Proteas should be able to defend it, but I can't say I'm not a bit concerned. MasakadaH, Taylor, Sibanda, Chigumbura&Williams are a talelented experienced group of batsmen. The new youngsters Mutumbami&Jongwe are aggressive&productive with the bat. The fact that ZIM bat all the way down to #11 is what will be the biggest worry. They bat 50 overs, they win. Abbott needs to make the new ball talk today. Historically it's always been easier to chase on that ground.

In terms of match fitness, I'm alittle bit worried about Parnell&McLaren. Bit of arrogance by CSA not to organise a one day tour match for some of the ODI squad members?

@MickeyD, 10 working days or 10 calendar days? I can recommend the retirement thing :)

Working... or should I say "clearing out"? Even went down to the office this morning and continued with the shredding! It's amazing how much you accumulate over 30 years!!! :eek:


Wish they had a speed gun at the game.... want to see what Abbott is clocking.

Tahir, Tahir, Tahir... Why oh why are you in the side? Can you please get a wicket instead of bowling this crap?

I have no idea who Obaidur624 is supporting: "Zim need to stop Amla. If they become able to do so then they would have won 50% of the match. Hope Amla gets another century here!"

:D
