[Tillu]

Never trust SA to bail you out of any difficult situation. Pakistan still has a chance as long as SA is playing the remaining teams.

Bangladesh winning here would be good for Pakista . SA is one of the competitor's for the fourth spot along with Pakistan, more matches they lose especially against the Minnows  better for Pakistan .

Could be but then both SA and Ban will be desperate to beat Pakistan which is Pakistani next 2 games

 Not really spinning that much till now. Need to see how much it spins when the ball gets old.

To me,  it looks like a flat pitch, with nothing for the spinners.  SA were little tentative early on and Ban capitalized on it.

Dont worry if SA don't lose anymore wickets they can score big runs later in the last 20 overs..meanwhile opening up now.

Can't believe QDK is retiring after the WC.

 

Stupid politics

Two early wickets but SA can grab the ascendancy if this pair bats on for another 13-15 overs

Maybe he will change his decision like Stokes did. He would still be in much better form and the next WC is in SA..

I think he wants captaincy. Deserves it ahead of Bavuma but won't get it.

[bsriharsha]

It's not politics. It's money.

Bavuma shouldn't even be in the playing x1

[bsriharsha]

Poor fielding by bangboys. 

 

50 for qdk

[rollingstoned]

Dekock is a complete 360 player, hits the ball to all parts of the ground when he gets going and does it in a way that looks textbook. Ditto for Klaasen.

Markram just waiting to go to beast mode.

Pak would concede 400+ easy in Mumbai without breaking a sweat. 

 

Bangla have good defensive bowling side. 

 

Excited for BD v Pak.  Brother liton needs to survive Shaheen & he would tear into them...  Maybe even Tanzid as well. 

[Norman]

Very smart batting this by South Africans..

 

They know 320-330 is enough for Bangladesh so rather aim for that at this stage than to lose a heap of wickets trying to over attack.

[rageaddict]

Yeah SA playing it smartly they want to win and collect 2 points here rather than going for 400 runs at the risk of being bowled out cheaply.

[rageaddict]

Markram gone. Klaasen time now.
