One of the toughest matches so far in this tournament since both team players did well. I am sure Steeve will come back strong, and I wanted to nominate him as captain for this match, keeping the playing conditions and law of averages in mind, but stopped short in favor of Travis Head.

Maybe I will regret it at the end of the match, but that's what I do after every match, so no worries. Or maybe I will change a couple of them once the toss is done or probably when Klassan comes back in the SA team. I am sure this pitch is going to help batsmen tonight.
