Minor Semifinal II - England Lions vs South Africa A at Lord's Cricket Ground, London.

@Dipak @Aggz @swirler - taking lineups. Dipak and Aggz to post the pitch type. :)
 
@Aggz you genius! We might not have won if we didn't make that change. What a stage to turn the tables against an opponent we had a poor record with. Dernbach, Briggs and Shahzad were brilliant and then Davies gave us a solid start, but it was skipper James Taylor who pushed us through, batted through a mini-collapse, and took us home with some help from Buttler. Too many run-outs though :p That's five in a row now and we need to make it seven. South Africa will be really tough, and we need to be at our best unless they choke if we want to get through.

Same team on a poor pitch. @Aggz to confirm
 
fearsome tweak

Oh man, what match that was! We completely dominated them. Great bowling by Shahzad, Dernbach and Briggs first up to restrict them to just 223. But what a timely knock the captain came up with, great stuff.

And again, we're looking in a good position. Dernback bowled quite superbly, but you also gotta praise Shahzad's effort for keeping the batsmen on leash.
 
Drugs they are Using DRUGS
 
Well that's a good start. After Elgar and Ingram had them moving on, Briggs and Dernbach struck and never allowed them in the game back again. Our spinners were supposed to rule, but the pacers did it instead - didn't allow them to push on in the death overs great stuff from them!
