South Africa vs West Indies Champions Trophy 2013 DLS Drama ends in Ultimate TIE

[00:00:00]South Africa against the West Indies.

[00:00:03]Live from the Cardiff [music] Wales Stadium, the Champions Trophy 2013, Group B.

[00:00:14]It's been a rainy day today, but now looks pretty good with clouds overhead, but they don't look like rain clouds.

[00:00:21][music] And the sun is out as well.

[00:00:25]the customary huddle of the teams that are to take the field. We're away.

[00:00:32][cheering] >> Oh, it's been thrown up by the keeper, but how >> Oh, well fielded. Oh, what a piece of fielding that is.

[00:00:57]Oh dear. Oh, >> that's well played by Colin Ingram and just helping it onto the on side and he gets [applause and cheering] a boundary.

[00:01:23]nudged their thinking too and they're going to get back.

[00:01:28]>> Good running.

[00:01:32]That's a super shot.

[00:01:35]Just lent on it really onto that on side but heavy the outfield.

[00:01:44]>> Oh yes, what a shot. That's a superb shot.

[00:01:49]All timing.

[00:01:52]And it's gone across for >> well played. It's the width that was on offer [applause] and Ingram accepts it beautifully.

[00:02:03]Warnings.

[00:02:07]>> Nicely played by Ingram. Is thinking too and is going to go back. He'll get back too comfortably.

[00:02:17]It's nicely done.

[00:02:20]We'll pick up another couple. Oh, Colin Ingram who started.

[00:02:26]>> Well, that's massive. That's gone. Thank you very much, Sunil Narin. Very rarely does he get this kind of treatment.

[00:02:38]>> Perfect distance between the ball pitching and where he met the ball. So, you can get under the ball and that happens.

[00:02:46]>> Great delivery, >> Tino. Best is excitable.

[00:02:55]This has gone in the gap. Has it got the legs?

[00:03:00]Four runs.

[00:03:02]Ball.

[00:03:07]Chris Gale has taken the pace off. That could have been two consecutive boundaries. Now this is interesting.

[00:03:12]This partner, there it comes. Effects of the instruction. The visit from the substitute fielder.

[00:03:22]>> Well, clearly he's a big striker.

[00:03:25]>> It was in the slot. And have a look at Ingram. Magnificent strike. Huge strike.

[00:03:34]He's gone short after those two sixes.

[00:03:37]He's not bowling anything up to the batsman. But Ingram equal to the task.

[00:03:41]It's a good 50 from the young man.

[00:03:47]12 is gone. It's 80 side taken on the third attempt. Is it? Yes.

[00:03:55]Chris Gale finally is able to have control of the ball. He was batting well.

[00:04:03]Samuels brought into the attack picks up a wicket of the first ball. Chris Gale finally >> I think Hashia Mambla is far superior a batsman to get out in this fashion. I >> I think he's he's playing him off the pitch. [cheering] >> He runs beautifully will get back in short extra cover.

[00:04:30]>> It's found the gap. Very often you miscue that kind of a shot you get more runs.

[00:04:37]this odd length, you probably could have got a couple of wickets, but credit to South Africans. Call is for two, easily taken in the end.

[00:04:46]>> A guy with real pace. That's okay. For the others, it needed to be fuller. That is a good shot. Just a touch of width from Samuels and Ingram onto it. Last couple of deliveries again. Oh, look at that. Right where the slip was. He's nicked it straight through and gone for four.

[00:05:10]>> High in the air. Is it a chance? No, it's not. Way over the top. Top edge, but pace has taken it. Such a consistent and tremendous player. Pulled it. Edged shot boundaries >> again. full through the offside this time and another boundary. So a six and then a four to finish the over gone high in the air. It's a chance taken. Good catch Darren Bravo I think it is out on that boundary at mid wicket middle it instead of going towards midon he went toward mid wicket and in process he got the top edge and very welljudged car.

[00:05:55]>> West Indies picking it up there. So, who's going to win? A little neck there, is there? I think so. Yep. You betcha.

[00:06:02]Bravo round the wicket. And Duminy does not last long today. Just the two for him.

[00:06:07]>> It was a short delivery. Followed him through around [music] the wicket and got the faint outside edge and very simple catch.

[00:06:18]>> Wow, that's nice.

[00:06:21]Second ball. There's an extra man inside the circle for Bravo trying to ex will go hard. Got Miller McLaren. There's plenty of batting left in the shed. It's a lovely shot to pick up a comfortable three.

[00:06:36]Big chase on that meter off the bat. Got three runs.

[00:06:42]>> Wow.

