Paarl Rocks win by 15 runs

Man of the Match : Tabraiz Shamsi


 
Unbelievable never thought we will defend a target of 87.
 
HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! How the hell did we win?!?! :eek:

That is an incredible game, and an incredible result! I did not expect us to defend an 88-run target, but lo and behold, it happened! This has to go down as one of the closest escapes for any team in the entire leagues' section. In 7 years of being a semi-'prominent' part of the section, I don't think I have ever seen a team successfully defend a target so low, and at such a crucial situation. This is something truly special, I can not lie.

My dream of playing in the Champions League is still alive, but one more game away. @Murtaza96, bhai make it happen please :')

Please don't loose hope, I don't trust my batting unit either. :lol
Damn bro, you weren't kidding when you said that. o.O

TOSS: If we win the toss, we'll bat first and defend.

01-10 - Duanne Oliver and Kagiso Rabada
11-20 - Tabraiz Shamsi and Shaheen Afridi
21-30 - Jacques Snyman and Steve Smith
31-40 - Duanne Oliver and Tabraiz Shamsi
41-50 - Shaheen Afridi and Kagiso Rabada

No changes in the playing xi, but a slight change in the strategy. We've won three times while chasing, and only twice while defending. We've lost once while chasing and once while defending, so it could realistically go either way. We will bat first and try to defend because that's what I feel like doing. Also, Tshwane Spartans have won only one game batting second, so I'll try to play that to my advantage. Going to give Steve Smith five overs as well, and if his previous five overs are anything to go by, that shouldn't be much of a problem.
