Cricket world cup discussion thread

[Ronjay]

while we're at it, how about we ignore the fact that he's the leading wicket taker for SA at the world cup

Exactly. If we lose the tournament, it wont be his fault.

Maybe I shouldn't give Morkel praise, then he will keep on being tighter.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

we won't bowl full tosses at the end though.

Morkel's line today has been ****ing useless.

Lol so we won't give 100 off 5, but 60 off 5 on this wicket can still make a big difference!

 

[Creag]

Another poor over from Morkel

I think the wickets will come. we need to be patient. keep it tight and build pressure.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Morkel needs to chill for a bit. Bring Jacques in - he's usually good at breaking partnerships.

Can someone tell me why the selectors are still not selecting Tsotsobe ahead of Morkel?

What has morkel done wrong? If anything we should have left out tahir rather. We not playing to our strength in terms of attack.

Could be totally off the mark but i reckon we have way too much spin.

I Disagree, I think the spinners are going to strangle the Kiwi's

Silly Proteas assumed "balance" meant 3 spin, 3 seam lol!!
Morkel was always going to be useless on this track.

The Proteas are not bowling well and attacking, it looks like they waiting for NZ to slip up... dangerous.

Tahir?? No way dude, he's done very well in the games that he's played so far? If we need to play a spinner less, then Botha should be dropped. Botha being able to score 20 off 15 balls is not a good enough reason to keep him, because he doesn't do that consistently.

current score: 78/2 after 20.3

 

[Polymathic]

I'm not too positive about today. Hence why I'm not watching the match

 

[wise_guy]

Exactly. If we lose the tournament, it wont be his fault.

If we do lose, fingers will be pointed toward the guy that had a bad game,be it Peterson or any other player.Its inevitable.

 

[killadoob]

78/2 kallis and botha keeping the RR way down but ross is set and ryder looks like he could go the distance, so we best get ross out before he decides the time has come to explode.

Don't give up man! Still a long way to go!

No cricinfo mobile?

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Yeah go to cricinfo mobile on your phone, it uses like ~2KB every few seconds so it won't chew a lot of data. 1MB can go a long way.
