South Africa are for the taking at the moment. Great effort from Sri Lanka to go there and be competitive. The problem is if you make your pitches crazy bouncy with lots of grass you turn average bowlers into world class ones. Maybe South Africa will re-think their approach. Some of their bowlers have averages close to 20 at home but Rabada for instance averages about 28 away from home.
If South Africa lose here, a 2-0 win versus Bangladesh should take us second in the world.

Sri Lanka are 147/2... go you good things!
Very good batting from Mendis and Fernando (O). Very impressed, played straight and looked good doing it

Anyone else ever read the true story of Ntini's alleged rape case?
He's commentating and apart from his, no real insights/excitable role, he makes my skin crawlAny links? Wasn't aware of it and find it easier to ask than to google

Not sure if anyone's following, but England and Windies are going nuts at St Georges
Windies set 419 to win, they need antoher 187 at 7s, with 6 wickets in hand. Monster 6s all day, it's just nuts. Anyone know if the ground is 'NZ' sized?
also, Gayle doing his 'good Gayle' impression; 127 off 66 so far. Insanity.
Edit:
Mark Wood’s figures are 6-0-34-4. The rest have combined figures of 18-0-195-0. -
Hear Butler got to fifty then got his next hundred runs in 32 balls or something!!
Morgan with a 'slow' hundred in 88 balls!
Would be amazing to watch a game like that - essentially 50 over 20/20!

Glenn Maxwell beat India 2-0 in the T20 series, as it turns out.
There is a clip of his highlights on this page: https://www.foxsports.com.au/cricket/india-vs-australia-second-twenty20-international-live-blog/news-story/84f17e4eae917ff069889d85734b7b3f
The second last shot for 6 is just freakish. Got to 100 off 50, sure (113 off 55 in the end), but that shot epitomises how freakish he is; strides down the wicket and short-arm bunts the pace bowler for a maximum. Just fucking wow.
