SportsTranscript
00:00Welcome back to the County Ground, Northampton, South Africa against Pakistan in the WCL 2024.
00:18Kamran Akmal, Sharjeel, Shoaib Maqsood is in great form, Shoaib Malik got 15 in the previous match.
00:25Yunus Khan coming back in the side after missing a couple of matches.
00:28Miss Baul Haq there, Shahid Afridi, I mean, they did not leave anybody out.
00:32But looking at the South African champions playing 11, obviously complaining of a few injuries there.
00:38Got a couple of youngsters in, drafted in last moment.
00:42Daryl Irvi and Jax Nyman, that should help their cause.
00:47South African champions, just a quick reminder, South African champions won the toss, elected to bowl first.
00:58Kamran Akmal will be facing the usual shape away from the right-hander.
01:06But in this case, he finds the gap and finds the boundary.
01:09The very first delivery, Kamran Akmal on his way.
01:14A few more overs in before you get the length right, not on that occasion, that was full, too full.
01:20Sharjeel was looking for that length.
01:25It's very high up in the bat.
01:28Oh, trickles over the boundary, didn't really time it.
01:33Something had to give.
01:35Does he have a shield as well?
01:37He's also got to watch out.
01:42Leading edge, an opportunity.
01:44And grabs.
01:46Easily taken.
01:48He's not a swinger, but he can seem the ball.
01:51And that ball just seemed away from him.
01:54Got a little big on him.
01:56And an easy catch, a short mid-wicket.
01:59Comfortable catch.
02:01That's the first fled, Kamran Akmal was in great form, gone for 13, he's 17 for 1 now.
02:07That's a pick-up shot.
02:11Ease my trip maximum.
02:14He plays that shot so, so well.
02:17So if you bowl a little short, he'll pick you, like that.
02:21He had the time to swing his bat.
02:23Earlier we saw he miscoupled, purely because the ball was a little fuller.
02:28Half a yard is a lot if you're not bowling quick enough.
02:33Now this time, on the leg side, a little bit fuller.
02:37Easy picking for Shajil.
02:41Oh, oh, that sound.
02:44That sound.
02:46He was another one who will kiss the surface and he just comes off the surface very quickly.
02:51This one came off the bat very quickly.
02:55But these guys, they kiss the surface and let the seam do the job for them.
03:01There's a very little difference, but it works for both.
03:07That's 4.
03:09It's just that angle that was getting the ball much, much closer to Shajil.
03:13And just the open face of the bat gets in the boundary.
03:17It's just that bounce and pace, the skittiness of the surface as well.
03:22Shajil was beaten with that sort of pace and bounce, but will take the boundary.
03:30Finds the gap between the keeper and the slip.
03:39That's one of those powerful, powerful shots.
03:44That's one of those powerfully struck, ease my trip 6 that you see from Shajil.
03:50What a shot this is.
03:52Beautiful hit.
03:56That'll be 4 as well.
03:58Once you beat the man standing at point.
04:0650, Shajil.
04:08He's been batting really well.
04:10Of 27 deliveries.
04:14Catch it.
04:17Catch it was the goal, but probably to the spectator sitting in the stands.
04:21Another ease my trip 6.
04:25Fired in fast and flat and I'm afraid Maqsood is too good.
04:34It's just that angle that helped Shajil.
04:38And really powerfully struck by him.
04:41Another ease my trip 6. It's raining 6s here at Northamptonshire.
04:45A ground that is known for producing fine white ball pitches.
04:51And high scoring affairs and this is more of the same really.
04:56Beautiful clean hit.
05:02Goes straight back past the bowler and into the stands again.
05:06Another ease my trip 6.
05:08Nearly landed in a chicken biryani in the hospitality.
05:13What a hit down the ground.
05:15Flat bat.
05:19Out Nick.
05:21Langerfeld back into the attack.
05:23After pitching he just moved away.
05:26And feet didn't go nowhere.
05:28Maqsood who's been in great form had to leave the crease and go back to the dressing room.
05:3524 of 24.
05:37One or two for two.
05:46Should have been taken.
05:48Should have been taken.
05:52Well he was out first ball if you remember against India.
05:55Right at the end that he just came in and just teed off.
06:02That's a go for four.
06:05Wow that's two nice pieces of timing from Alfredi.
06:14Again wide.
06:15Oh over the fielder.
06:17This is going to run away for four.
06:19End of the 12.
06:21116 for two.
06:26That is a big shot.
06:27That is such a big shot because it's not a big back lift.
06:30He just waits and waits.
06:32And it's his sixth.
06:34He's my trip six.
06:36Big forearms and he's got a very very strong wrist.
06:41It's just that last flick when the ball gets closer to him.
06:46And that's where the energy comes and that's why he hits it so far.
06:54Has he got enough of it? Has he?
06:56Not this time.
06:58Dain Vilas.
06:59Safe pair of hands.
