Nandre Burger has suddenly become arguably the most interesting donestic player to watch this season. Has slimmed down notably post injury and is sitting 145km/h with movement. This could be a player that has significantly raised his ceiling.

That was as close to a faultless bowling/fielding display by the #Proteas as could have been expected. Hopefully the batting unit comes to the party. #INDvsSA

Proteas getting stuck against spin here, and what nobody on commentary is mentioning is that even if they do win their NRR is likely to decrease and bring Pakistan into the equation for qualification. This is thanks to a very poor performance with the ball. #T20WorldCup2022

Well at least the Proteas have now turned the Pakistan v Bangladesh game into one of the most exciting of the tournament...#T20WorldCup2022

Ok might as well start the autopsy now: 1.Why bat second on used surface? 2.Why no 2nd spinner in these conditions? 3.Why a chronic underuse of cutters and changes of pace during the 1st inns? 4.Fix the 2nd opener slot going forward.

The cricketing gods rightly punishing the Super Giants for batting De Kock at no.6 in a game where they are chasing 200+...out first ball. Justice is done. #SA20

We will continue to see more and more players in their 30s make this move by ditching red ball in favour of the shorter formats. Makes complete sense from an earnings potential and career longevity perspective. Will expect this from fast bowlers especially.
