South Africa will absolutely cream them.

 

[PhatBoy]

Bangladesh are a class or two below SA but they don’t have a fear of anyone like they used to. Slightly dangerous game for SA if they don’t lift

 

[Ishikawa]

South Africa will absolutely cream them.

Based on what? I'd be shocked if they did. Bangladesh have plenty of experience and recent form on their side.

Difference in playing on sub continent pitches v English conditions will suit SA pace attack.

Looking like Steyn will miss again, plus Amla in doubt. David Miller surely plays

 

[corbies]

You'd have to give Bangladesh a chance tonight. As always alot relies on Shakib with both bat and ball but they're also probably going to need Tamim and Mushfiqur to make big runs.

That South African two-tone strip is horrendous!

 

[WatsamattaU]

That South African two-tone strip is horrendous!

Don’t know why they need a clash kit, both teams wear the same colour in test cricket.

 

[Hamingja]

How many Bangladeshis are at the ground!

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Top start Bangladesh.

 

[corbies]

South Africa look a bit panicked right now.

 

[gtrxuone]

Bangladesh look in pretty good Nick here.Some very nice technically correct shots.They have a few fans there also.Not as noisy as Pakistan but pretty loud.

Sell more tops, make more money i guess.

 

[smasha]

Tigers!

 

[Zevon]

Bangladesh have batted excellently so far; an extremely confident start. Think now that South Africa have seen that there’s very little in the pitch for the seamers they would probably bat first if they had their choice again.

 

[Rocco sifreddi]

Saffers getting smoked why is that gimp mark nicklaus commentating ?

 

[Kram]

How would you like to have that cricket bat guitar PhatBoy?

 

[Bedi]

Ok so we've worked out the mystery of the shred guitarist – he's playing on a stringed cricket bat. At least there's a reason why it sounds so bad.

 

[Kram]

"..and it's a very good start for Bangladesh.."

2 seconds later he nicks the ball.

 

[Hotdees]

Odd that South Africa are playing their second game before India have played their first game.

India don't play their first game until Wednesday which will be against South Africa so that will be their third game.

As for this game, South Africa should win but Bangladesh won't be easybeats, they have some talented players like Tamim Iqbal, Shakib and Mahmudullah.

India requested a late start to give their players a longer break after the IPL.

 

[Doodlesweaver]

Shakib in at 3. Is that usual for the Bangers these days?

Edit: He's 32! When did that happen?

 

[Sprout]

That should not be umpire’s call. It wasn’t clipping the bail. Comfortably hitting the top of leg. That should be out. Looked out live.

Hearing Mark Nicholas singing along to smoke on the water while it's being played on a cricket bat guitar wasn't something I was quite ready for this World Cup
