       that's as close as it gets..
       MoM is Andy Flower

Match State: Zim won by 2 wickets

       Presentation coming up
       any comments to comms@cricinfo.com please
       Cronje comes forward
       We did not score enough and lost too many wickets up front
       245 255 would have been a good score on this pitch
       It looked a good wicket and we played too loose
       We missed a few run outs, but the captain batted very well
       This game was important to both side and we start off all square
        from here on it
       England on Friday will be the next hurdle
       Flower comes up, as winning captain and MoM
       Flower comes up, as winning captain and MoM
       It was quite a nervy time at the end, but the botys did well
       RSA did well to get themselves out of the early troubl;e
       We were always in with a chance
       We also lost too many wickets early on, but with a good tract out
        there we knew we just had to stay around and then chase it at the
        end
       I have not had a good record with the bat against South Africa,
        this one came at the right toime
       We had to just inch our way to the target and then chase at the end
       We are back in the competition and it is nicely set, so a good
        chance now of getting to the finals
       Thats it from Kingsmead, please be with us again from East London
        on friday RSA v ENg
