[CerealKiller]

Bavuma's injury a blessing in disguise

Surely they can't drop Hendricks now.

 

[Supreme General]

Oh yes Reece Topley

He only needs one hand

Dutt had been absolutely torturing Asalanka, well deserved

 

[CerealKiller]

Netherlands have an opening, but they will be ruing that missed stumping off Samarawickrama

Feel like this is heading for another "why on Earth did England bowl first" discussion.

They can and if history is any indicator they will.

Besides I don’t think it’s as straightforward a decision. You can’t drop one of your best batters in recent times who was also the captain because his backup came in and did well whilst having a history of inconsistency in the past.

It’s Wankhede; chasing here isn’t that tough especially once the dew sets in.

I’d even back England to chase 400 tonight.

Idk our players look shattered from the heat already

They might have to if they don't get HK out.

Understood, and they probably will drop him, but credit to Hendricks is due for becoming a lot more consistent over the past year, in what few ODIs he has played and especially in T20Is.

They shouldn't, but they will

I do hope for 1-2 quick ones here else the match will become increasingly one sided. At the moment SRL look to be crusing towards victory.

Should be an easy replacement for Quinny once he goes to get that bag.

Klaasen looks injured too. South Africa will also struggle in the field once the dew kicks in.

What on earth has happened to Wood? He's been bowling utter rubbish.

Jansen has to be the jammiest batter in international cricket at the moment.

Think it's just struggling with rhythm in ODI cricket. Played two ODIs this year before the WC. South African's probably like the pace too.

If this team didn't lose to the Dutch we'd be talking of them as the second favourites for the tournament.
