I was hoping they would beat Australia. Posted: 21 Sep 2007, 10:21
ah, so yet again SA cricket fails when we reach any kind of big match situation....
what a joke of a game, we deserved the beating!!!!
best moment for me was when they asked graeme smith if we missed kallis out there today......

Once again the top order fails.

ROFL...
That should read "Get a Captain"
Graeme Smith is no use as a cricketer, much less as a captain. He uses the predictable standard strategies and can not work under pressure...
his words "We never got into the game"... WTH... what were you doing then? Smoking some pot?
Where is Loots Bosman and his Eagles assosciate Batting king? They keep on putting the 'experienced' guys in and refuse to let the guys that have proven themselves in Pro20 play. Van der Watt and Morkel was given a chance this time. How many OTHER players are there that have truly proven themselves in the provincial games that do not get a chance to play?
And- WHY WHY WHY bring Kallis to a Pro20 game in your life? As much as he can stand, he is not a standard high run rate scorer - That is not the way Kallis plays, not his style... Thus it would have helped them SQUAT...

Loots Bosman was injured on the tour 2 Zim b4 the 20/20 WorldCup. The comcussion ruled him out of the competition.
SA choked once again in a game that counts. India weren't marvelous, something the Aussies will prove in the semi-final.
Graeme Smith is a "safe" captain but I fear that he started the rot yesterday with another untimely batting collapse. Lets be honest, that score India posted wasn't a daunting task pre-first ball.
Kallis would've meant squat to this squad in this format of the game. I fear that Kemp and Pollock are now over the hill, and the sooner the selectors realise it the better. AB also had an atrocious 20/20. OMW ... so-called "future of SA cricket" my butt
Time to build a new team. Unfortunately, with the same 'ol faces running the sport, dynamic selections and a culture of having a killer instinct won't be seen anytime soon.
I'm disillusioned with our national team to say the least (seeing as cricket is my #1 sport).

I think yesterday India Fielded the best in the tournment. The Auzzies/SA/etc have all dropped catches.
India Batted well on a bowlers wicket, SA dont deserve to go through. No excuses, You in you own Backyard.

I'll tell you why Graeme Smith shouldn't be captain, he likes his drinks and partying a little too much. Two weeks before the Zim tour, I saw him(and Kemp) out 2 nights in a row, completely sloshed.
And wait for it, best of all, last night, day after we lost, he was there again partying it up with Kemp(always them 2). As a Captain he should be more focused on the game. I'm not saying he can't party, but not as much as he does, and that's why he can play so **** sometimes, cause he has a load of talent and is very strong, could be a brilliant batsmen, one of the best in the world, if he just tried harder and focused more.

I was on the Kingsmead scoring team for the India vs Australia game this evening. One of the best games that I've been involved in for a long time.
So, the final is India vs Pakistan - any bets? Bear in mind that their previous encounter was decided by a bowl-out...

Gotta love it when the aussies do a SA and choke. Yes thats right the aussies managed to choke last night not at a Proteas level but still.
Needing only 10 an over from the last 4 with 7 wickets in hand they managed to totally stuff it up.
Made my weekend. Very glad that I will see India vs Pakistan on Monday.

I am glad India beat Australia. The critics said it would be a walkover for Australia. Especially at Sky sports.
