Sorry, Warner, but I rather hope that hurt.

Hmm.

Throughout the IPL here, and the first stage, the overwhelming majority of games (80-90%) have been won by the team who scored more in the power play. Which is SA.
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?

Finch won’t be.
The interesting thing is that we are looking at under a run a ball.

If they play every ball on it's merits, they will probably get there without losing a wicket.

But that won't happen. The Aussies need.to dominate.

Why did Marsh try that? There was no need for the big swipe there.

Because, if you are playing against interior losers, you need to show them that they are inferior.

Smith cuts Shansi millimetres past his leg stump and Sandy tells me this game isn't abou luck.

Smith playing perfectly.

He understands how to win this.

Fancy SA to take this.

Big grounds and slow wickets - don’t think there’s going to be enormous highlight reels of this comp

Aussies have settled down and now understand that they need to win the game rather than make any stament of superiority.

It's not a big total, so, if the Aussies play sensibly, they should win this easy.

No pace to work with on a big ground - 120 suddenly not a bad score

Again, at under a run a ball, the emphasis should have been on ticking it over rather than rubbing our noses in it.

I still don't believe we can win this, but it's good to push them close.

It’s heading more towards you lot. 14 off 9. Slow pitch. Will come down to the last couple of balls.
