I agree here. I'd rather lose trying this method than lose tamely as in the Bangladesh match.
And then the stats would have shown 119 all out!![]()
That is called assumption.
And atleast it would have looked as if we tried !

Thats not how you play cricket!!
What you do is hit one 4, then a couple singles per over, over after over, till the 43rd over. Then you go out fighting!!!
That is in the ideal game....
When your stuck with 2 wickets and need 11 runs a over... You go down fighting. Not playing like a little group of school children during their school break.
Why? Australia pull it off nine times out of ten, why can't South Africa?And then the stats would have shown 119 all out!![]()

That is predictable cricket. Fortunately mostly club cricketers and a few sub continental cricket teams play that way.Thats not how you play cricket!!

So? Doesn't mean we can't pull it off (oh hang on - SA has pulled it off before)You see now....

*sigh* - why is that the only game that you can remember? How about SA vs your favourites (Pakistan)? SA: 392/6 (all guns blazing from the word go), Pakistan limped to all out in the 47th over - for a measly 228.Lol!! Oh yes 438 right? How could I forget...![]()
Rubbish - it's only their "B-Plan" during the middle overs of a game.Ya well if you noticed, thats Aus plan B!![]()
Their success rate may be 59%, but you'll never see them just give up like we did. I don't mind losing once in a while, especially if it was a good match. The Bangladesh match has made me really angry because of the way we just gave up.
