Sarel Erwee wins the Player of the Match award. He says it was nice to hit through the line. Adds he has been playing some club cricket and it just helped him here.
Pakistan Champions were aware the pitch is really good to bat but they didn't make most of the first few overs when the ball was doing a bit. They had their moments but didn't make most of the chances that fell on their way. With this, Pakistan Champions have lost their first match.
What a fabulous chase from South Africa Champions! So, in both matches in the day we have seen the team chase down more than 200 in fine fashion. It was an absolute treat to see South Africa Champions today. They had nothing to lose and they came out all guns blazing to chase the mammoth total. They lost JP Duminy early on but then came the match-winning partnership. It was Jacques Snyman initially who scored most of the runs. However, Sarel Erwee joined him in the middle and went past him in scoring runs, launched a century and helped his team win their first match.
