SA20 match 12 preview


 SA20 has another doubleheader today and the first doubleheader is MI Cape Town vs Sunrisers Eastern Cape at Newlands cricket stadium Cape Town.  This is the return from 2 days ago when the 2 teams played in Gqeberha.  

The pitch at Newlands has been on the slower side so far in the 3 games played at Newlands. I'm hoping today's game the pitch will play much better and have something in it for the batsman as it's been tough for them so far batting at Newlands. 

I think a score of 170 to 180 will be a good score on this pitch. Today fans will finally get to see Rabada and Archer playing together for the first time.

The news from the toss is Sunrisers have won the toss and chose to bowl first. 

Team

MI Cape Town: 1: Dewal Brevis, 2: Ryan Rickelton, 3: Grant Roelofsen, 4: Rassie Van der Dussen, 5: Sam Curran, 6: Delano Potgieter, 7: George Linde, 8: Rashid Khan, 9: Odean Smith, 10: Kagiso Rabada, 11: Jofra Archer

Sunrisers Eastern Cape: 1: Adam Rossington, 2: JJ Smuts, 3: Sarel Erwee, 4: Aiden Markram, 5: Tristan Stubbs, 6: Tom Abell, 7: Marco Jansen, 8: Roelof van der Merwe, 9: Sisanda Magala, 10: Ottniel Baartman, 11: Brydon Carse

Australia vs Pakistan 3rd test day 3 review

  The third day of the third Test match between Australia and Pakistan was exciting, with both teams battling it out on the field. Australia resumed on 116-2 with Labuschange and Smith continuing to score steadily and take Australia closer to Pakistan's first innings score of 313. Labuschange and Smith added 71 runs before both Smith and Labuschange lost their wickets one after the other. Australia then managed a few small partnerships to take their score to 289 before collapsing to 299 all out giving Pakistan a first-innings lead of 14 runs.  Pakistan began their 2nd innings in the worst way possible by losing 2 quick wickets in opener Abdulla Shafiq and Captain Shan Masood both for ducks. Saim Ayub and Babar Azam then gave Pakistan some hope with a partnership of 57 before Pakistan's batting collapsed from 58-2 to 68-7 to end the day staring at defeat and missing another chance to win their 1st test in 28 years. Pakistan last won a test match in Australia in 1995...
