WAY TO LATE !!!
Ok I’m out now, cheers all.
Rugby is a much better game….
32 – Different game…..!!
I’m off…..anyway…..have a nice evening.
India wins by 14 runs
If only the frontline batters did not doddle around…
I think the game was lost in the 5 over where we conceded 75 runs at the end
No superBul, you dont lose on a run chase with 5 wickets in hand period !!!
Bowled out, yes maybe, but not with 5 wickets in hand !!!
It’s BULLSHIT !!!
SA lost the game in their heads, as usual.
dWeePer
I agree !!!
I must add, in the context of the game Kallis did’nt do to bad, it’s just the followers who did’nt perform ….
You guys are harsh.
You can not afford to concede so much runs, this was the first game where the score was so high, in Windies the pitches are slow. You must keep the score below 160
There is a thing called mental toughness, just asked the Bulls, about 50% of their matches they came from behind to win. The Proteas have a record of losing no matter if they are in a good or bad position.
super
Maybe, but this team of ours, ag flok die Ingels. Hierdie span kan baie beter, hulle moet hulle koppe reg kry.
Ek se weer, as ‘n man uitgeboul word kan jy se jy het probeer !!! Die kak maak my naar, die manne moes vroeer probeer slaan het.
Same old, same old !!!
Ag, dis net krieket…… hehehe
By the way, every failure has a perfect and fitting explanation.
Success on the other hand, revolves around hard work and doing the right things at the right time.
Well we lose our first game. Close but not good enough.
Also not a good start to my bru for both games 🙄
And we choke again.. Morkel got Raina out off a no ball when he was still in single figures.. We’ll beat the Afghan’s in an unconvincing game then cock it up in the play off’s.. The more things change the more they stay the same. Our death bowling was awful and our batting line up is not balanced..
19.4
Mohammad Aamer to Nannes, OUT, well, what have we here!? Is it four in four!? Another yorker, another swish, another attempted bye, and yes, another run out. Good stuff from Pakistan in this final over, a touch farcical out there, it must be said.
SPD Smith run out 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
19.3
Mohammad Aamer to Smith, OUT, 141.1 kph, well it’s three wickets in three balls, but not a hat-trick! Another good yorker, Smith swished and misses, they attempt to run a bye to get Hussey on strike, Kamran is quick with the throw and Hussey is run out
MEK Hussey run out 17 (8b 1×4 1×6) SR: 212.50
Aamer on a hat-trick and Steven Smith to face.
19.2
Mohammad Aamer to Johnson, OUT, 141.4 kph, Aamer strikes! Lovely yorker and Johnson can’t get his bat down in time, it crashes into middle stump, lovely bowling
MG Johnson b Mohammad Aamer 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
19.1
Mohammad Aamer to Haddin, OUT, 134.7 kph, gone! No mistake from Sami at short third man, it was full and outside off, Haddin throws his hands at it, gets an edge and neatly taken. Dot ball is what matters at this stage, but the total is already imposing
BJ Haddin c Mohammad Sami b Mohammad Aamer 1 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 50.00
End of over 20 (wicket maiden) Australia 191/10 (RR: 9.55)
Mohammad Aamer 4-1-23-3
DP Nannes 0* (1b) Saeed Ajmal 4-0-34-3
What an amusing end to a very destructive Australia innings. Before those five wickets in six balls Australia ran rampant, first Watson and then David Hussey powering the ball around mercilessly. It would take something quite special for Pakistan to climb this mountain.
Captain Joker and his Chokers.
To me it looked like the Protea’s never wanted to win the game.
