Well I don't really care who we play, and neither should the players. Take each game as it comes and annihilate our opposition.
 
I still think we have a good chance on wednesday. We just have to concentrate and play to our potential. No team just keeps on winning world cup games after world cup games sooner or later that streak ends. Lets hope the aussie streak ends on wednesday.
 
South Africa will rue the lost match to Bangladesh... SA have a higher NRR than NZ now and would've probably won against SL. Basically they would be guranteed a place in the Final. Alas, that is not the case.

Wednesday here we come!
 
Now its time for BMT to kick in. This aint no home series game, this is the real thing - nervs take over, immense pressure has its victims, over anaylizing happens, some are over cautious, whilst others will be over confident. Can SA send OZ packing or will OZ's winning streak continue....? Its time for SA to show some BMT, But will they?

whether SA play them in the final or semi-final it does not really matter, venue would have been better tho. Point is.. they must win.

Actually I kinda think that the final might be sort of an anti-climax after the SA/AUS game, irrespecting of who wins on wed. This match would have made for a far more exciting final.

The last 2 world cups were over before the last 10 ov even if i remember correctly. This world cup has not had a close game either. The first clash between SA and Aus looked to be one but it fell apart :(

Sorry, which WC have you been watchin then? Remember the SA vs Sri match and Slinga Malinga?? If that wasn't close then blymie :rolleyes:
Then there was Sri vs Eng where Sri Lanka scored 235 all out and Eng fell 2 runs short.. 233/8.

:confused:
 
well the sri lanka game was just just pulled in by malinga's freakish 4 wicket haul. SA pretty much dominated it all the way thru. The England game i didn't watch..

I'm hoping todays game goes down to the last ov
 
Well I hope Bopara does well, he's a good player. Vaughn is also batting well. If they can keep wickets in hand they'll have a chance.
 
I want the West Indies to win, I actually kinda feel sorry for them. But I hope Bopara does well too, he seems to have a Kallis-like temperament.
 
Bopara run out. Pietersen in.

Did any of u catch umpire Coertzen tell Pietersen in Afrikaans that the bowler was coming "over the wicket"? It was clearly audible over the stump mike.
 
Nah didn't catch it. Well if he understands Afrikaans then so what, unless umpires are forced to speak English to the players which I dont think they are.
 
if he understands Afrikaans then so what.

yeah but at EVERY opportunity Pietersen reminds us that he is an Englishman and how he is playing for his country. So why would he want a SA umpire to talk to him in Afrikaans :confused: It's the queens english and nothing else. If Coertzen spoke to him in Afrikaans, then he must be ok with it which goes against his utter dislike of SA.
 
I think he's more against the quota system as opposed to being against SA altogether, which is a pretty reasonable stance.