07:03The ball was a little too full to play that shot.
07:06That's why he couldn't really get the elevation.
07:10Hit it flat.
07:11Vilas who dropped the catch earlier.
07:14This one no problem. Easy.
07:17Fijil who's batted magnificently.
07:2072 of 36 deliveries.
07:22This is 124 for three Pakistan.
07:26It's very very hard to actually come back and bowl the second spell or the third spell.
07:36Bowled.
07:37Pace up to Afridi.
07:39A little bit of a bottom edge.
07:42And Steyn has a wicket.
07:45That's the shot he really likes to play.
07:48Loves to play.
07:49He had lots of success on that particular shot.
07:53But Dale Steyn knew.
07:55He knew that Afridi will be eyeing on the onside
07:59and cut the pace down
08:01and getting that bottom edge onto the leg stump.
08:06Afridi gone for 20.
08:08Good strike rate of 200.
08:10135 for four.
08:16That was nicely timed and placed by Shoaib Malik.
08:20A low ball.
08:21Free hit coming.
08:22Absolute crime.
08:26Hasn't timed it, hasn't timed it.
08:28And what a catch there by Dan Vilas.
08:33Not only you see him do that with gloves behind the stump
08:36but what a great outfielder.
08:38Don't think he realized it's a free hit.
08:40There was no need to dive.
08:46Big hits every single delivery.
08:48All the delicate touches working for you as well.
08:57In the slot.
09:00Guts at six.
09:04What a shot.
09:06Sumptuous.
09:09Just the way he danced down the surface.
09:12What's that?
09:13Picture perfect.
09:14Ease my trip.
09:15Six.
09:19Just slap that.
09:21Got on top of the bounce.
09:22Vilas saw Shoaib Malik come down the surface.
09:24Was looking to alter the length
09:25but Shoaib Malik was ready to the task.
09:28Take that boundary as well.
09:35Boom, boom.
09:36On the batter, Abdur Razak.
09:38Finishes the over with the ease my trip.
09:40Six.
09:4119 from that over.
09:42179 for four.
09:48Another boundary I think.
09:51Slower delivery.
09:52Big dirty.
09:54Smoked it through the onside.
09:59That's a lovely shot.
10:00Good timing for...
10:07Another poor delivery.
10:08Another boundary.
10:13Six.
10:15What a hit.
10:18Stand and deliver.
10:22Guts another.
10:23Ease my trip.
10:24Six.
10:25It was in the slot as well
10:26but hold this posture.
10:28Right through the hitting zone.
10:32And that will be his 50.
10:34What an innings.
10:36And masterclass
10:37from Shoaib Malik.
10:41Strike rate of 200.
10:43Guts another.
10:44Ease my trip.
10:45Six to complete his half century.
10:46Back to back 50s for Shoaib Malik.
10:52Bouncer.
10:53We'll have to wait.
10:56We'll have to wait.
10:57No.
10:58It seems it's okay.
10:59He got away with it.
11:01Gino Best wouldn't like this.
11:02I tell you what.
11:0720 overs.
11:09210 for four.
11:13Let's talk about batting.
11:14Batting.
11:15Sergile.
11:1672 of 36.
11:18Shoaib Malik can result
11:19that partnership of 75
11:20but Shoaib Malik
11:21with 51 of just 26
11:23gave them that real push
11:25to get to 210 for four.
11:28That's how well
11:29the batsmen have been able
11:30to go out there
11:31and get the runs
11:32and in quick time.
11:33Yeah.
11:34Three bowlers
11:35going over 15.
11:37It's such a contrasting...
11:39South Africa champions
11:40to win this game
11:41get two points on the points table
11:42they need to get
11:43211 runs
11:45at 10.55 an hour.
11:49Slip in place.
11:51They need a little bit of urgency.
11:56Might be overthrows here.
11:57There is overthrows here.
11:58What a great start
11:59for South Africa.
12:01They're going to get a five.
12:08Beautiful shot.
12:09That is really good.
12:14There we go.
12:16Caught one.
12:17Pulled the other.
12:18Expensive first over.
12:2014 from it.
12:2114 without loss.
12:25Clipped.
12:27That's a beautiful shot.
12:35This one is
12:36hit back hard
12:37past the bowler.
12:43This will run away.
12:44Won't stop that.
12:45Abdulrezak.
12:46This will be four leg buys.
12:48Just not quite getting
12:49his line or length right here.
12:51Sahil Khan.
12:56In the air.
12:57This has got a long way up.
12:58Misbah
12:59is underneath it.
13:01Takes it.
13:03Really good catch.
13:05That's a really good catch
13:06from Misbah.
13:07Look how high this goes.
13:08Dumoulin going
13:09across the leg side.
13:11Trying to flip it
13:12like he did last over.
13:14Up there.
13:15Long time.
13:16Swirling wind outside.
13:17It's raining.
13:18Misbah
13:19gathers
13:20cleanly.
