Have Fun )@@( Stay Safe
BTW, lets just focus on the current match. Two overs remaining and Australia need another 20 runs (it was 25 from 3 overs, but Ngidi conceded only 5 runs in the 18th over). Warner is still there... along with Wade.
Warner is the key between an Australian win or South Africa as Australia need 17 runs from 6 balls and Warner is now on the non striker end and the match is on the line and it is really disappointing for Australia as i was expecting an easy win but South Africa just turned everything in the last 4 overs and now they have picked another wicket Shocked.
16 runs from 4 balls now it is an impossible task and i would have gone with South Africa to win as the odds were over 5 and i did not expect this turn over Grin.

What is there to LOL about?

How were you able to determine he is a medicore baller? Have you watched him play in any earlier international matches cause if he has not been seen by the SA team earlier then he cannot be classified as an average spinner. They might have not studied him.

Further an average spinner cannot take 5 wickets in a fluke while playing as a debutant. What this guy does today will be interesting to watch.

This is not the first time that Ashton Agar is representing Australia and I was just pointing out that he doesn't have any noticeable performances to date. He is noway near Nathan Lyon or even Zampa.

one good over could change a match but i already placed a bet for Australia to win the match and hopefully Australia will win this one.
South Africa is bowling really well especially Ngidi and Rabada in the final overs and they are frustrating the Australian batsman with dot balls and they are really mixing up the deliveries and they need 21 runs from 14 balls.
South Africa just took a blinder of a catch to dismiss Marsh, F du Plessis and Miller combination to take one of the best catches in cricket.

Edit:
Another wicket gone for Australia, things are getting tight and Warner is not getting strike, still need 20 off 10 balls.

Australia is chasing a score of 158 runs and South Africa is bowling well in the later part even though they are not able to pick up wickets and now Australia need 26 runs of the final 3 overs and the positive aspect for Australia is that they still have wickets in hand and Warner is still in the crease and one good over could change a match but i already placed a bet for Australia to win the match and hopefully Australia will win this one.

Ashton agar nailed it 5 wickets for 24. He is the main reason why SA could not even pass the 100 run score. Disappointing to see the whole middle order getting wiped out. It was just one sided match.

LOL.. A mediocre spinner such as Ashton Agar could destroy South Africa. That says a lot about the quality of their batting lineup. And their playing XI had star players such as Quinton de Kock, Faf du Plessis and David Miller.

BTW... the second match has started and this time South Africa is batting first. I don't have any faith in any South African batsmen other than de Kock. If they can build a total of 160+, then there is a chance for them.

At the same time, the South African Women's team is playing against the Australian women, at the Women's T20 World Cup.

Really poor start to this series as losing the top and middle order batsman so easily means their is no coordination and no discipline of batsman to stay on the pitch. OZ have just nailed this match as SA still require 122 runs in 51 balls and only 3 wicket left . Now only thing SA could do is play full 20 overs and make as much runs as possible.
South Africa is not in the greatest of form and i was expecting this to happen but they were struggling to make runs on the board let alone be competitive and that is what surprised me, Australia is in good form and they are continuing their form in this series and i am expecting a white wash from Australia if not we must see a miracle from South Africa if they are to win a match against a strong Australian team.
In recent years they have many on and off field issues which are hurting them and they will hurt them as well because they are not doing any thing for settling things quota system and too much inference from politicians killing merit system they will more down in coming days if they have solution of this all.

South Africa disappointed yesterday by scoring only 89 runs. They showed the poor performance and lost the match in  South Africa (Johannesburg), which is even more embracing. On the other hand, Australia captain Aaron Finch was very happy with his team performance and I am sure they will be seeing to white wash the series if SA continues to play the same poor cricket.

Total disappointment from SA team as they could not even manage to first score 100 runs also and secondly could not even bat for 20 overs. It was a one-sided match and OZ won by a huge margin of 107 runs. Agar magical spell of 5/24 just rattled the SA batting and they were in no point in the content of winning the match right from the way they started their innings.

Now it has reached a point of no return. More than 50 players (many of them with international quality) have moved to England under the Kolpak system, to play county cricket. Smaller numbers have moved to other countries, such as New Zealand and Australia. These players are not going to come back, even if they change the selection policy. Imagine a South African team, consisting of players such as Neil Wagner, Marnus Labuschagne, Simon Harmer, David Wiese, Hardus Viljoen, Morné Morkel and Duanne Olivier. They would have ranked among the top 3 sides.

Edit: 33 South African players are playing in English county championship currently. Out of them, 14 are on Kolpak. Another 19 were initially on Kolpak, but now have British citizenship and therefore doesn't need Kolpak. The remainder have retired from cricket.

Lahore was 41/0 after 4 overs and now they are 98/4 after 13. That means that they could manage just 57 runs in 9 overs (from 5th to 13th). The spinners made the difference for Multan, after a horrible performance form both the opening bowlers (Sohail Tanvir and Mohammad Irfan) proved very expensive.

BTW... Australia is batting first against South Africa and Steyn got Warner out in the first over.

Yes, we are missing out on other T20 matches which are going at the same time also with the league matches. It was an eventful first over by Steyn where he got one wicket but also conceded two fours, one before the wicket and other after the wicket. 

Also today we had  the first Women T20 world cup match and India- W beat Australia - W comfortably. There were not able to chase 132 runs and were all out at 115.

SA after winning toss decided to bowl first and OZ are really batting well with 160/4 in 17 overs . If they can manage to reach 200 then it will be a really good score and SA would really need their openers to fire in first 6 overs else it would add pressure later on . Finch and Smith partnership helped them to get a good base initially.

Lahore Qalandars off to a very good start against the Multan Sultans and they are 41/0 after 4 overs. Both Fakhar and Lynn are playing well against the pacers. The Multan captain has no choice other than to bring his spinners... So he has called in Imran Tahir to bowl the 5th over. Shahid Afridi is also playing for Multan.. and he can be handy with his leg spin.


Both the openers are gone and Qalandars are struggling with 3 wickets down. I have analysis the pitch and it will support the spinners. As soon as Sultans put on spinners they have managed to get the wickets and put the brake on the runs.
Also I found that Qalandars do not have any spinners in their team and this will hurt them badly when they come out to bowl. Their team selection does not look good.
