I am getting distinct memories of that dreadful semi- against Australia. Such pathetic cricket from top players. They look clueless. Panicking. :mad:

Disappointing but hardly surprising, what has Berhardein done to warrant a place in this team, i dont think anyone can answer that question. Amla also at fault today.

Nah we were always in the game, all Behardien had to do was stay in with Miller. He couldn't even do that...

At least we got close enough to their score so that our nett run rate isn't affected too badly...

Our tactics and selection is just awful.

Why is Amla batting so slow? He bats quicker in 50 over cricket ffs.
AB, Miller and Albie bats too low.
Our tail is too long - Steyn batting at 8?

We are too bloody conservative. Why do we always try to leave things so late? We bat slowly till the run rate gets to 10 then we try and hit.

Happens ALL THE BLOODY TIME AND NOTHING CHANGES!!!!

Meh.

Anyway I'll feel a bit better if Corey Anderson destroys the poms next :)

So far all the cricket/rugby results this weekend have been wonderful, England to win next and the old English outpost to beat the bulls later in the rugby.

Considering the bipolar nature of our batting lineup, we can't afford to lose the structure and stability Amla provides. He affords other batsmen the opportunity to take risks...

Lopsy needs to make way for Parnell. Can't have so many guys who can't bat in this format.

So? Amla couldnt even get a run a ball, Behardien should have done better i agree but thats just typical from him.
