SA20 match 7 review

 


MI Cape Town bounced back from defeat the previous day in tremendous fashion as Rabada arrived in the SA20 with a bang. 
The JSK batting woes continued as their top order failed again and they could only post 105 in their 20 overs which was easily chased by MI Cape Town. 
Rabada was the star making his debut for MI Cape Town he took 2-12 from 4 overs. Brevis was the star with the bat scoring 42 of 34 including 2 4s and 3 6s at a strike rate of 123.52. Brevis's strike rate was a bit low, but conditions were not the easiest for batting and he did well to ensure the MI Cape Town team were close to claiming another bonus point win although they fell short. 

The Super Kings will have to look at their batting and figure things out before their first home game on Tuesday. They have the option of bringing Neil Brand who is a left-hand top-order batter. Faf could also move up to the opening slot or Leus du Plooy could be moved to the opening slot and have one of Reeza or Janneman move to the middle order. 

MI Cape Town will be happy with this performance and will want to continue their winning ways when they travel to Gqeberha for their first away game of the SA20.

Proteas vs India ODI series Preview

  The Proteas are set to face India in a three-match ODI series, starting on December 17, 2023. The series will be played in Johannesburg, Gqeberha, and Paarl. South Africa comes into the series with a relatively young team that is still finding its feet in international cricket.

Pakistan vs Australia 2nd test Day 1 review

 Australia and Pakistan faced off in the second Test match at MSG. Pakistan won the toss and elected to bowl first. The visitors started well with opening bowlers Shaheen Afridi and Mir Hamza getting the ball to move off the seam. However, the Australian batter struck back with a good opening partnership of 90 runs. Australia finished the day at 187/3 off 66 overs as rain played spoilsport, with Hasan Ali, Agha Salman and Aamer Jamal the pick of the bowlers. It was a tough day for the Pakistani bowlers as they struggled to cause Australian bowlers for long enough periods at a time, but they will look to bounce back on Day 2. The Australian batsman will be aiming to put up a big total for their bowlers to bowl too. Overall, it was an exciting day of Test cricket and fans can look forward to more action in the coming days.  Writer: Ebrahim Yusuf Omar
