

Ending with a whimper. Terrible performance for SA batsmen.

It's definitely a much harder pitch than the comms have given it credit for and I think the difference has probably been you missing Steyn and us having Archer - ie someone with serious wheels.

While the pitch might be a bit harder to bat on, the shot selection from some of the batsmen really can be questioned.

We do miss Steyn though.

A really good clip of that catch on the BBC.co.uk live feed

England have marmalised South Africa here.

Need to keep their nerve now...

Kekule · « **Reply #310 on:** May 30, 2019, 05:36:34 pm »

Good start for England. Stokes will feel part of the team again, runs, wickets and some superb fielding.

Onwards.

Chakan · « **Reply #311 on:** May 30, 2019, 05:37:58 pm »

Ah well, not the best performance ever. Gotta just pick ourselves up from here.

Well done England.

Robinred · « **Reply #312 on:** May 30, 2019, 05:39:00 pm »

Impressive outcricket from England, notwithstanding two or three ricks from Buttler behind the sticks.

Check YouTube mate. Normally someone will have extended highlights up. Not yet. But soon.

Welshred · « **Reply #314 on:** May 30, 2019, 05:42:13 pm »

Great performance from England. Did enough with the bat to put it out of reach then bowled and fielded brilliantly.

The reaction from some people on social media when they didn't score 350 and SA were slightly on top has been embarrassing though. This team is outstanding and are favourites for a reason, every single one of them that plays. You dont change what has been a winning formula for 4 years just as the tournament is starting.

Never seen such a weak batting line up for the Proteas to be honest. Huge pressure on that top 5 to go big cos the rest won't to often!

Statto Red · « **Reply #316 on:** May 30, 2019, 05:44:02 pm »

Haven't been watching it[don't have SKY] but sounds like a good performance especially in the field.

Isn't this the first time England have beaten one of the top ranked sides, in the World Cup since 92?

dudleyred · « **Reply #317 on:** May 30, 2019, 05:44:32 pm »

Haha stokes saying if he’d have been stood where he was supposed to be it would have been a regulation catch

Said he had a panic on and glad it stuck
