Very nice way to start the tournament :). Could perhaps have pushed on with the runs a bit more towards the end but the total seemed fine in the end! Tahir going for runs is a bit worrying but hopefully he'll find his way on a more suited pitch.

Yea well bowled Stuart Broad, and well batted Stuart Broad as well.
 
Wow. Great performance by team, but bowlers didn't quite do well except the two-three guys. Certainly did not expect Eddie Leie to perform like that. Anyway, it's too early to judge. Let's hope for the best. Go Cobras !

Dropping Eddie Leie and Daryn Smit for David White and Simon Harmer. Hopefully we give a good performance this time.
 
We were very tempted to bring in another spinner given the pitch but I think we've got too strong a pace lineup to drop anyone without getting a good look at them just yet, therefore the Knights will be unchanged :).
