Heros and Villains..30
Scott Styris Regains Top Spot
In one of the crucial matches of the super eight, New Zealand pushed South Africa down with a fluent win. Now South Africa is in Must Win situation in their next encounter with England.
The hero of the day was undoubtedly Craig Mc Millan who collected 140 NCR points for his alround performance with 3 for 23 and 38 in 55 balls However Scott Styris with 56 in 84 balls collected enough points to move past Sanat Jayasurya and gain the top spot.
A B de Viliers was the villain of the day with -4 NCR points.
The top 10 NCR table is now as foillows.
