SA appear to have named their side already. Kallis being rested which is a bit of a loss as he loves batting here.
South Africa 1 Graeme Smith (capt), 2 Loots Bosman, 3 AB de Villiers, 4 JP Duminy, 5 Albie Morkel, 6 Mark Boucher (wk), 7 Ryan McLaren, 8 Roelof van der Merwe, 9 Johan Botha, 10 Dale Steyn, 11 Charl Langeveldt.
England (possible) 1 Joe Denly, 2 Alastair Cook, 3 Jonathan Trott, 4 Paul Collingwood (capt), 5 Eoin Morgan, 6 Matt Prior (wk), 7 Luke Wright, 8 Tim Bresnan, 9 Graeme Swann, 10 Sajid Mahmood, 11 James Anderson
Big big chance of showers tomo. no guarantee we get a game in imo which is a shame as I've been looking forward to this all week. SA short but look a much stronger side all round. 1.52 is a mugs price though for a T20 pre match.
You just hit on the root of the problem. For test matches they are so long weather is something that can be factored in. In 20/20 it has such a devastating and rapid impact it should void the match for betting purposes IMO.
How much you stuck for Informa :( ?

They (saffers) had the chance and did not take it, move along. Not at all fair if they return for say one over.
Rain again now, outfield soaked as it is.

It is marychain but its part and parcel of cricket betting
Before you ever bet on cricket you need to bare the weather in mind. Not only concerning delays but also how when playing it will effect the conditions - swing under overcast conditions etc.
Weve all been on the wrong end of a few with the weather but not going to change

I was green on england, backed and layed SA to end up big green SA .......3 overs before call off.....c'est la vie
The players need shooting for leaving themselves in that position when they had read the D/L sheets a couple of minutes earlier

cant just say we need 6 off the over so get a single every ball, and assume you can do it easily, and then look like idiots when you miss on the final ball
great bowling from anderson on final over, but should have been put to the sword
boks absolutely bottled it . . . cant just say we need 6 off the over so get a single every ball, and assume you can do it easily, and then look like idiots when you miss on the final ballgreat bowling from anderson on final over, but should have bee
think Eng took the lead as the Saffers lost the plot to be fair....anyway you shouldn't bet on it judging by your posts about how much you dislike the nature of the betting over the period I've seen you post.

dont really think a win should have been awarded at this point, it seems pretty harsh, SA were still pretty well placed and it could have gone either way really, just furthers my belief that D&L doesn't work with T20, or 50 overs for that matter.

Lucky big win here, feel for the SA backers, been there many a time. Those SA bats need to be given a basic lesson in arithmetic. 6 off that last over is just plain silly.

Saffers would have won in a canter - plenty of batting to come - Eng backers got lucky today - it continues their dream start to the Tour,but imv class wil lsoon assert itself and they wont get lucky much more often on this tour.

Swindon- How old are you? you sound like a young inexperienced gambler. These 'joke' matches where the odds swing wildly from ball to ball are a goldmine if you know what you're doing.

hee hee. There's much worse offenders than me when it comes to aftertiming. :)
Very hard to make solid calls in T20s anyway. things can change so fast. check out my posts on test matches and you'll see I'm no aftertimer.
