ICC Champions Trophy Match 3: South Africa vs Sri Lanka, Oval
Who are you supporting?
I've always liked South Africa. But SL also, nice likeable side. Going for SA.

Those who are not watching the game. Amazing from the commies, the tone has changed dramatically. Yesterday Bangladesh was going slow in the beginning most them were seeming shocked how and why BD not hitting and seemed frustrated. Today South Africa 11-0 off 4 overs. It's, apparently 'early start, cloud around hence cautious start' - even though sun shining.

People are blaming Tamim too much IMO. Because of him we got a foundation of 260-2. Too bad our middle and lower order couldn't take advantage of it.

Yup, despite not having any express bowler, they have kept SA in check with their impeccable line and length.

Kepler Wessels is saying this pitch is a bit tacky. Truth or biased opinion?

Yes, there's moisture in it...will eventually be a good batting wicket sometime in the second innings.

Those practice pitches just before the boundary line are within the spirit of the game.

I'm clearly hoping for a good game.

De Villiers gone. Are we going to see another middle order collapse for the third time in this tourney?

Lets see what Rabada does. But SL have a real chance if they can form a good partnership in the beginning
