Story South Africa's Journey to World Cup 2011 [C2K7]

Yes.... But what can say when the opposite team is South Africa.

Thanks for all supports...
 
SA does look strong enough to beat an promising side.. You could have had S.Erwine in though for Somerset. ;) Awesome presentation Shakthi as always. I still remember your previous awesome story. :)

OK..... I will try my best to get SOTM award.

Well, SOTM is just for fun and not to take it seriously.. As a writer, if we keep our focus only to entertain the members(readers), we have achieved the big thing. :) And I am sure, this story will achieve that with ease. Good luck :thumbs
 
Thank you Surenbhai. In your every reply, there is always something new to learn. This is great honor that you visit my thread and post a reply.

This is Somerset's current squad playing English County Cricket.
 
Day 1 : 2nd Session : South Africa vs Somerset



After the good start of 1st session by Somerset, they wanted more runs and that's why they played aggressively. Langer and Trescothick set good partnership and then middle order lifted responsibility. South African bowlers were struggling and gave away lots of extra runs.

Graeme Smith looking to take quick wickets after lunch but South African player Z.de Bruyn played well.

Langer missed a good delivery and got his off stump flying in the air. But he did his job.

Z.de Bruyn also scored 50 quickly and he was playing excellent shots. His back foot and front foot shots were attractive. He show African team how to perform.

But his bad luck. He mistimed a slower delivery and AB.deVilliers did no mistake to take the catch.

Nice 50 to Langer. Nice Update .
South Africa would want to clean up the tail quickly as this could get out of hand. its even at the moment
 
Langer played very well there for his half-century. The South African bowlers need to pick up these remaining wickets. Great works mate. Keep up the great presentation.
 
Somerset have really thwarted you guys. You will need to bounce back quickly.

Keep going mate a lot of potential here :)
