He's a wonderful talent. The proteas will be really screwed without him. But I can't see him surviving this.
His sledge on Warner was epic.
:?:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't that the incident he was censured for? I.E. nothing to be proud of?
Possibly not, but Warner initiated the exchange with comments on the ugliness of de Kok's mother and sister.

de Kok retaliated with a comment about Warner's wife which resulted in Warner attacking him with a cricket bat.

I'd better just say that this is to my best recollection or Handyman will be on here demanding a link.

This, fuck the Proteas
Oh how I love this comment, must feel like a proper poes now

A shock to see Mitchell opening for NZ but he did very well.
And now they seem to be holding Conway back. He'll be in at 5 at the earliest.

Fantastic and colourful crowd scenes, and some gorgeous women to be seen.

So in just three balls Williamson is out, then he isn't, then a 4 followed by a one-handed 6.
Great entertainment.

A sprawling dive might have been a better option than the baseball slide. 90-4

Porkystorn are looking very strong in these first two games so far. Can’t see NZ getting out of this with anything today.

NZ need a big last 3 overs here.

Had hoped for a flurry of runs 18th over, but thus far it's a double-wicket maiden!

Fantastic to see. Great to see a former powerhouse back in the mix. I would love them to turn into a top 4 test team too.

As much as I'd like Pakistan to do well, I do find their lolapses rather entertaining.

Wow.
Successive 6s in 17th over swung it to Pakis but then three dots brought it back.
Stunning game.
