Forza another upset.

Especially against India.

Nice performance by my boys, although i'm still worried about Kallis form, if we are going to exceed expectations than he's the key to doing so. Nice to see Duminy getting his batting practice today & hopefully AB can continue his fine form, hopefully he isn't peaking to early. As for Imran Tahir, he's spectacular, can't wait to see what he does to England on Sunday.

There will be no upset against india

And lol,tournament's best bowler is afridi

 

[Byrone]

India had a narrow escape against England & we now know that Ireland > England. It's on like donkey kong.

B, I think Ze was making a reference to the 'Luck of the Irish'

I know, i was being slow.

Glad we sorted that out

 

[Byrone]

So T, what do you think of our boy, Imran Tahir?

I haven't seen him in action. I watched maybe 30 min of the SA vs Netherlands game but it was too boring But if his name is an indication of anything...he must be quite the cricketer

Boring? Your attention span has diminished as of late. For once SA could steal some talent after giving other nations most of our rejects.

My attention span has diminished as of late but I'd still not watch the Dutch play cricket. SA won with 200+ runs, how much entertainment could that have been? At least Pakistan gave Canada a chance today

What rejects are you referring to?

 

[icemaη]

Pietersen, Trott and the lot I suppose...

AB De Villiers was spreading the 6's & 4's all over the ground, what's not to like? Pakistan were ridiculously lucky with that match, fortunately for your boys, Canada are good at bending over & taking a beating.

Pietersen, Trott and the lot I suppose...

Yep the SA B Team aka England along with Ryan ten Doeschate. Ireland also had some SA rejects playing for them.

I felt sorry for Zimbabwe going down at 162/9 but Bangladesh are just horrendous, 56/6 on 17 overs.

 

[Byrone]

56/7 now.

 

[Byrone]

What a disgraceful performance by Bangladesh, 58 all out, lowest total in WC history.

[jukazem]

Wow! Just came out of a lecture, I wasn't expecting the match to be over already.

 

[Nicholas]

England

 

[WΏΏdy?]

I hope india chase sensibly and dont make rash decisions

 

[icemaη]

Did SA choke?

 

[Tommy]

Wonderful match between England and SA. England totally did well applying pressure on the Africans.

 

[Byrone]

Did SA choke?

Epically.

One would think 172 to win could be achieved in 30/35 overs with ease. England really upped their game in terms of fielding & batting, there's no way to deny it but they deserved that victory.

Basically what divided the two sides was extras & a winning mentality. Luckily it's a group fixture.

I saw the SA score at 107-3 and saw that England didn't score much... So did the smarter thing and went to bed... Missed a great match...
