SA20 match 15 review

Image
By


 The Pretoria Capitals won comfortably by 8 wickets at Kingsmead in what was a one-sided match as The Super Giants were never really in the match. The Super Giants were behind after losing the wickets of Mayers, Mulder and De Kock very early in their innings. The Capitals Spinners made things even harder as they slowed the run rate further and took 4 wickets between them to totally end the hope of Super Giants putting up a competitive total. Adil Rashid finished with 1-10 in his 4 overs and Senuran Muthusamy, the homeboy finished with 3-12 in his 4 overs. 

The Capitals then made easy work of the chase as they raced to a bonus point win to tighten their hold on the top spot of the table. Will Jacks led the way with a 21-delivery 50.  The Super Giants are in 5th position currently and their hopes of making the knockouts took a big hit with this defeat as the competition reached the halfway mark with the conclusion of this match.

SA20 review

By
 The SA20 season 2 has ended with Sunrisers Eastern Cape successfully defending their title to win back-to-back titles. The Sunrisers were the team to beat as they played an excellent brand of cricket and dominated throughout the tournament winning 7 matches and losing 2 with 1 no result to top the table in the league stage.  The final of SA20 season 2 was played by the 2 best teams of the tournament the Sunrisers Eastern Cape and Durban Super Giants. Sunrisers proved too good for Super Giants beating them by 89 runs to not only successfully defend their SA20 title but also win the head-to-head between the 2 teams 3-1.  SA20 season 2 saw some unbelievable performances with quite a few young South African players taking the opportunity and shining. The young standout SA batsman were:  Rickelton 530 runs ave 58.88, strike-rate 173.77 Breetzke 416 runs ave 32, strike-rate 135.50  Stubbs 301 runs ave 60.20, strike-rate, 168.15   Mulder 297 runs...

Proteas vs England 3rd ODI

By
  The ODI series between Proteas and England ended with a 2-1 win for the Proteas. The series has been competitive and entertaining.  Proteas won the toss and chose to bowl. They started off well but then Buttler and Malan put together a partnership of 232 off 211. This partnership brought England right back into the match as they recovered from 14 for 3 to post 346-7 in their 50 overs.  In reply, the Proteas were always ahead of the scoring rate, the only problem was they lost wickets at regular intervals, which is why they ended up being bowled out for 287. Archer was the star picking up 6-40 of 9.1 overs. England won the match by 59 runs. The Proteas can take a lot of positives from this series as they have given themselves a good chance to gain the last direct qualification spot.  Writer : Ebrahim Yusuf Omar
