[Papa Lazarou]

21 off the 1st over - on course to get it in about 12 overs.

21 off the 1st over - on course to get it in about 12 overs.

Well there we are. Easy. Not sure what we are all worried about.

 

[spring hall convert]

Well... our batting is our stronger suit.

Steyn next up though.

 

[pasty]

And Hales dropped on first ball and it goes for 4

 

[Everest]

SA are as bad as us in the field

 

[Mackenzie]

Easy.

44 off of 2 overs

 

[Mr Smggles]

Settle in with the Pringles guys, this could be good.

 

[Everest]

Never in doubt

 

[Was not Was]

This is amazing - beating by six the previous international T20 record for biggest total after two overs!

 

[pasty]

WOW! This is mental. Think I just heard them say that is the highest score off the first 2 overs of an International T20 match EVER.

 

[Knightsworld]

I'm going to predict that we'll PLOD our way to 70/2 after 10, and THEN start swinging the bat, once the total is MILES out of reach.

Reverse psychology, I like it.

 

[pasty]

Hales gone for 17

48/1

 

[Everest]

Dot ball and wicket

You're useless Hales

 

[pasty]

Second fastest ever team 50

 

[Everest]

SA 50 up off 23 balls
England's in 17

 

[Pavilionaire]

Unbelievable scoring, are they playing this match on a tennis court in a Force 10 gale?

 

[Titanic]

Roy scoops an attempted yorker from Abbott for SIX... and is caught trying it again off the next ball

43 from 16 balls... impressive effort.

71- 2 (4.3 overs)

 

[Bold Seagull]

Boring T20 really...

 

[Bold Seagull]

Stokesy, that was a gift you plum!

 

[inland seagull]

Stokes, that full toss should have gone into the stands
