Well that was wet, wasn’t it.
Really really soft. Shumba was looking decent for the time he was there. That slog sweep was impressive.
Burl’s shot was just pure embarrassing.

Too many players in our squad not suitable for the T20 format. Ervine playing is like Pujara playing for India in T20.

You can't blame Ervine, wickets falling, needs to consolidate, he had a few balls to take a look. Plus world class bowling, then gets an outside edge that squire's in the other direction and a good catch.
Ervine knows what he's doing and in a sea of mediocrity he should be in this T20 side.

Jaffer from Blessing, spilt chance. Chamu is not a slipper, two chances in three games, dropped both.

That's one area where we still miss Hamilton. We don't seem to have anyone good enough to be in slips anymore?

T20 is a different game from two years ago. The bowling has improved immensely. The batters have to make some big adjustments to get going, particularly against the spin.
We've got no chance without playing it at home.
The problem is we don't have world class T20 spinners to face. They bowl 90, the better ones get drift, and it skids on. You rarely get a chance to come down, you have to learn to clear and play square or back foot it over the circle. Its a skill you have to practice.

I don’t understand why they all bowl medium pace, This Faraz guy looks tall and Athletic, but still bowling medium pace. No gas at all
