no Gibbs this time though

true but we have amla, who's strike rate is higher than people give him credit for, and de villiers..
also we dont have boeta dippenaar as an opener, who i think scored a duck that day? anyway, smith has gone cr@p so i guess that makes up for that..

Why didn't Smithers start with a spinner?

 

[BoomerPipe]

Disastrous first ten overs we can only hope they figure out how to bowl soon

 

[lilggg]

thankfully we have albie morkel today.. oh no no, i forgot, these wickets aren't for him.

lol

I think on this track it is more a case of batting FTW not bowling but who knows maybe the indians will find bowling easier on a batting paradise .

What use is albie when you send him in at the wrong times? Wasted talent, he should have opened for us .

If you thought the spinners would slow the rate like i did..think again.

Down leg,u already missed ur chance with the other review.Now only 1 left.It gets worse.

 

[Kayoss]

what a waste of a review

if it was Botha instead of Duminy...maybe, just maybe it might have worked -wishful thinking-

W00t w00t come on india you better get some big runs or else you going down!!!!!!!!! I want to see a huge total chased down today!!!!!!! Better than whipping them silly i reckon.

Anything under 350 and we are a sure thing .

ooooh reverse psychology...

 

[lilggg]

pff 350,450 i reckon.

I just worry about kallis chasing 350, not sure he is built that way but we will see. Kallis is due for a match winning innings though and a fast one.

maybe even 500!!!??
EDIT: only 10 an over they going at close to 9 with a batting powerplay to come....

agreed but i dont think 350 is on the cards.. they should pass that.. yuvraj, dhoni and pathan should fire on this wicket.

 

[Zyzzyva]

Boucher would have been a better bet thats for sure.

 

[sand_man]

Van Wyk catch a f ucking wake up!!!

 

[[Quattro]]

Van Wyk for president!

 

[sand_man]

Van Wyk catch a f ucking wake up!!!

oops he dropped it!!!

 

[Ronjay]

How do you have a national wickie that can't catch????

 

[Kayoss]

van wyk isn't having a great day but maybe he should open the batting for us.. could be his kind of pitch