13:21That's a great catch.
13:25Pakistan get that first.
13:26JP Dumoulin.
13:27He's walking off
13:28very slowly for nine.
13:2927 for one.
13:35That's a decent shot.
13:36It's like he wants to get
13:37on top of the bounce.
13:39And like you say,
13:40Nile
13:41quick hands.
13:46Little inside edge
13:47and a boundary
13:48to finish
13:49the over.
13:5036 for one.
13:51That's been quite good.
13:52People have been
13:53turning up on the ground
13:54with a full house
13:55India-Pakistan.
13:56So you couldn't
13:57have asked for more.
13:58And in this place as well
13:59it looks quite good.
14:05Big six over there.
14:08Oh, look at that.
14:10That is
14:11a beautiful shot.
14:13Short of a length
14:14and just
14:15helped over mid-on.
14:19Crunched
14:21with consummate ease.
14:27Oh,
14:28oh my God.
14:30What a punch
14:31that is
14:32for an ease
14:33my trip
14:34six, baby.
14:37We see from
14:38Snyman
14:39how much time he's got.
14:41Picture perfect.
14:42Hold that pose.
14:43Hold that pose.
14:44All the cameramen
14:45taking a picture.
14:47Wow.
14:50Full toss
14:51pumped down the ground.
14:52Oh, this is brilliant.
14:53What a great power play
14:55for a South Africa
14:56champion.
14:57Finally
14:58the box can
14:59smile and have
15:00a bit of a song
15:01in the crowd.
15:0265 for one.
15:05Miss dumping.
15:06Cameron Ackman
15:09no turn.
15:11Batter stranded.
15:12Ackman misses it.
15:14It goes for four buys.
15:20It's a little bit ungainly
15:21but he's picked the gap.
15:22He has.
15:23He's done just that.
15:24There was a little bit
15:25of lack of communication
15:26in the deep.
15:27Will you?
15:28Won't you?
15:29In the end,
15:30neither did.
15:35Now that sounded
15:36very, very nice.
15:38And it looked
15:39even better.
15:40It's an ease my trip.
15:41Six up.
15:43Just looking to
15:44flight that ball
15:45and probably ball it
15:46slightly more back
15:47of the length
15:48than the reach
15:49of Irvi.
15:50Guts to it.
15:53Starts over the
15:54half track.
15:55Good.
15:56And
15:57an ease my trip
15:58maximum.
16:00What?
16:01The way you said
16:02ease my trip maximum.
16:03Absolutely
16:04deep.
16:05Thought it was excellent.
16:07You delivered it beautifully.
16:08So did the batter.
16:13It's downtown.
16:15Another
16:16ease my trip.
16:17Six back to back now.
16:19Two from two then.
16:20Deep.
16:23It's just the kind of start
16:24they would have wanted
16:25after the break.
16:28Make it three out of three.
16:30Back to back.
16:31Third ease my trip.
16:32Six.
16:33And he reaches
16:34his half century
16:35as well
16:36of just 28.
16:37It started off
16:38a little slowly
16:39but then
16:40has picked it up
16:41and has reached
16:42that milestone
16:43before Sneiman.
16:45The best of the three
16:46so far.
16:51He goes aerial.
16:52Goes straight.
16:53And it's in the gap.
16:55Now he brings up.
16:56Oh no.
16:57It's Irvi.
17:00Slow one.
17:01Pulls it to the onside
17:02and the gap again.
17:03Another boundary.
17:05That's just
17:06amazing hitting.
17:10Slow one.
17:11Picked it up early.
17:12Went over.
17:13Extra cover.
17:14Another boundary.
17:15Three back to back
17:16boundaries now
17:17and it's over.
17:20Two straight.
17:22He's got punished.
17:24Another ease my trip
17:25maximum.
17:30He also spoke about
17:31improving their
17:32net run rate.
17:33That's exactly what
17:34they're trying to do
17:35it seems.
17:36Get the game done now.
17:37You're only one down.
17:38Get it done as quickly
17:39as possible.
17:40Win it in 18.
17:43Oh nicely
17:44flighted.
17:45And finally
17:47gets that milestone.
17:48He's been waiting
17:49for it for a while.
17:5055
17:51of 32.
17:52Sneiman gets to
17:53his half century
17:54as well.
17:59A very average
18:00delivery.
18:02A half tracker
18:03on the pads
18:04but does it really
18:05well.
18:06Sneiman to play it
18:07as fine as he did
18:08to get that boundary.
18:13Chipped up and
18:14over.
18:15Extra cover.
18:16Lovely hands
18:17from SJ

18:26Oh now
18:27then was that a
18:28chance.
18:30It was airborne
18:31once again.
18:33Ajmal
18:34angling into
18:35leg stomp
18:36and Irvi trying to
18:37loft it over.
18:38You just didn't
18:39get a finger on it.
18:42Oh what a
18:43shot that is.