[00:06:43]It's all you can say about that. That is extremely powerful to finish the over.

[00:06:48]149 for three.

[00:06:53]Oh, what a catch.

[00:06:56][cheering] >> Darren Bravo.

[00:07:03]It was a slow delivery.

[00:07:06]Hit directly into the mid wicket region, but not directly.

[00:07:13]Had more of a chance of doing that with Dillia still out there. It have been more confident.

[00:07:26]>> Narin, >> what? [applause] That is some timing.

[00:07:41]>> Swat six.

[00:07:45]Don't think he minds. [laughter] just got close enough to it and played through the line back.

[00:07:58]>> Catches the call. Didn't quite time it off Duplo, but got it over the 30 yd circle. Deep back with square back.

[00:08:08]Should be two.

[00:08:18]>> Catches the call. Well, nobody's going to catch that unless they're in the crowd.

[00:08:24]Didn't quite get all of it, but got enough.

[00:08:27]>> Look at this six. See how high it has gone. Could easily have thought that will come down inside the field.

[00:08:35]>> That's off the edge.

[00:08:38]>> [cheering] >> has gone for four. The third man and finally up catch it goes past Chris Scale who's in the circle. Couple of runs.

[00:08:56]Oh yes, good strike. David Miller gets it all the way for six.

[00:09:04]Well, of just 40 deliveries.

[00:09:10]Sweep offside.

[00:09:13]Catches the call. Will it get there? Oh, no, it doesn't. Well, he does get there, but he can't keep it in hand.

[00:09:24]He's got all of that certainly.

[00:09:27]Oh, there was some taking cover. It's gone for six.

[00:09:33]Short or full.

[00:09:41]>> Well played. Very well played for four.

[00:09:44]It was very slow and he had to wait for it. Faf duply.

[00:09:52][cheering] >> Oh, has he got him? Has he got him?

[00:09:56]They're going upstairs.

[00:10:03]Well, there you go. That looks out.

[00:10:06]>> Man, that was the year before.

[00:10:08]>> That's gone.

[00:10:10]It's gone a long way. All the way for six. Tried to bounce her first up and was punished.

[00:10:19]It's up in the air. Should be taken.

[00:10:22]Comfortable catch for Darren Sami. It's Miller who goes South African innings.

[00:10:34]It's going to be a buy. But slower ball from Dwayne Bravo and South Africa end 230 for six. 73 from 63.

[00:10:47]That's Ingram and Amla 23 from 27.

[00:10:50]Dillas 37 from 26. Duply and Miller at the end putting a partnership together in excess of 50 and getting South Africa to 230.

[00:11:00]>> The afternoon Pommy. It's a good score.

[00:11:03][music] Very good score I would say. And >> deep mid wicket.

[00:11:09]>> Good hand on it.

[00:11:12]>> There's the hand. Okay.

[00:11:20]That's >> the outside edge.

[00:11:24]That's well played.

[00:11:27][applause] >> He should get there as well. Four runs to Johnson Charles. Bowlers.

[00:11:35]>> Oh, look to go. Didn't get to the pitch of it. In the end though, able to get it over the infield and get back for three.

[00:11:46]>> Good intent shown.

[00:11:48]>> Former in one day internationals. Oh, >> that's a good start. That length pushed up is normally one who will b >> bag four [applause] one n whether you want to be coming back from a little injury either cold bit of time to warm up.

[00:12:11]>> Oh, dropped him. It came back quickly and it struck the hand of Dale Stain.

[00:12:19]the left hand.

[00:12:24][cheering] Wow. Power four and then a rock back and he's found the middle of that bat.

[00:12:37]Try and get one at least.

[00:12:41]And got more than that now. He might have four. Will it go all the way? I think it might just. Yeah. Keys.

[00:12:51]That's gone a long way up in the air.

[00:12:52]It's the keeper's catch. Devil's takes it. Stain is back. Stain gets a wicket. It's >> That's well played. Very well played for four. [applause] That's a proper cricket shot there.

[00:13:15]goes big straight flat six. Chris Gale has magnificently done it.

[00:13:23]>> Big shot. Stutter and shiver a little.

[00:13:27]Big shot. Had the confidence to clear the man at quite easily.

[00:13:33]Runs possibly four. Played it well.

[00:13:36]Played it late. Good shot. Good strike.

[00:13:44]sweeps and sweeps well. What a good shot.

[00:13:48][applause] >> Good choice of shot from Dumini.

[00:13:54]Shot. Big shot. Lovely piece of timing.

[00:13:57]Finding the placement through the offside and of course releasing some pressure.

[00:14:06]Big pull shot. Magnificent shot from Chris Gale.

