If we won the toss this game would of been alot tighter. in the bag for SA now though.

KevIRL

62-2 (19.3ovs)

county

63-3 now

KevIRL

Am I right in thinking that if we keep our number of wickets low and recent r/r (5.6 per over last 5 ovs) up then the D/L might help us?

DMC

Andrew White in now...

Brute of a delivery to dismiss Morgan...

63/3 from 20 overs (35 over game)

Fascinated nubie here wathcing this game, can someone explain what happened to Morgan.

If the ball hit his body ( on a trajectory over rthe stumps say ) would he still be out?

Is he only out cos it managed to cath the end of the bat?

What happens if you plain cock a guy , not LBW though?

cheers

Vera/Huey will help Ireland anyway... there should be a few more runs added to the target SA chase.

The ball has to come off of the glove/bat and then be caught for the batsman to be out. If the ball comes off of his elbow/shoulder/head etc. and is caught then he's not out.

Andrew goes to the softest of dismissals.

Getting caught off of a full toss is unforgivable.
