Re: Start your engines (again) Black Caps vs Proteas CWC

Its not going well for the Black Caps. Proteas are owning them

100/6 and they still need about 250 runs in 25 overs. Its game over if there is not some middle order magician for the Black Caps.

The conspiracy behind the Springbok road to victory deepens.

SA beats FRA by 1
SA beats ENG by 1
SA beats NZ by 1
This gives you 111.

If you add the numbers 29-28, 16-15, and 12-11 together, then it gives you 111.

It was the referee's 111th test that he officiated.
