***Official*** South Africa In Australia

Bog us down? He was only in for 9 balls. Probably worth looking at the scorecard.

Jeez Steyn gets a lot of wickets with crap deliveries

He does but he bowls a lot of garbage as well - he's like a batsman in form, good and bad shots come off

Much much better than Johnson who always seem to get wickets through crap stuff. And Steyn got his fair share dropped off jaffas.

Hasn't Steyn got a yorker

He has indeed. Just that he uses them sparsely.

Looking at Ponting's innings....damn he was looking beautiful (no homo).

He looked like having bipolar disorder. One time he was looking god like with sweetly timed drives through cover and mid on. Next over, he'd be all at sea, poking, probing, hanging his bat out. Not to say the umpire didnt give a caught behind.

 

[Precambrian]

not as bad as the T20 WC celebration

One of the very few times we won a World series. Yet, it was a bit OTT.

Too bad it was a world cup in one of the more useless versions of this great game..

Useless from old school viewpoint. Did nothing wrong in increasing the marketability and finances of the board, which is good.

I predict a woeful performance from Johnson tonight, followed by an expensive Tait.

How was Marsh today? Did he bog us down?

Marsh has had an awesome career so far as an opener for Australia in ODI cricket, so really don't know know what you talking about, Marsh certainly isn't no Hayden or Gilchrist, but he is a fine batsman in his own right, i think you are confusing his batting with his father' style of batting...

Typical Aussie arrogance.

Typical Aussie arrogance.

Very good.

Just need to get rid of the pitch and the wickets, set some catchers behind the stumps, give all the fielders a glove and legalise chucking.

Sounds like a plan.

Never let the facts get in the way of a decent bias.

 

[Zinzan]

Wow - This is some batting display from Gibbs, I'm sure even the most one-eyed Australian is appreciating this stroke-play - Shades of Nathan Astle at his very best for mine

 

[Nate]

Haha, SHOT! off Johnson.

 

[Zinzan]

^ especially the way he's using his feet to the fast bowlers

 

[_Ed_]

Haha, Mark Taylor. Sounding so surprised.

"that was a SHORT ball!"
"that was a DEFENSIVE shot!"

 

[Top_Cat]

Haha, Mark Taylor. Sounding so surprised.

"that was a SHORT ball!"
"that was a DEFENSIVE shot!"

In fairness, he'd be in the best position to identify both better than most.

 

[duffer]

Bad shot that. Opened the door a bit for Australia.

 

[Nate]

As I said before, apart from Hilf, we're in teh trouble. (Y)

 

[inbox24]

Hey Nnanden are you a Christian?

Escaped your attention he's been spanked just as hard as the others?

The Aussies are in trouble. End of.

 

[Nate]

Hey Nnanden are you a Christian?

Yes. Are you a Bulldogs supporter?
