Official ICC 2015 CWC thread

[Seriously]

Chokers? Are you guys mad. I rather call for "BAD LOSERS YOU SAFRICANS"

 

[iDOL]

Did you even SEE the drop catch? How the hell are you meant to catch a ball when you're being side swiped by a diving JP Duminy?

Mind boggles

Check the replay he had already dropped the catch, it had passed through his hands by then.

Better yet what about Ab and his missed run out. The pathetic bowling unit, stupid brains trust that fielded semi fit philander.

Just bad choices all around.

 

[Sapcat]

Eish feel like a Liverpool supporter now...saying next time it will be ours

 

[DTBA]

The look on AB's face

 

[Fulcrum29]

Yep, check the replay. The ball went through his hands before JP even got there...

You would had also dropped the ball catching a runner coming up to intercept the ball in your blind.

We were royally entertained. That's really the point. I'm still a Proteas fan. You did well guys. Just not quite there tonight. No-one is more disappointed than you, I'm sure. But well done nevertheless. And thanks for your commitment and talent and skill. I really appreciate you sharing that with us.

 

[OrbitalDawn]

Glad for the Black Caps, too. Deserved winners.

Great game, all round. This is what you want from knockout cricket.

No choking, either. Beaten fairly by the better team on the day.

Proteas can be proud of their CWC campaign.

Its been the first knock-out game that's been a nail biter.Both teams fought hard,I would say Brandon Mcullum was the winner for NZ really put the pressure back on our bowlers with his aggression.

 

[Willie Trombone]

Glad for the Black Caps, too. Deserved winners.

And yet we nearly won. We're no doubt the best team out there lol.

 

[Bonk]

I am so disappointed and I haven't watched cricket in a long time. Well played NZ!

 

[Nerfherder]

I agree they never won one before so 100% behind them sunday

Yip

I like NZ as a team and now that we have matched them well it would feel like a nice second place if they took the cup.

Disgusting stuff! Proteas... where do I start....

Best to just leave it there.

Even though we just lost to New Zealand I have to say I don't dislike them.I actually like them,great cricketers,I hope they win this tournament.

100% I am rooting for them. Just don't tell them that (ask a kiwi if you don't get it )

Thanks for your sane comments. Those by so many other are embarrassing. What happened to being magnanimous in defeat - it counts for fans, too.

 

[OrbitalDawn]

Kallis and Strauss saying SA didn't lose the game, NZ won it.

 

[Willie Trombone]

Kallis and Strauss saying SA didn't lose the game, NZ won it.

Good for them. Very true.

 

[DTBA]

At the end of the game NZ was handing it to us again. But we never took it

This! We gave them a fight. Proud Protea supporter.

 

[Arthur]

Nice comments by AB. Just wish he didn't say "hurting" - that's pressure from the fans.

 

[OrbitalDawn]

At least AB is magnanimous.

Good captain.
