Another gem from the commentators, "Gee, i think South Africa has taken a leaf out of Australia's book".

**sigh**

Kallis, out. Ahh, Jacques, you were doin so well...

Time for Amla to shine now with Kallis gone. AB and Amla 100 run partnership is on the cards...

I think this game is going to be a hard one to win :), nothing has been easy since landing in aus and i don't see why this should be a cake walk.

Hope it is though.

They're blasting "Waltzing Matilda" over the speakers at the stadium.. ROFL!

I reckon the Aussies should adopt that as their official team anthem. They haven't played much of "If you're happy and you know it clap your hands" today. Strange that...:D

Mmm I wish Supersport would get a South African commentary team for the games... Seriously these biased buggers are really annoying :/

AB and Amla going well...

+1 on that one. Well at least SA Rugby is taking up the initiative (we always watch rugby on Mnet due to the SA commentating).

Sucks cos the radio commentery isn't any better either. Why didn't SS leave the test commentary team there for the ODI's as well?

It's never SA winning the game...it's always Aus losing it. Always looking for excuses and reasons why their team is rubbish. Seriously annoying.

28 overs to get 100 runs with 8 wickets in hand. Yeah, Australia definitely have SA under the hammer eh?

On the radio commentary... Dont think its all that bad. Neil Manthorp is bloody good in my opinion, and most of the aussies they get on radio is pretty good, way better than the tv dudes anyway. The rest of the SA team on radio is pretty $hite though.

Fckn pathetic. Really. How they can be allowed to commentate is beyond me. We should email them and give them pieces of our minds. Or we could go onto the cricinfo Facebook page and make some noise about it.
