CRICKET SA vs England

For me each series is important.

ODI's are separate from the test series and should be treated with respect. Yeah we won the test series but after winning the test the seal the series we have been very poor. The performance in the last test was poor and it hasn't improved in the first 2 odi's.

Had we won this odi series we would be number 1 in the odi series. England is a poor odi side as the west indies and new zealand has shown in the past few years by beating them on home turf. I am very unhappy with our current performance I see it as a total lack of professionalism.

I'm also unhappy with that, but in the bigger scheme it ain't the end of the world. Shirt happens, and we always bounce back.

+1

But the series isn't lost (yet). We can still pull it together and all will be well. But another #$%* up like the last 2 games and I'll be cheesed!

I agree. I don't believe in handing out early Xmas presents. We should have at least won this series 4 - 1.

We will wunit the Africa way, 4-0, at the rate we are going. Peterson seems to be our nemesis. He is a thinker, a big brainer, maybe it is just because he is a real Saffa.
 
Hey...the game is on now! Didn't realise it was an early one - Eng 14/0

Now come on boys!!

Amla was there as backup for Biff, so with Biff out for the rest of the series it was always gonna be Amla.

Now lets hope he gets a decent start.

We only really play cricket again in Dec (or should that be only play real cricket again in Dec) so that should be fine. Might do him some good.

We play Bangladesh in Nov and then Aus in Dec. With the Champions Trophy gone, there's not much happening.
 
South Africa: 1Herschelle Gibbs, 2 Hashim Amla, 3 Jacques Kallis (capt), 4 AB de Villiers, 5 JP Duminy, 6 Mark Boucher (wk), 7 Albie Morkel, 8 Johan Botha, 9 Morne Morkel, 10 Dale Steyn, 11 Makhaya Ntini

Squad for the game, the Morkel brothers in the side together, has that happened before?

EDIT: And we bowling first.
