ICC World Twenty20 2012

Umar Gul to Hussey, FOUR, and Australia are through to the semi-finals! They have huffed and puffed to get here, Gul bowls it short and Hussey makes a bit of room and slashes it wide of backward point, he punches the air

:cry:
 
I think we should just lose to India and let the humiliation be complete. Interesting in that there are no unbeaten sides in the tournament any more.
 
The one time we get behind Aus, the bastards let us down. Maybe Protea supporters are just destined for heartbreak.
 
My problem is that it always feels like we come out losing. Not that we were beaten but that we actually lost it through poor play, selections and captaincy. I wouldn't mind so much if we picked the best side, played well and were beaten. But that's not the way it works for us. We actually go out of our way to lose these things.

Maybe India does need to whip our asses and give the management food for thought. If we win, they may just think that everything is still ok.
 
Pakistan can still be knocked out but it will be tough for India now, since Australia lost by a big margin.
 
SA bowl first, india need to score 160 and win by 32 runs, or score 140 and win by 31 runs....tough task, so I guess they gonna come hard....

And we are still messing things up:

"South Africa have made two changes - Faf du Plessis replaces Richard Levi and Albie Morkel comes in for Wayne Parnell."

Finally they replace Levi but they still leave out Tsotsobi. My guess is that was the last game of cricket that Levi plays for SA and probably Parnell, I wouldn't mind if this was the last game of cricket that AB captained. Good player, lousy captain. You learn your trade at the provincial level, not on the national stage. They chased away our best captain for the shorter over games.

Parnell is a bloody wart. He's not going anywhere anytime soon.

Agree with you on this, have no idea who can take over from ab, there no one else apart from Botha, who I felt should be captain for the shorter version of the game....pitty he leaving. And NO, not amla....
