2009 AUS tour to SA - Tests, T20s and ODIs

[killadoob]

Klusener is still my favourite SA player ever.

Pity him and smith could not get along because that oke was amazing.

Where is kemp? also really great player.

Klusener 1999 world cup, would never forget that 88.7% average =) and that confusion between him and Donald to that game that we tied with the aussies! ARG!!!
Kemp is playing in the English league now as far as I know, he wont come back

Kemp went to the rebel icl so is banned from international cricket.

Can't play in the domestic cricket either. They can only play in england since the court their overturned the icc rules.

what is the Rebel ICL anyways? I keep hearing about it but heh no budge

Its the other 20/20 tournament held in india. It was organized first before the IPL. Its not recognized by the ICC or BCCI.

Big game starts tomorrow...
New openers, new captain Aus pulled out 2 strike bowlers for what ive heard, some very good newbies the one guy has an average of 14!

 

[killadoob]

They did what we did to them

I guess its similar to the old Rebel tours SA use to have?

I hope we can salvage some pride from this game. 1hr 20 min to go!

Batting looks a lot more steady

Now if both prince and Khan(sp?) perform what will happen once smith comes back?

Drop prince cause he isnt an opener, or drop Khan cause he is the newer player?

Not really.

The rebel tours came to SA in defiance of int'l sanctions against SA.

The only thing that the ICL has done wrong is to be in competition with the IPL, the BCCI's baby.

Well this is the last test, so for the ODIs, drop Kallis and include Smith.

odi's without kallis would be an amazing idea, although he would cry like a little girl like he did when they dropped him from the 20/20

 

[dominic]

Sure Kallis has had an amazing career, but he doesn't come across as captain material ie someone who can pull the guys together and motivate them to new levels.

Ricky says he will try but sometime the SA bowling is just so bad that even though they try and get out they just can't.

And so the test begins with Ponting winning the toss AGAIN! Anyway, good to see A Morkel in the team, gives our batting a bit stronger look.

Jackie is murmuring to himself: "If there was a 4th test Kallis should've just walked to the pitch, say bugger the toss and asked ponting "...so ricky, what would you like to do today..?"...shake hands, and walk off. Losing 6 in a row is just insane...though being 2-3 down is even more insane......makes you wonder doesn't it..."

ROFL ROFL!!!!
