What i am saying is we came out with the mentality, lets not lose. We lost

What would have happened if we came out and said lets go for the win and if we lose so be it.

WE STILL FLIPPIN LOST :(

This is why we will never be world no1 we are to worried about losing to go for the win. What has prince got to do with this? where was prince when we whipped the aussies in aus? No point saying prince this prince that, our attitude of not losing is what lost us this match, we never even put up a fight.

block block block block out out out out block block block out out out flippin block block block, ahhhhhh for what!!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i hate the fact we are the kind of team who try play out draws and still lose.

Why is it a ridiculous post? Do you think a world number one team goes out and tries to draw a game, the aussies would have chased that total even if they had lost, they would have gone for it. Hense the no1 title.

I find your post about prince pretty ridiculous as well as he could have gone for low scores in both innings and was not around when we whipped the aussies in aus.

Charles the difference is we CHASED that total, we did not look like we where interested in CHASING today.

I think let me spell it out for you because clearly you cannot grasp my point.

We came out today and our mindset was not to lose, so we blocked and left deliveries and we lost anyway. Why did we not come out and look to score runs and win the game like we did WHEN WE CHASED THE SECOND HIGHEST SCORE EVER. So instead of coming out and trying to chase the total down and losing we tried to play for a draw and we still lost. Now i may be the only who thinks our negative frame of mind is the reason we lost.

I would rather see us lose trying to win than see us lose trying not to lose. I know this will hard for you charles but just think about what i am saying for more than a split second.

I hope you understand my point now.

Congrats to Oz!

Let me guess - this brain donour is one of those ultra cliched people that rejoice when South African rugby or cricket looses. Whats the "struggle" this time. Not enough players of Russian descent in the team. You protesting that the cricket team is wearing white clothing ????
