To be honest with you guys, I’ve finally run out of superlatives to describe our boys in this world cup so far. Toughest match yet against the Southafricans and victory yet again is ours. I would say its another thrashing, when you consider the difference in the ratings and how many overs we took to chase down their score.
Details:
Winning the toss we put them in on an uneven pitch. They held out for a while but the world cup hero U. Nasser didn’t let any of their batsmen settle down and nore did Musa. Taking 8 wickets between them they restricted the Southafricans to 160. Nasser 5 for 15 off 6.2 overs and Musa 3 for 36 off his 10 overs.
We lost an early wicket but Murat stayed in and made a slow but steady 42 off 71 balls. We could have been in trouble after losing our second wicket with 33 runs on the board, but Hamdan came in and steadied the ship and essentially made sure we got home without too many problems. He was supported well buy Saleh and once Hamdan was out the job was pretty much done, so we reached our target in the 35th over.
The pleasing thing for me has to be how everyone has taken their turns to perform for us and Hamdan was one of those who had not won us a game so far. I have to say U. Nasser had an average season for UAE but he’s having an astonishing world cup so far. All in all brilliant, keep supporting us guys:)

I doubt we'll play properly tomorrow, there's no point, saving fatigue should be the main goal.

In terms of likely quarters, I think losing might be the best result.
