SA tour of NZ, Feb 17-March 29

[Arthur Crabtree]

Time to turn in. My final guess is, if the pitch doesn't quicken up, 280 will be enough.

taylor gets to his hundred with a 4 off the last ball of the innings after being close to getting caught off the previous ball

very good partnership with neesham gets them to a respectable looking 289

hard to tell how good that is, looked tough to score at times but at the same time the SA bowlers never seemed to create much

[rich1uk]

SA were looking on course to chase down the target but just lost 4 wickets for 22 runs and now looks a huge ask

[rich1uk]

last couple of overs have made it interesting

boult drops pretorius and then SA get 27 runs off the next 2 overs

[rich1uk]

bizarre last over from phehlukwayo

SA need 15 off it and he turns down a single from each of the first 3 deliveries rather than let tahir on strike

NZ hold on to win, must have been getting a bit twitchy when pretorius was going well

[Arthur Crabtree]

Sounds a bit of a thriller. All square.

Congrats to Ross Taylor who now holds the most hundreds in ODI's by a kiwi

[The Professor]

Another close evenly sided game. Turning into a good series.

[rich1uk]

SA win the toss and bat first

Morris left out to get Rabada back in

NZ bring in Ferguson for Sodhi

[rich1uk]

de Kock taking on NZ single handedly atm

in the 11th over and SA are 49-1 and he has 42 of them

[Arthur Crabtree]

Another small ground, from memory.

Another small ground, from memory.

according to the comms the average scores here are fairly low historically

they were predicting 280 as a par score at the start and WASP has it at 300 now tho

[rich1uk]

that over from de Grandhomme changes the game

gets both de Kock and Du Plessis so 2 new batsmen at the crease

[Arthur Crabtree]

Range of scoring now is probably just down to what ABDV does. But 280 minimum.
