SA20 match 14 review

Sunrisers continue their comeback with their 3rd straight win in the SA20. The Sunrisers beat the Royals by 4 wickets in what turned out to be a close low-scoring encounter between the 2 teams.

The Royals struggled with the bat after losing wickets at regular intervals as all their batsman got starts and then lost their wicket. The Sunrisers' bowlers never let the batsman get away from them as all bowled well. The Standouts were Magala 1-15 in 4 overs, Markram 2-21 in 4 overs, Roelof Van der Merwe 2-21 in 4 overs and Brydon Carse 2-29 in 4 overs.

The Sunrisers looked comfortable in the chase as Jordan Hermann 43 0f 39 including 3 4s and 2 6s and Aiden Markram 23 of 23 including 1 four and 1 six put together a partnership of 57 of 50 to take the Sunrisers within distance of victory before Bjorn Fortuin 3-20 in 4 overs took 3 wickets in an over to give the Sunrisers a bit of a scare before Stubbs and Jansen guided them home.

The pitch for this match was a good one it just required the batsman to apply themselves and play proper cricketing shots. The biggest key on this pitch was patience. If you look at how Hermann and Markram batted, you know that it is possible to bat on this pitch and score around 140 to 150 which is a competitive score in these conditions.

Proteas vs India 2nd test Day 1 review

The second test match between Proteas and India kicked off on a high note with the hosts putting up a horrendous batting performance on day 1. The Proteas team won the toss and elected to bat first, but they failed to make the most of the opportunity as the Indian bowlers wreaked havoc on the home team's batting line-up bowling them out for 55. Mohammed Siraj was the chief destroyer with 6 wickets for 15 runs in 9 overs. He was equally supported by Mukesh and Bumrah both taking 2 wickets each. The Indian team lost their first wicket early on, with Jaiswal departing for a duck. The rest of the top-order batsmen struggled to get going as well, and the team was bowled out for 153. However, a brilliant counter-attacking innings from Markram helped the home team to 62-3 at stumps to steady the ship. It was an excellent day for bowlers on both sides as 23 wickets fell for 270 runs. The Proteas bowlers, led by Rabada and Lungi Ngidi, were impressive after t...
