South Africa Skittle Devolte from England for 179 in Champions Trophy

South Africa Skittle Devolte from England for 179 in Champions Trophy

Karachi, Pakistan – The Wiaan Mulder South African pacemaker and Marco Jansen grabbed three Wickts each to Sender England for a sad game in their Champions Trophy Group B match in Karachi on Saturday.

Mulder finished with 3-25, while Jansen took 3-39, since England’s tickets never took off after they won the raffle and hit and ended at 38.2 overs.

The Spinner Keshav Maharaj had 2-35 figures, since England’s batting table presented an unfortunate image with Root Jeo the highest scorer with 37.

The fact that England was already out with two losses in so many games and his captain Jos Buttle resigned after this match left them discouraged.

Jansen eliminated the starter Phil Salt (eight), Jamie Smith (nothing) and Ben Duckett (24) in a first incisive spell of five overs.

Then he took a brilliant diving capture in the long Maharaj to send Harry Brook back by 19, ending a fourth 62 -run with root.

Only four races later, England suffered a massive blow when Mulder was beaten by Mulder and the problems worsened with Liam Livingstone fired by Maharj for nine.

The 44 root ball blow had a limit of six and four.

Buttler (21) and Jofra Archer (25) added 42 races for the eighth Wickt, but once Archer was fired by Mulder, the last two Wickts fell with the addition of only eight races.

South Africa had to put aside the regular pattern Temba Bavuma and Tony de Zorzi, which were wrong, while Captain Stander Aiden Markram was also forced to leave the field with an hamstring problem.

A South African victory will beat them a semifinal place together with Australia from Group B.

India and New Zealand, who are in Dubai on Sunday, are the two semifinalists of Group A.
