Give Nandu a game and play 5 overseas players.

Nandu is still a emerging player.

I prefer raymond reifer over kevlon anderson.

kevlon anderson bats too slow for t20 cricket.

Last year he was batting too slow in the games he played.

This is such an obvious thing to everyone except the GAW think tank.

Mudland think tank has bee rattled all season.

People here blamed Shai Hope when Tahir was out.

Tahir came back and nothing changed.

Mootie still not bowling his full quota
Tahir bowled 5 overs of pace in the Power Play
The obvious choice of opener in Ali is not being tried.
Ali will present a left/right hand combo.
Something wrong with Mudland management.
And it ain't Shai Hope.

Hopefully they get it together for these last two games.
Yes two, the qualifier and de finals.

since Tahir's return, Motie has bowled his full complement save last night

he didn't twice in 2 matches under Hope and 7/8 times under Tahir

small difference?

But yes they have not settled quite yet
They need to send Moeen up

Really????

What happened the first game when Tahir returned?
Of course that game does not count, since you said 7 of 8

Please do your research before posting.

Mootie is the best bowler on Mudland,
The management is screwing up, period.

Why is Shai playing back to the spinner when he should be playing forward?

Hope had a brain-fart.
That is not his usual batting.

There is something fishy about this tournament.

Lots of uncharacteristic decisions in many teams.
