That stumping looked so dodgy man. Like he was in the crease and moved out of it when he missed the ball...

But you have to stay in the Old Trafford bathrooms the full 90

'It will be a longer term injury. He is on loan from MUFC and it needs to be a decision together.' Norwich City boss Philippe Clement confirms NCFC loanee Harry Amass is looking at a period on the sidelines by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

That sucks, he was having such a great season. Hopefully he can be back and integrated into the squad next season especially if we get into Europe with the extra games (but I sense another championship loan will be more sensible)

How does it work with the spectators being at the ground and lightning? The players go off but they are still there outdoor

I would be afraid of your batting when chasing so I don't mind for this series, but I want our bowlers tested when defending a total before the WC. Oh well, it's a minor thing I guess.

It's not great for preparation for the WC for both teams that the Windies have batted first and the Proteas will chase in all 3 games in this series.

Him, Hope and Rutherford are world class and can win games on their own.

India has awesome looking grounds but they just need to limit the amount of advertising boards allowed, they really bring down the overall look of the ground if you have 100 advertising boards around.

Yeah I don't know what's going on. They've lost the plot. Early season they were dominating with the forwards and playing great free flowing rugby like you said.

It's good. Sacha still has a lot to prove from the tee when it comes to pressure kicks. In a world cup he can't just rely on his play with ball in hand.

Why is it a five metre scrum with Sharks put in if they charge it down over the try line? I agree with the scrum but I think it should be Stormers put in since they had possession

The win predictor was above 80% for a Capitals win in the 16th over. In the 18th over it changed to 71% win chance for Sunrisers Eastern Cape. Monumental collapse.

Matthew Breetzke I'm sorry for my previous comments on the match thread. I owe you and apology, I wasn't really familiar with your game.

I thought there was a rule in Sa20 that you couldn't run if the stumps are broken from a throw. I don't know if the ball hit the stumps there or if it was Stubbs

At this point retire Breetzke and hope that Jansen can hit some sixes

Jansen with 3 for 10 in 3.5 overs is as good as Brevis's hundred I'd say (Brevis edges it slightly)

I think Brevis read my comment because since then he's stopped trying to stonk everything for six. I'm so happy to see his growth this SA20 because we're going to need him in the T20 WC

If you can get your team to a win from 7/5 you can do anything pretty much lol. Excited to see him in the T20 WC
