That will be my only chance to get any points if my chosen bowler takes wickets. 

Cheers..

Reeza failed 3 times and I did not even look at him while picking names.

Cheers..

Are they playing this way just because they got selected or wat 

Or Nepal bowling is good.  Don know 

 . Saw only last few overs 

Kushal Bhurtel - Thanks a lot, the wicket was a bit slow, I just bowled the right line and I'm very happy. We have never beaten a Test nation before, but this is a great chance to create history. The wicket is a bit slow, but I think we'll do well

Change of venue and surface hasn't changed the fortunes of the South Africans batters. This is another poor show with the bat and yet, it's their highest total of the tournament. That 115 is the most they've managed so far speaks for itself. Yet, they've also got three wins in three games. So the onus is once more on their bowlers. Nepal were really good with the ball today. There was a lot of purchase for the spinners and they made great use of the conditions. Their spinners flighted the ball well and kept things really slow. They were a little scratchy in the field as a couple of catches went down but they've still managed to restrict South Africa to a very chaseable total here. Kushal Bhurtel was the pick of the bowlers with 4 wickets to his name. Now he'll be back opening the batting shortly as the chase begins.
