what a win for South Africa, they did lie full low, graved in the hollow ground, but came back magnificently
the partnership of Kallis and Pollock was the match-saver, whilst the ever-dependable big hitting of Lance Klusener was the match winner
and so by beating Pakistan, South Africa prove themselves the equal of Bangladesh
presentations: Wasim... "I think Shoaib bowled a bit short in the ends... Moin deserves all the credit [for the target]"
Cronje looks a bit too miserable for a winning captain... "obviously with Lance at the crease we fancied our chances... the ways the guys crawled out of that showed tremendous character....."
Klusener is the Man of the Match: says his bat is a brand new one and that was a nice start for it
that's all for today from CI. Tomorrow's game is NZ v ZIM, only 7 months ago they had to face the ignominy of playing off against each other in the Wills International Cup for the right to be in the final 8, tomorrow it's a Super 6 match.