[00:14:10]He's got such vast range. Making his mark to Chris Gale.

[00:14:17]>> Gone at point. Good delivery. Good change of angle from Morris. He richly deserves this because Gail was looking for the angle. Team no end.

[00:14:29]Short again. Just looking to glide it off the pace of the bat but did not.

[00:14:36]Oh, >> that's a good delivery. Pace in bounds from Morris.

[00:14:42]Big shot. [cheering] Will it make to the fence on the full?

[00:14:46]No. One bounce over the rope.

[00:14:53]Once again shorter in length and once again Smith very keen to maneuver the ball away towards the leg side. Hashimla [screaming] appeal. Aar is not convinced at all.

[00:15:05]pick up another leg by you know I think uh where did it pitch it pitched in line impact in line I think he's gone runs four bravo opens his account with a boundary gets it past the man in the slip cordon Ingram was the man he coach That's a lovely flick shot. Bravo puts it into the gap.

[00:15:42]Great piece of timing.

[00:15:48]Well timed and once again has got some work to do. Does well with the sliding stop.

[00:15:55]>> Samuels wants to come back. There's an easy run out here.

[00:15:58]>> Well, it's not going to swim or swing.

[00:16:01]Beautiful shot. Straight drive.

[00:16:06]Nine runs from the over. 108 for four.

[00:16:12]He's found the gap [cheering and applause] and Amla has given up this time. The ball has been really following him. Good start this for Pollard. Did it.

[00:16:22]But just our viewers back home need to see that to be sure.

[00:16:25]>> Experienced campaigner. Short delivery pulled. Beautiful shot. There's no fielder there. He's slightly he's good stop there by Morris. I thought [applause] >> Yeah, he can do that. Samuels and that's the second one that's gone out of the park.

[00:16:46]It's a huge blow from Samuels and much needed as well.

[00:16:55]Another short ball, but this is sometimes the result. The batsman hits it with conviction. Very often you get that kind of again short and again he's gone for the lofted shot on the off side, [applause] bounces inside, will get four runs and Samuels is now the length.

[00:17:18]>> There it comes. Slower delivery and that's turned out to be the second dot ball of the Teamers.

[00:17:26]He's taken a bit of a gamble here which is at the moment not paying off.

[00:17:32]>> It's difficult for bowlers. He darted it in but picked up beautifully with nice follow through. 78 m. What a hit.

[00:17:45]>> Here he goes again. That's another four.

[00:17:47][applause] What we are watching currently is West Indian power.

[00:17:55]This is a ground shot and might just find the gap. This [cheering] is brilliant batting. That's a ground shot on a sluggish outfield.

[00:18:07]>> Good pace. His desk now.

[00:18:12]Oh, there's no fielder there. So, he's safe. [snorts] Mind you, new rules. Just four fielders outside the circle. That might There he is. The short ball comes in.

[00:18:22]It's almost like a telegram for Pollard.

[00:18:26]Sat up nicely and they've got their nine runs from the over. 158 for in the attack.

[00:18:33]This is a good shot. Enough bat on this one. He's not running so he knows he's hit that pretty well. What a start to the over. [applause] Tails change. Second ball. Gone. Full length delivery.

[00:18:46]And he's a real master of variation in length. And this is a huge setback because of the kind of form that he was in.

[00:18:53]>> Was the seam length delivery and metal stump was in this short delivery. It's gone probably wide as well. It's all happening here under pressure.

[00:19:09]Tell you what, five runs there.

[00:19:14]>> He's missed it. That's a dot ball.

[00:19:17]>> Go with the length.

[00:19:21]Will this carry all the way?

[00:19:24]>> Sluggish outfield. It's seen some rain today. So Szobi will get there now.

[00:19:31]>> He's turned away. He's gone past that man. They should come back for two. I will.

[00:19:41]Oh, straight and hard. And four.

[00:19:44]Midoff is up. So we looked for the slower ball and it was a little full.

[00:19:56]>> Oh, a chance. Be quick for a big goes over the top for four. Gets a half volley does the West Indies skipper and he puts it away.

[00:20:09]So 10 from the over. One for 34.

[00:20:13]High in the air down to third man. It's a chance, is it? It will be taken. Yes, it will. Dale Stain takes the catch and that is a big blow for South Africa. You can see the rain now in the background.

[00:20:27]West Indies need to be 196.

[00:20:30]I think they're coming off. They're coming off after 26.1 190. The West Indies are level with pass scores. 230 for six and the West Indies replying with 190 for six.

[00:20:43]Unfortunately, the weather intervened.

[00:20:44]We had a Duckworth Lewis tide match.
