[RUDI]

Decent outing with the ball. Donald and Steyn are looking in good nick. Now for the batsman to chase down the target with 4 overs spare.

 

[TSPrathik]

team loses when you score a fifty, so you end up being not out at 49




aa good total to defend, hope we win this one

 

[Till Valhalla]

He scored in 46 deliveries.

 

[Sherlock Holmes]
