Playing three spinners specialist Twenty20 game is always the peninsula full of risks, given the fact small, slow pitches and hitters want to be all things to do. Add to that the erratic Shaun Tait - that focus on precision and extreme dependence on the rate mutually exclusive - and the risk is magnified.
Nathan Lyon, Adil Rashid and Aaron O'Brien played the whole of South Australia's victory in the country Big Bash, taking 29 wickets in seven matches with less than seven passes over. This is a return of more than four wickets per game a very reasonable cost. But it was Australia, where the criteria are larger and the wickets are faster, giving the bait a better chance of success. It can be the striker out of the hole in the long run, the MCG, despite smashing one off in the middle of the bat. In India, where the lower limits, even on a regular basis to go mishits sixes.
Unfortunately for South Australia, they met with JJ Smuts, who was the relationship with almost all attempts. When Rashid had gone to Lyon and 34 in four acquisitions, Michael Klinger was very little he could do to stop the momentum of the Warriors. O'Brien does not have an impact either, and the three spinners disappeared for 69 in eight overs wicketless.
Tait had acknowledged before the game that it was feared that South Australia is the spin-heavy tactics can backfire. It did not help that Tait was the most erratic, leaking a game resolution of 53 four overs. Tait finished ODI cricket after the 2011 World Cup to concentrate the energies of his frail body on the T20. But its length is full or short, one wonders if this is the right format to match the remainder of his career, including the gates, where his pace will first lose some of its venom.
Klinger acknowledged that his team is not very Bowl. "Forget deliveries too often," he said. "We tend to work very well what we want to provide Bowl, but now affects them." With a specialist bowlers failed to bundle, Klinger had no choice but to turn to the average rate of Daniels, Harris and Christian. Christian was an IPL to forget a few months ago, but today he managed to limit Harris, the Warriors' accompanied by payment.
One wonders how large the margin of defeat would have been if the Warriors do not get up after 12 reports of the hunt, knowing that the game was theirs. They could afford to do that, we have the luxury of all attacks and harsh international target of 172 seem to be much stiffer. Once Lonwabo Tsotsobe took two wickets in the beginning, was always going to be a struggle for South Australia.
"Everything went as planned so far, we have high quality ... Lopsy [Tsotsobe] is one of the best bowlers in the Twenty20 world," says Botha. "You can play up to three six-over was great for us."
