Holder picks up the wicket of 'run a ball' Miller

WIndies might regret that

WI not going back to Cottrell.

SA knock off the 259 with 7 balls unused, despite Miller taking a 3 over 'breather for his team'

35 sixes...ridiculous. What were they playing on , a tennis court ?

Centurion looks like a smallish ground at the best of times. Seemingly it tends to be a flat pitch with a lightning fast outfield and situated at altitude, which presumably means the bowlers have nothing going for them at all

Who'd want to be a bowler at Centurion?

If someone runs 100m in 9 seconds it's a peak human achievement. Someone scores a ton in 30 balls, it's because the conditions are crooked.
