This is what happens when you have a lapse of concentration in the last over of your innings. Parnell's one run on 48.5....

And WI has done it... SA snatching defeat from the clutches of victory. Not that I had any faks to give for this game, but honestly this is not acceptable... Or have we figured out a way it doesn't work? Either way losing sucks!

I would have bowled parnell.

Yes he's poor most of the time but his last over he swung the ball and looked good.

Also Morkel is the most overrated player in SA.

Windies deserved to win... you tend to lose matches when you don't pick your best team.

Yeah. Resting 5 of them. Did not help that Morkel misfired. Or Parnell sabotaged the final 6 balls of our innings.

Happy though for the Windies. Happy for them.

I think Abbott is the most overrated player in SA.

But. But players need a rest... BS! THEY NEED TO PRACTISE! Always pick your best side, because it is them who will fight in a final!
It sounds more dramatic doesn't it

Yep! The stats would just say SA lost a one day test against the WI on 25/01/2015. Nothing else!

True... And the way I am carrying on takes credit away from WI, which in a way is unfair. I like them, always have, always will. Bottom line is they won. I am glad for them. Well done WI!
