Interesting dynamic in the SA set up these days. I would imagine our top order batsman have been facing a lot of spin in their net sessions too. Can only stand them in good stead now and in future. I also wonder if JP's bowling has benefited from having Tahir in the squad?
 
Excellent performance from all the bowlers. Robbie p got the top order, the two quicks the middle and tahir wrapped the tail. Now for a good start and we should win.

Agreed.

We should sh1 t in but stranger things have happened. These low totals can sometimes trip you up. Should approach this game as if we chasing 240 and not 180.

As you elluded to if smith (due) and amla get away this game will be over in 40 overs or less.

Off form but his captaincy is so good right now that we can handle him being out of form. Tahir is the link we have been missing for world cup success. Quality spin and while he didn't do most of the damage his ability to kill the tail will win us this world cup.
 
Why don't they just go aggressive and ****ing bat, that total is so low!
 
They are going perfect, top order put in some runs now we will easily get the target.

Not even bothering watching because the result is a certainty :D.

Geesus!!! The only certainty is the game ends when the last wicket falls or the last run is taken. Assumption is the mother of all duck ups. This deck is horrible. Even the crappy English part time spinners are looking threatening.

No it is a 100% guaranteed that we will win. The game was over when england's last wicket fell :D, so you are right when their last wicket fell it was game over.

Not even the most epic choking team could mess this up.
