With a run rate of under three, we are hardly setting the world alight again.

Another whitewash imminant?? :(
 
Fcucking dead beats, no captain, no plan, only talent with little brains at that
 
Gibbs needs a new job..
maybe drug dealing..
 
LOL. How many games are there int his series? Cant see us winning any of them...Not the tests at least :(
 
Give em a little break guys... Vittori is not that bad and the pitch may have something in it for the bowlers.. let's have our fielding session first. The captain thingy is an issue in my mind however.... funny how the most vocal in our country couldn't stop ripping Hansie off when he has had the best record of any post sanctions captains (by far).

Hansie is and was a hero.

true and you can only fix a match to lose, fixing a match to win would require consent from the opposing captain, also making him guilty. hansie was the best not only in SA cricket but also in world cricket
 
Hansie admitted to matchfixing, he confessed. So there's no argument for his innocence.

there's no denying his match fixing allegations, he was guilty. point im trying to make is that he was a successful captain, his win:loss ratio was unrivalled. imagine how many more we could have won had he not been involved in that. point being that one can easily fix a match to lose, all you do is play crap. but to fix a match to win would require the opposing captain to agree to lose which makes him guilty as well
 
Yeah, that's why they always fix it to lose :P Duh.
 
Didn't watch much of the cricket today, the current team is questioning my support of the game, the only thing that i'm looking forward too is seeing how Steyn bowls tomorrow, that about it, other than that, i hope they get beaten so we might get a Management & Team reshuffle.

point that i am trying to make is that he was a hero! A lot of things lead up to this alleged match-fixing. Its not as cut and dried as one would think..
 
Hansie Cronje was a thinking adaptive captain and game player. Together with Donald and De Villiers they could suddenly create a breakthrough and clinch a match against all odds. Smith is just waiting for something to happen, he is still waiting since the Austr-allien defeats and would wait forever. He do not know when and what attact is or when to buy time batting. His evil ways is transferred to the other batsmen. All practically out on the first day of a five day test for the umpteenth time, does he know test cricket at all or was he just a one dayer fluke?
