32.6
Parnell to Rahane, FOUR, did that carry? It was full and wide and Rahane went after it, and the edge flew low to the right of de Kock, who sprawled full-length to try and catch it. Looked like it fell just short, hit his glove, and ran away to the third man boundary
32.5
Parnell to Rahane, FOUR, short ball on off stump, pulled away in front of square, excellent placement, there was no one anywhere in the vicinity of that deep midwicket boundary

:mad:

Don't risk it against the other bowlers, cause Mr Candy Cane will be coming up next?
 
Commentator made a comment that Parnell is always on the fringes of selection.

Pathetic that he's the best we can offer facing the champions in a world cup match.

Pathetic.
 
There must be another person on the team who can chuck some part time spin so we can get this muppet off.
 
Even Behardien's medium pacers would have been better than this crap from Parnell!

He should not be in the side , therefore he won't be required to come on - that's what we're saying.

Yes I have already agreed on that from the start...but he is in the side, and you qustioned him being brought on...

...and when you are undisciplined, it appears luck is not going to favour you, another near miss to Parnell from a set plan of having the slip for him.

Curve ball... if Parnell plays, why not let him open the bowling? He is quicker than Steyn and Philander and gives the left arm variation. And before you reply, think about how many wickets Steyn, Philander and Morkel have taken today...

iDOL, this is the kind of sense you should be posting.

Given that he is in the team, Parnell is not being used correctly. No use bringing him on at 100/1

AB's captaincy has been poor (oh, I am a huge fan of him as one of the greatest players in world). A 7/2 field for Morkel which Amla immediately disbanded when AB went off.
He is too negative, totally teh opposite of McCullum...the nature of ODI and T20 these days is that wickets in hand will hurt the bowling team..,you have to attack more in the early overs.
 
Why doesn't De Villiers take him off. You don't keep a bowler who is going for an easy 10 an over on in the middle of an innings.

Wonderful player and useless captain, IMHO.

WTF are they still doing bowling Parnel? They don't need to as Philander, Steyn, Morkel and Tahir have plenty of overs left. That's 25 free runs in 2 overs there.
 
David Wiese, Rusty Theron and Merchant de Lange cant get ahead of Parnell for some reason...
 
I don't get this, they are bowling our 2 most expensive bowlers in tandem when neither of them need to be bowling at all.

DV is trying to get his overs out of the way...

The problem is that by getting them out the way like he did, he let Rahane get settled and gave them some nice momentum. He didn't need to do it from both ends.
