***Official*** South Africa In Australia

Australia to get owned today. And I mean smashed,

EDIT: And Darsh goes. Nice.

SA have 2 wickets and have generally bowled rubbish - hate to see what happens if they actually bowl well

At least Hussey will get the chance for a long innings

Ponting was clearly out, bull**** umpiring saves his ass again.

Referring to the LBW?

If so, that's far from 'clearly out'.

 

[pasag]

Ponting goes from looking horrible to awesome in about one over.

So if Albie Morkel wasn't such a good hitter, he would not justify a spot in the South African ODI team because IMO he is not up to as a bowler. Goes for why too many runs per over. Whilst not everybody is as accurate as Nathan Bracken, but 5.18 runs per over is too high.

Shows the weakness of the 2 attacks when both he and Hopes are front-line bowlers - having said that he'll probably get 5 today and should've had Ponting there

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Haha wtf.

 

[pasag]

Haha, horrible appealing from SA.

 

[cowboysfan]

saffers didnt deserve that wicket.

 

[pasag]

Been close to two years since Hussey has tonned up in an ODI. Has a good chance today coming in so early, though not looking great.

 

[pasag]

Good stuff from Ponting. Needed this.

 

[aussie]

Was Pollock that renowned for his death bowling?

Off the top of my head, can't recall him bowling there in the last WC. From memory, Smith looked for Pollock to get his 10 out of the way as soon as.

Can't remember any specific instances, clearly right now myself TBH. But i'm sure he has many times post WC 2003 when his pace hadn't dropped off.

 

[Craig]

Another free hit.

 

[Jono]

SA don't appeal properly when its out. Done it so many times this series. Ponting's LBWs in game 2.

 

[Jono]

That's how you appeal Johan!

 

[Nate]

Wow. And then that gets given.

Botha close to my least favourite player ftr.

 

[Craig]

Hussey out.

 

[Evermind]

Why why oh why could it not have been Ponting?

 

[social]

Hussey out.

Poor decision - evens it up

 

[pasag]

Can't stand that shot. So low percentage.
