[Franco Vazquez]

What a shot

[vvvslaxman]

Looking at the bowling spinners will play an even bigger role than pacers. 

[Lannister]

Clever plan to open with a spinner. 

[vvvslaxman]

PItch is bone dry. No grass.

[Sachinism]

Killer move from Faf

 

Screwed me though, had just money on JB to be top scorer in the tournament

[Franco Vazquez]

Ngidi looks quicker than Rabada

Dry pitch. Good option to use a bowler in good form.

[vvvslaxman]

Root has to go as he is a proper batsman. He won't give easy chances.

[Franco Vazquez]

Tahir move will soon get flat. Should take him off now 

[Stan AF]

Positive positive batting from england

run rate back to 6, imagine the Hitman

[vvvslaxman]

Bowling is not accurate. But pitch is such a batting beauty. SA should focus on not giving free boundaries.

[Jimmy Cliff]

Seems to be a decent crowd in. I was dreading a funeral like atmosphere.

[Stan AF]

Rabada punched/pushed back for 4. Awesome timing.

[Austin 3:!6]

World Cup Started

[Stan AF]

Lungi can't be troubling much batsmen in this WC.

[bahubali]

How can this Lungi is right arm fast not a single ball at 140 as of now. Mostly hovering between 75 to 83 mph. Just now bowled 70mph.

Because he is south african ,hence fast _broadcaster logic

[Stan AF]

Rotate the strike more often , Roy.

[Stan AF]

Root needs to be more on the strike. Looks composed.
