Set South Africa 210 to win in the final 30 overs imo.
Jimmy will get it bending out there.
Dream on, no way are we going to give them 30 overs to bat
not a f**king chance - for a start we would have to score at ten an over to get there
Nope, bat for the rest of the day
How is this business achieved, is it some sort of negotiation?
Who gets to say? Is this essentially a 'next goal wins' scenario?
Cricket is so confusing
There can be negotiations but in this case it would solely be the decision of the England
captain. Or the weather gods :prayforrain:
Is it their decision because they are batting or catching?
Also, can they not just set an unrealistic target or is there some sort of formula to determine the target score?
it is the batting side's option. They can set any target they want, the trick us
To set one that it is unlikely to be chased down but tempting enough for the chasing side to go for it and thus be more likely to lose wickets. It is basically complicated, j
Thanks, I'm not really any the wiser here though
It's very similar to the football actually. Just imagine the balance and fluctuations in play
extended over five days, rather than just two 45 minute halves.
